Technological Transfer Under the Conditions of Digitalization of Products and Processes

Abstract

Technological development is largely determined by technology transfer, which is conditioned by the absorption capacity of new technologies, and new technologies are deeply digitized technologies. Success depends on creating basic digital skills, both technical and human, developing digital infrastructure, ensuring accessibility to digital technologies. In the context of Industry 4.0 technologies, the efforts to design products with pronounced physical-cybernetic elements are important, but especially those aimed at creating digital twins, gradually moving from intermediate variants of digital model and digital shadow. Digital twin creation models refer to the life cycle with emphasis on its stages. The paper proposes a digital twin model based on the technological function, in which the modification of the properties is manifested by restructuring the internal functions of the operator, operand and interface. The central place in this model belongs to the interface, which reflects the multitude of physical-technical processes at different scales of macro, meso, micro analysis characteristic of objects and processes in machine building.
