Jakarta, INTI - The transformation of the manufacturing industry in Indonesia is gradually shifting toward efficiency, flexibility, and planning accuracy amid intense global competition.
In this context, the use of digital twin technology is considered a strategic step to accelerate the implementation of Industry 4.0 while strengthening the operational resilience of the national industry.
Mitsubishi Electric Indonesia demonstrates its commitment to support smart manufacturing transformation by strengthening digital manufacturing solutions and ongoing industry education initiatives. This step aligns with the industry's need for more modern, scalable, and data-driven production systems.
The transformation also aligns with the government's Making Indonesia 4.0 agenda. Through this initiative, the manufacturing sector is encouraged to adopt cutting-edge technology to increase productivity and strengthen competitiveness in the global market.
Companies are Required to Test Their Production System
Lately, today's industrial transformation is no longer solely focused on automation. Companies are also required to have the ability to predict, validate, and optimize the entire production process even before the system is physically implemented in the factory.
Through simulations, companies can virtually test production systems, from production line layout design, material flow, and the interaction between machines and robots. This digital representation allows industry players to evaluate performance and refine designs before production facilities are built or modified.
Several technology companies have begun strengthening digital manufacturing solutions while simultaneously promoting industry education regarding digital twin implementation. One example is Mitsubishi Electric, which has also held seminars and technology demonstrations for manufacturing industry players in various industrial areas.
Through these efforts, the use of digital twin technology is expected to help companies build more adaptive, efficient, and sustainable production systems while accelerating the implementation of Industry 4.0 in the Indonesian manufacturing sector.
Conclusion
Indonesia’s manufacturing sector is increasingly adopting digital technologies to improve efficiency, flexibility, and production planning amid global competition. Technologies such as digital twin allow companies to simulate and optimize production systems before implementation, supporting the goals of Making Indonesia 4.0. Companies like Mitsubishi Electric are also promoting digital manufacturing solutions and industry education to help accelerate Industry 4.0 adoption.
