Digital Twins Give CNC Machining a Head Start at Sikorsky, a Lockheed Martin company. 

Model-based manufacturing and the digital thread enable Sikorsky to reduce lead times by machining helicopter components.

SIEMENS  Sinumerik One, the first digital native CNC.

10 March 2022


It creates the machine controller and the associated digital twin from one engineering system and thus contributes to seamless integration of hardware and software.  Sinumerik One is setting new standards for CNC productivity, performance, and digitalization.

With Sinumerik One, machine tool builders can virtually map their entire development processes — significantly reducing the product development phase and time-to-market for new machines. The virtual preparation of machine commissioning is done and it  reduces the duration of actual commissioning considerably.

The universal digital twin for product (machine tool) and production (machining process), significantly reduces machining time.

EDUCATIONAL DIGITAL TWIN CNC PLATFORM - Purdue

The EDUCATIONAL DIGITAL TWIN provides Purdue students using the Gene Haas Manufacturing Lab access to advanced computer numerical control manufacturing machines along with the latest carbide tooling from Kennametal and modern fixturing from Raptor.

The EDUCATIONAL DIGITAL TWIN transparently packages thousands of hours of experience with the Center’s tools, work holding, and machining parameters in a 1:1 design and simulation environment built on Autodesk’s Fusion 360 cloud platform. It helps in  eliminating costly redesigns and crashes. In this environment users can design, innovate, and collaborate virtually, in their own time, wherever they are, before manufacturing in the Center.

The system is maintained by a very tight cloud-based knowledge dissemination loop. For example, in less than a day a new speed/feed for a specific material and tool will go from validation in the machine via the cloud to the hundreds of student designers.

The Digital Twin

A HEIDENHAIN programming station is an exact copy of a control. It can also become a nearly perfect model of the machine: with its Digital Twin, the HEIDENHAIN Service department brings the shop floor to the front office, giving you the peace of mind that programs created with the programming station or CAM software will run properly on the machine.
