Tania Schulze with Gradyent
Scott MacKenzie hosts a podcast celebrating industry professionals and their innovations. In this episode, he discusses the application of digital twins to steam networks with Tania Schulze from Gradyent.ai. Tania explains that digital twins are digital representations of physical assets, enabling real-time monitoring, optimization, and predictive maintenance. She highlights the benefits of using physics-based models combined with machine learning to create accurate digital twins for steam networks. Tania emphasizes the importance of data quality and the challenges of implementing digital twins in existing plants. She also discusses the potential for significant energy savings and improved safety through digital twin technology.
Paul Oberly and Tangi Meyer with Dassault Systems
Industrial Talk is onsite at OMG, Q1 Meeting and talking to Paul Oberly and Tangi Meyer with Dassault Systemes about “Virtual Twin and digitization of processes!”
Scott MacKenzie hosts the Industrial Talk podcast, featuring Tangi Mayer and Paul Oberly from Dassault Systems. Tangi, a senior strategic planner, and Paul, the lead for Delmia augmented experience in North America, discuss the integration of advanced technologies like computer vision and AI to create a “virtual twin” of real-world manufacturing processes. This digital representation allows for efficient, error-free production by connecting the virtual and real worlds, enhancing safety, and optimizing workflows. They emphasize the importance of data in driving business operations and the potential for AR to revolutionize manufacturing and inspection processes, making them more intuitive and efficient.
John Turner with Gafcon Digital
Scott MacKenzie hosts John Turner, CEO of Gafcon Digital, to discuss the application of digital twins in data centers and the construction industry. Turner emphasizes the inefficiencies in current construction processes due to silos and the need for a digital building lifecycle. He highlights the importance of digitizing construction through BIM and integrating data from various sources like reality capture. Turner explains the benefits of a digital twin, including predictability in safety, cost, and schedule, and mentions that buildings consume 41% of the energy in the US. He advocates for a transformational approach to organizational change management to achieve these efficiencies.
Doug Kiehl with Eli Lilly
Karen Quatromoni, Director of Public Relations at OMG, introduces the podcast series and its focus on the Digital Twin Consortium (DTC). Bill Hoffman, OMG CEO and Chairman, interviews Doug Kiehl, Senior Director at Eli Lilly and co-chair of the DTC’s new pharma and regulatory Working Group. Doug discusses his 30-year tenure at Eli Lilly, the formation of the Disruptive/Transformative Technologies team, and the drivers for digital twin technology in pharma, including industry trajectory and regulatory expectations. He highlights the importance of cross-industry collaboration and the potential of digital twins in manufacturing, compliance, and process validation, emphasizing their role in expediting product development and improving patient outcomes.
Sarah Causey with Implexus Lab
Industrial Talk is onsite at OMG, Q1 Meeting and talking to Sarah Causey, CEO of Implexus Lab about “Digital Twin – Real efficiency, real savings to optimizing your building assets”.
Scott MacKenzie hosts an industrial podcast from the OMG Q1 meeting in Reston, Virginia, celebrating industry professionals. Sarah Causey from Implexus Labs discusses her transition from architecture to digital twins, emphasizing the importance of integrating live data from IoT for more efficient building management. She highlights the misconception that energy consumption decreased during the pandemic and explains how digital twins can optimize energy use by creating dynamic systems responsive to occupancy. Causey also mentions the financial benefits of digital twins and the role of the consortium in standardizing processes and enhancing trustworthiness in the industry.
