CONCEPTUAL MODEL OF A PLM SYSTEM FOR LIFECYCLE MANAGEMENT OF CUTTING TOOLS USING DIGITAL TWINS: PREDICTINGTWINS
This paper presents a conceptual model for integrating digital twins into a Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) system, aiming to enhance the lifecycle management of cutting tools in high-performance manufacturing. The proposed model integrates key lifecycle stages—tool requirements analysis, conceptual design, prototyping, manufacturing, and usage—through a cohesive workflow.
