Digital Twins (DTs) are intended to be utilized for a wide range of applications, promising benefits like visualization, monitoring, simulation and control of a physical system. Not only the development of a DT for a production facility is a time-consuming task, but also to keep the virtual counterpart up to date in the use phase. In this work, the implementation of an industrial-scale DT of an automotive supplier production site based on a Discrete-Event Simulation (DES) model with self-optimization capabilities for easier maintainability and increased simulation accuracy is presented.
