About the project

The digital twin mimics the physical system, enabling analysis, testing, and simulation of the system in a virtual environment. The development of a digital twin for the shop floor of the Hands-on Engineering Lab is an essential step toward improving the design and manufacturing processes. A digital twin is a focused application of the CPS that provides more practical values and details on implementation. It is introduced as a pragmatic way for seamless integration and fusion. As a part of a research and development project, I was tasked to prepare a concept for the design.

Why this Layout?

The layout provides the following benefit:

  • Multiple well-ventilated welding stations
  • Tool room for resource management
  • Better utilization of space
  • Improved student management
  • Improved safety
