The digital twin technology enables supply chain managers to better control their stocks. For instance, the IoT sensors deployed in smart stores use the data through IoT sensors and analyze them with the digital twin technology and big data analytics to increase the shopper value and improve the efficiency in supply chain in real-time. This technology growth is highly dependent on the manufacturing and automotive sectors. The uneven fluctuations such as fluctuations in vehicle sales and foreign exchange fluctuations in these sectors impacts the revenue and growth rate of the digital twin industry.
 

Product design and development application is expected to dominate the U.S. digital twin market

Product design and development application in the U.S. held more than 50% market share in 2019 due to increasing demand to predict accurate outcome, rising needs to improve product performance, the ability to rapidly detect the faults, and build potentially better products. Digital twin expedites the designing process, leading to a faster time-to-market new product. Additionally, digital twin of products also compares the actual product behavior to its design and behavior deviations are assessed to influence future development iterations of the product.
 

The digital twin supports the acceleration of product development timeline at reduced cost due to the rapidly growing adoption of IoT coupled with the proliferation of smart connected devices. The emergence of increasingly favorable storage & computing costs, the number of use cases, and possibilities to enable a twin technology has greatly expanded, in turn driving the business value. The use of this technology in transportation is anticipated to change the driving experience and reduce the fatality rate with the digital twin of vehicles being monitored in real-time.
 

As the automotive and industrial sectors have experienced significant losses in terms of decline in demand and disruption of supply chains due to the COVID-19 pandemic, digital twins are emerging as excellent tools for cost optimization across the industry value chains.

In the UK digital twin market, the aerospace and defense segment is projected to witness growth of over 40% during 2020-2026 owing to growing demand of aircraft digital twin for feeding real-time data that helps the airlines to reduce maintenance cost as well as improves the reliability and optimizes the performance of aircrafts.
 

For instance, in September 2018, Boeing announced that it was able to save up to a 40% improvement in the first-time quality of the parts & system to manufacture commercial & military airplanes by using the digital twin asset development model. This model is anticipated to be the prominent driver of production efficiency improvement. The defense sector is increasingly embracing the digital twin technology to ensure less causality and enable efficient performance of the weapons and other equipment.
 

Digital twin technology is anticipated to diagnose the fault in the equipment in real-time as well as offer predictive maintenance to avoid faults and enabling the product efficiency. For instance, in April 2019, the new Aegis virtual twin system completed the first live-free engagement on the U.S. Navy’s Arleigh Bruke-class destroyer USS Thomas Hudner (DDG 116). The virtual prototype is compact in size. Sailors on the destroyer operated the virtual twin to fire a missile against an incoming target.
