Abstract
Intelligent digital twins (IDT), as the next evolutionary stage of digital twins, have the potential to accelerate and optimize processes within companies. The intelligent twin presented here independently analyzes 3D CAD data and automatically conducts a physical simulation of the assembly. Utilizing the IDT optimized assembly, reduces production costs and accelerates the production planning process. This specific use case illustrates the broader possibilities and advantages of IDTs, offering valuable insights for their transferability.

Article
Digital twins are already widely used in industry and represent state of the art technology [1-4], yet their full potential remains largely untapped. A more recent development in the field is that of intelligent digital twins (IDTs) [5], which are capable of performing tasks independently and making situational decisions. In [5], an intelligent digital twin is defined by its synchronization with a real-world object, active data acquisition from the physical environment and the ability to simulate behavior. A broader definition is provided in [6], where an intelligent digital twin is …
