We are proud to announce that the latest research from Pilot Project 2 has been published as an SCI article in the international journal Systems. This achievement highlights the innovative progress being made in advancing digitalization for modular and maritime production.

The study introduces a digital twin framework for modular production, designed to automatically recognize new production modules with the help of a machine vision system. This capability allows the digital twin to adapt to new production environments with minimal manual intervention.

A key strength of the framework lies in its self-building and adjustable simulation model, which ensures scalability and adaptability across various industrial contexts. Within the scope of Pilot Project 2, this is particularly valuable for applications in the maritime industry, where modular production plays an increasingly important role.

By combining:

  • a user-friendly design,
  • automated module detection, and
  • self-building simulation models,

the framework significantly reduces the effort required to implement digitalization. At the same time, it strengthens the competitiveness and sustainability of maritime industries, helping companies embrace the next generation of production technologies.

This publication not only reflects the success of Pilot Project 2 but also underscores the potential of digital twin technologies to support innovation, flexibility, and efficiency in European industries.
