Digital twinning in bearing technology is a modern approach in the development, testing, and maintenance of bearings, utilizing digital simulation to accurately model and analyze real bearings. This process enables engineers and developers to create virtual copies of physical bearings to predict their behavior under various operating conditions, leading to a better understanding of their performance, lifespan, and potential failures.

In practice, this means that each bearing has its digital twin, which is a virtual model simulating all aspects of its real counterpart. This model is constantly updated with real data obtained from bearing operation, allowing not only detailed analysis of the current condition but also prediction of future outcomes and optimization of maintenance.

The use of digital twins in bearing technology brings several advantages, including reducing the costs of development and testing, extending bearing lifespan, reducing maintenance time and costs, and, most importantly, preventing breakdowns through predictive maintenance. All of this contributes to increased efficiency and reliability in various industrial applications where bearings are a crucial component.
