The scope in the NPI is showing how a Digital Twin could help the MIS. This paper integrates Siemens PLM software as DMT called Tecnomatix Process Simulate (TPS), Totally Integrated Automation (TIA) and PLCSIM advanced. In this direction, it is important to accelerate Manufacturing Integrated Systems (MIS) by improving the automation not only in the NPI, but also in the PLM. Sometimes a new product could be only the development of a single component and/or an entire manufacturing process including complex instruments and controls.

New Product Introduction (NPI) demands large effort in digitalization and virtual simulation through the PLM process. Trying to improve Product Life-cycle Management (PLM), some companies are trying to implement DMT to create Digital Twins (DT). The new industrial revolution called Industry 4.0 embraces diverse Digital Manufacturing Tools (DMT).
