Digital twins and industrial digitalization
Maurer Labs builds digital twins that join the 3D model of an asset with the data it produces: sensors, information systems and simulations, visualized in real time from the browser.
What we do
Digital twins
The asset's 3D model connected to its real data, to see it, follow it and operate it from a single interface.
Sensor and system integration
Connection of sensors, PLCs, ERPs and other sources with the 3D scene, as described in our article on sensors in the naval industry.
Simulation visualization
Simulation results shown on the 3D model so that engineering and business can read them without opening the calculation software.
Process discovery and digitalization
Analysis of current processes, organization of data structures and migration to unified systems.
Who it is for
- Shipyards and shipowners that want to follow a vessel or a fleet from a 3D model with real data.
- Industrial plants with sensors and systems that do not talk to each other today.
- Engineering firms that produce simulations nobody else can read afterwards.
How we work
- 01
Process discovery
Which asset, which data exists, where it lives and which decisions you want to make with it.
- 02
Model and connection
We prepare the 3D model and connect the first data sources to validate the architecture with real data.
- 03
Extension in phases
Each phase adds sources, views or simulations on top of what already works and is in use.

Frequently asked questions
What exactly is a digital twin?
A digital representation of a physical asset (a vessel, a machine, a plant) connected to the data that asset produces, so that the model reflects its real state and can be used to analyze or simulate it.
Do we need sensors installed before we start?
No. You can start from the 3D model and the data that already exists in your systems (ERP, maintenance, spreadsheets) and add sensors once the architecture is validated.
Can the digital twin be viewed from the browser?
Yes. We build the 3D interfaces for the web, with the same technology our configurators and viewers use, and also on-premise when the data cannot leave the company.
What does the cost of a digital twin depend on?
On the number and type of data sources, the state of the 3D models, the integrations with existing systems and the scope of the first phase. That is why we work in phases, with a bounded first delivery.
