Mitsubishi Electric Develops Edge Digital Twin Technology for Real-time Compensation of Errors in CNC Machine Tools

TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (TOKYO: 6503) announced today that in collaboration with RWTH Aachen University in Germany, it has developed a technology that uses a digital twin to correct machine-tool errors in real time on machine tools equipped with computer numerical control (CNC1). Tests showed that the technology can reduce errors caused by slight deformation of machined parts due to the force of a cutting tool by up to 50%.2 This results in fewer mistakes during.
