Kellanova, the company that makes Pringles in Europe, spent four years and roughly $5M working with Siemens to build a real time digital twin of its potato chip dough at a factory in Poland. The problem it solves is variability. More than 200 parameters affect the final chip, from flour particle size to the humidity of the dough to where and when the potatoes were harvested, and workers previously corrected for all of it by hand and by feel. Now sensors capture 200 data points every millisecond and feed a machine learning model that recommends recipe adjustments before problems appear. A human operator still approves each change. The line has seen 13 percent less waste, 7 percent lower energy use and a 10 percent capacity gain. Digital twins have been a concept in manufacturing for years, but this is what it looks like when one finally starts paying for itself.
