Abstract

This paper approaches the creation of a digital twin based on a real measuring process in order to convert it into digital form as a virtual model within a selected software-based virtualization environment. Subsequently, a real-world data comparative flow is obtained from sensors; afterward, analysis within their calculated uncertainties and the digital twin data values are made. Such treated real measuring process data are inserted into a database, from where they are compared with the virtual digital twin data, where necessary trending-based analysis is made, for the purpose of proactive maintenance and the measuring process optimization. Such collected data are also stored for later-planned analysis within the Industry 4.0 concept in the form of big data databases.
