Imagine you have an exact virtual copy of a real CNC machine. This digital twin considerably expands the learning opportunities in training and opens up numerous didactic perspectives.
It is a true-to-life replica of the real machine tool used in the machine shop. Interactive simulations allow trainees to improve their skills without the risk of making mistakes or wasting material. The digital twin also offers the opportunity to play through different scenarios and thus develop a deeper understanding of how CNC machines work.
The digital twin contains the geometries of the machine, fixtures, tools and the controls used, including the version and all parameter settings. The teaching system thus forms the basis for understanding and applying Industry 4.0.
