Aras Software Creates and Manages Digital Twins –
Summary
The Aras Digital Twin Core application provides powerful new functionality for defining the digital twin configuration – the virtual representation of a specific physical asset or unique product instance providing the necessary context to interpret and analyze Internet of Things (IoT) sensor data. “As a real-world asset is maintained, updated and retrofitted, companies need the ability to easily reflect the real-time accurate status of the digital twin configuration,” said Peter Schroer, Founder and CEO of Aras. “Without an accurate configuration twin, companies risk analysis misinterpretations that lead to incorrect actions, safety issues and liability scenarios.” Aras Digital Twin Core creates and manages the exact digital representation of an individual physical asset and its changes over time. Connectors to existing systems – such as ERP, PDM, CAD and others – provide connectivity to derive and persist configuration twin data from other sources and ensure digital thread traceability across the lifecycle. The ability to manage an assets configuration as it changes overtime is a foundational element to an effective digital twin strategy,” said Jeff Hojlo, Program Director of Product Innovation at IDC.
