TWINS
"The Transformative Power of
Industrial Digital Twins”
Introduction
The digital twin provides a replicated digital version of operations, buildings, rigs, and industrial facilities. These digital models enable navigation, viewing, measurements, overlay of additional information, and can be linked with real-time data. This setup assists facilities management in optimizing management, reducing expenses, conducting crucial analyses, enabling remote viewing and training, and enhancing connectivity between all components.
Benefits of Digital Twins
- Real-time Monitoring: Organizations gain immediate access to operational data and information through real-time monitoring, enabling swift responses to issues or opportunities. This agility enhances operational efficiency and responsiveness.
- Enhanced Collaboration with Efficient Decision-Making: Real-time monitoring fosters collaboration across geographical boundaries, granting decision-makers remote access to critical data and insights for faster, more informed decision-making.
- Reduced Downtime/Turnaround: Digital Twins optimize maintenance scheduling, minimizing downtime by proactively planning for maintenance activities.
- Improved Performance: Technologies like Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) boost performance across various sectors. In asset-intensive industries, IoT sensors integrated with Digital Twins monitor machinery to prevent breakdowns and enhance overall efficiency.
- Cost Savings: Digital Twins drive operational cost reductions by enabling predictive analytics, enhancing efficiency, and delivering data-driven insights. In asset-intensive sectors, digital replicas streamline processes, saving time and reducing errors.
- Enhanced Safety: Digital Twins enhance safety by reducing the need for frequent site visits to gather information, as critical data is accessible through the virtual twin.
- Reduced Scope 3 Emissions: Implementing Digital Twins across multiple locations reduces carbon emissions by minimizing physical visits to sites. This efficient monitoring and management approach offered by Digital Twins supports environmentally friendly operations across dispersed operations.
The Challenges
Digital twins, virtual replicas of physical assets or systems, offer numerous benefits but come with challenges:
- Data Issues: Gathering sufficient and reliable data from various sources is crucial for accurate modeling, but incomplete or poor-quality data can affect reliability.
- Integration Complexity: Linking digital twins with existing systems is vital but challenging due to compatibility issues with complex legacy systems.
- Technical Skills: Developing digital twins demands expertise in data capture, data science, AI, and machine learning, yet skilled professionals in these areas are often in short supply.
- Cost Concerns: The expense of developing and implementing digital twins, especially when retrofitting or adopting new technologies, can be prohibitive for many organizations.
- Security Risks: Storing vast data sets makes digital twins vulnerable to cyberattacks, with potential privacy breaches due to containing sensitive information.
- Navigation Performance: High-detail models like BIM, CAD, or GIS used in digital twins require robust computing resources, leading to navigation delays and limitations on smaller devices.
The Power of
Photogrammetry
Photogrammetry involves gathering object information from photos taken at various angles and locations, enabling precise calculations to aid data collection. This data can be used to recreate comprehensive 360-degree environments of real-world scenes
The Steps
Capturing the photographs using a terrestrial 3D scanner
Identifying corresponding points between the images
Reconstructing the 3D geometry of the object or area
Be there wihtout
