Integrated Product Structure and Configuration as a Prerequisite for the Digital Twin
In the case of complex, multi-variant products such as a vehicle, the digital twin is the foundation for validating all possible variants of the product. At the same time, the variance is the driver for the complexity. Consequently, it is hard to integrate all relevant aspects required for the product development process in an integrated product model. Together with a customer, PROSTEP has therefore developed a methodology that anchors the variance more firmly at the level of
individual vehicle modules. It is described in this white paper.
