The simulation of production processes using a Digital Twin is a promising tool for predictive planning, analysis of existing systems or process-parallel monitoring. In the process industry, the concept of Digital Twin provides significant support for process optimization. The generation of the Digital Twin of an already existing plant is a major challenge – in particular for small and medium-sized enterprises. In this sense, the twinning of the existing physical environment has got a particular importance due to high effort. Shape segmentation from unstructured (e.g. point cloud data) is a core step of the digital twinning process for industrial facilities. This is an inherent issue of Product Lifecycle Management how to acquire data of existing goods. The practice of Digital Twin is described based on object recognition by using methods of Machine Learning. The exploration of the pipeline semantics presents a particular challenge. The highly automated procedure for the generation of Digital Twin is described based on a use case of a biogas plant. Commercial deployment, pitfalls, drawbacks and potential for further developments are further explored. |
