Key concept - digital twin
The "digital twin" concept is an industrial production concept that enables physical objects and systems to be digitally mapped before, during or after production. The aim is to optimise processes and minimise failure rates. For this reason, artificial intelligence will also be increasingly used in the service sector in the future. For the industrial logistics sector, this innovation means greater efficiency and planning accuracy.
Future trends
Industry 4.0 has a significant influence on the structure and development of the industrial products and services sector. The need for software expertise is constantly increasing - software-based services are already an integral part of existing business models.
Future materials also enable completely new approaches for products and production processes. Materials and material combinations such as laser crystals or customisable plastics are being developed in laboratories and brought to market ever faster. In addition, innovative technologies and digital networking will be used to optimise the supply chains of modern logistics services.
