Digital Twin & DPP

Product data must be transparent and traceable. With the Digital Product Passport (DPP), the EU is setting the expectation that product-related information will be available throughout the entire product lifecycle.

Developed by M&M Software, AAS.TwinEngine is a modern open-source framework for digital twins and Digital Product Passports. It creates digital twins based on standardized Asset Administration Shells (AAS), providing the foundation for use cases such as the DPP. By connecting machines, products, and components with their structured digital data, it enables consistent and interoperable digital product information across the value chain.

The framework is available on GitHub and comes with documentation, sample data, and community support. It runs in cloud, on-premises, or hybrid environments, making it easy to get started quickly and at no cost. It is an ideal foundation for pilot projects involving digital twins and the Digital Product Passport.

Together with industry partners such as Meta-Level, we continuously enhance AAS.TwinEngine to ensure it remains practical, scalable, and aligned with real-world requirements. Get started today: download the framework, install it, and build digital twins based on your existing product and asset data.

Workshop: Build a Strategic Data Foundation with AAS

The Asset Administration Shell (AAS) provides a structured, interoperable, and standards-compliant approach to managing product data. It forms the foundation for digital twins, Digital Product Passports, and secure data exchange across organizational boundaries. Let's rethink your data strategy together, using AAS as the foundation and the DPP as a practical first use case.

"Without data, there is no Asset Administration Shell. But where does that data come from, how do you connect it effectively, and when does it become a usable digital twin? These are questions we hear time and again. That's why we developed AAS.TwinEngine: a solution that brings together information from multiple data sources, orchestrates data flows, and transforms data into use-case-specific Asset Administration Shells. This enables companies to build the foundation for digital twins, Digital Product Passports, and other data-driven applications."
