?Digital twining? is one the main ways of establishing data channels in cyber-physical systems combining the outputs of a virtual model with real time data collected by sensors. The purpose to this chapter is to outline the digital twin of a cyber-physical production system. The System Dynamics paradigm to the case of a shop-floor factory devoted to cloud manufacturing is applied. The digital twin uses data from the real production line, providing assistance to maintenance procedures triggered by inconsistencies between the real and the virtual processes.
