So nutzt Krones digitale Zwillinge und KI in der Produktion
Krones AG
Krones, working with technology-ecosystem partners Ansys (part of Synopsys), Cadfem, Microsoft Azure, Nvidia (Omniverse/OpenUSD) and SoftServe, developed 'Agentic Digital Twins' that combine physically exact real-time simulation with AI agents capable of judgment and decision-making for beverage production lines. Simulation runs that previously took three to four hours now complete in under five minutes; the AI agents test scenarios and settings, optimize workflows, and transfer the best solutions to real equipment. The digital twin was used in developing Krones' new 'Ingeniq' line concept, presented at Drinktec 2025. Compute-intensive simulations run on Microsoft Azure using Nvidia's accelerated computing platform.
