Background
• In 2017 our team issued a call for Digital Twin manufacturing
framework examples.
• 10 examples were received from 4 countries
• We classified the examples and used them as input for a new ISO
23247 standard.
• The author then extended the classifications and used them to
measure the performance of a small scale digital twin framework.
• The team results are shown on slides 3 and 4, and the rest describe
the authors results.
