The digital twin for CNC training

Industry 4.0, Internet of Things (IoT) and the digital twin are the buzzwords that cannot be avoided when talking about digitization in manufacturing. In order to maintain their competitiveness in an international market, manufacturing companies must introduce modern digital process chains. This is usually a lengthy and technically complex process. From data storage, internet security, networking and the CAD-CAM-CNC process chain - there’s many different aspects of digitalization within manufacturing to consider. In order to be able to master these processes and to be well positioned for the future, existing employees must be trained for the new challenges. Even more important? Future employees should be familiar with the tools of digitization and have the technical skills needed to allow them to bring in fresh ideas to the company. Siemens Digital Industries Software is collaborating with engineering schools and educators to bring industry-grade software and curriculum to classrooms around the world. This enables Siemens to provide the industry with skilled graduates familiar with a fully digitalized approach to end-to-end product creation.
