Our digital twins are simulation models that mimic real machines. We apply physics and use measurement data from other machines to make our simulation models behave exactly as the real machine. And we are experts in letting these models run in real-time. This allows us to couple our digital twins to external control software. This is called Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) simulation. With HIL simulation only the physical part of a digital twin is used. The inputs (actuator setpoints) and outputs (sensor data) are coupled to a PLC running the control software. This allows you to test the control software without the need of a real machine
