German tech company Siemens opened a digital twin experience center in a bid to promote its technology. The center will enable companies to simulate design and production processes in a virtual space, its Korean business unit said, Wednesday.

The company said its Korea Digital Enterprise Center (KDEXc) is an open space for inspiration and collaboration with all industrial players, universities and others to exchange ideas and help them to achieve digital transformation.

"Industrial players have to embrace digitalization and transform swiftly and continuously," Thomas Schmid, head of Digital Industries at Siemens Korea, said during the opening ceremony.

"By combining domain expertise with our holistic portfolio offering, we support Korean companies of all sizes and industries to speed up their digital transformation in line with Industry 4.0 and to turn challenges into opportunities to become a digital enterprise with the support here at KDEXc."

The company said its experience space consists of five zones ― digital enterprise overview, process industry, discrete industry, future of industry and partner zone. The center allows visitors to take Siemens' technical training and actually test and demonstrate digital twin products.

In addition to KDEXc in Seoul, Siemens said it has been running 31 digital enterprise experience centers around the world including in Germany, Singapore and China.

The company elaborated on its digital twin system, saying that it is designed to support its customers by helping them to respond agilely to the rapidly changing business environment.

"At a time when we are undergoing rapid changes in our lives, the goal of our digital twin approach is to enable customers to have the exact same experience in a virtual space when they try to design the manufacturing process of their products," said Kim Tae-ho, general manager at Siemens Korea.
