The easiest way to a valid AAS

twinfix helps companies, developers and AAS users validate Asset Administration Shells (AAS) and AASX packages quickly and reliably. 

The web application validates Asset Administration Shells against the IDTA AAS 3.1 specification, identifies technical and structural issues, and automatically resolves many common errors. With its generic validation against any Submodel Template (SMT), twinfix goes one step further: it ensures that Digital Twins are not only technically compliant but also aligned with the semantic and domain-specific requirements of their data models.

This enables organisations to reduce validation effort, improve the quality of their Digital Twins and establish the foundation for interoperable data exchange across the entire value chain.

twinfix is a component of our twinsphere Suite.

Plattform für die Bereitstellung von Verwaltungsschalen in Drittsystemen

twinsphere bietet Ihrem Unternehmen eine sichere, robuste und skalierbare Plattform zur Bereitstellung von Verwaltungsschalen (Asset Administration Shell). Die AAS Plattform kann sowohl für den interaktiven Zugriff durch Endanwender über ein Produktportal oder den benutzerfreundlichen twinsphere AAS Viewer genutzt werden. Die Plattform dient aber auch als Basis zur Integration in Drittsysteme, etwa im Rahmen einer Maschine-zu-Maschine Kommunikation. Die twinsphere suite unterstützt Ihr Unternehmen dabei, Digitale Zwillinge auf Basis der Verwaltungsschalen zu registrieren, zu validieren, zu lokalisieren und über eine standarisierte API abzurufen.   

Dokumentenübergabe nach VDI 2770 

 

twinsphere unterstützt die Digitalen Herstellerinformationen der VDI 2770 Norm und die Anforderungen aus dem Digital Data Chain Consortium (DDCC), indem es Unternehmen ermöglicht, ihre Dokumentation und Daten effizient zu verwalten und zu verteilen. Der VDI-2770 Adapter erlaubt zusammen mit dem ebenfalls angebotenen PDF-A Konverter die Ausleitung von Dokumenten in einen VDI-2770 konformen Dokument-Container, um diese Informationen zum Beispiel an Sharecat zu überführen.

Kunden können mit diesem Zusatzdienst einfach automatisierte Dokumentübermittlung in der Prozessindustrie nutzen. Und das, ohne ihre technischen Redaktionssysteme anzupassen oder ein komplexes und teures System- und Datenintegrationsprojekt durchführen zu müssen.  

Gut informiert entlang der Wertschöpfungskette  


Auch für die Übermittlung von Informationen entlang der Wertschöpfungskette (etwa an Zulieferer oder Kunden) hat twinsphere passgenaue Lösungen. Stellen Sie Ihren Kunden einen einfachen Zugang zum Digitalen Typenschild oder stets aktuelle Produktdokumentationen interaktiv oder maschinenlesbar bereit.

Der Nachrichten-Service bietet dazu Benachrichtigungen über Änderungen im Datenbestand der Digitalen Zwillinge und lässt sich beispielsweise nutzen, um Käufer eines bestimmten Typs einer Komponente über die Bereitstellung einer neuen Betriebs- oder Wartungsanweisung zu informieren. Vernetzen Sie diesen Nachrichten-Dienst noch mit dem ebenfalls angebotenen Push-Service, so lässt sich statt der Information über die Änderung gleich eine ganz neue Verwaltungsschale an Ihre Geschäftspartner übermitteln.  

Digitaler Produktpass as a Service  

Die Software-as-a-Service (SaaS)-Plattform twinsphere ermöglicht es Unternehmen, Digitale Zwillinge basierend auf der Verwaltungsschale effizient entlang der gesamten Wertschöpfungskette zu implementieren. Sie können darauf aufbauend Anwendungsfälle wie den Digitalen Produktpass (DPP) oder das CO2-Reporting Ihrer Produkte (Product Carbon Footprint – PCF) umsetzen und sich somit schon heute auf zukünftige regulatorische Anforderungen einstellen.

Durch die Nutzung des Metamodells der IDTA, der Bereitstellung relevanter Informationen (wie technischer Daten oder Dokumentation) gemäß ECLASS-Klassifikation, einer standardkonformen API und einem ausgeklügelten Event-Service gelingt dies interoperabel und ohne komplexe Integrationsprojekte.

What is twinfix?

twinfix is a validation and remediation service for Asset Administration Shell (AAS) packages in the AASX format. The solution validates Asset Administration Shells against the IDTA AAS specification, identifies structural issues and can automatically resolve selected problems.

What is an Asset Administration Shell (AAS)?

The Asset Administration Shell (AAS) is the standardised digital representation of an asset. It forms the foundation of the Digital Twin and enables the interoperable exchange of information across the entire value chain. 

What is an AASX package?

An AASX package is the standardised exchange format for Asset Administration Shells. It contains the Asset Administration Shell, its submodels, and any related files and information in a structured and portable format.

Why should Asset Administration Shells be validated?

Errors in Asset Administration Shells can prevent Digital Twins from being processed correctly by platforms or lead to the loss of information. Validation ensures that an AAS complies with the requirements of the IDTA specification and is technically and structurally sound. 

What does twinfix check in an Asset Administration Shell?

twinfix validates AASX packages against the latest IDTA AAS specification. This includes checks of the Asset Administration Shell structure, references, identifiers, data types and other technical requirements. In addition, submodels can be validated against defined Submodel Templates (SMTs).

What is the difference between technical and semantic validation?

Technical validation verifies that an Asset Administration Shell complies with the specification and is structured correctly. Semantic validation goes a step further by checking whether the content of a submodel conforms to the requirements of a data model or Submodel Template. twinfix supports both approaches by validating against the IDTA specification as well as any Submodel Template. 

What are Submodel Templates (SMTs)?

Submodel Templates define the structure and domain-specific requirements of a submodel within an Asset Administration Shell. They specify which information must be included and how it should be structured. Validation against SMTs helps ensure that Digital Twins are not only technically correct but also semantically consistent.

Can twinfix automatically correct errors in AASX packages?

Yes. twinfix identifies a wide range of common technical and structural issues and can automatically correct selected problems. These include, for example, invalid identifiers, incorrect value type assignments and structural inconsistencies. The corrected AASX package can then be downloaded directly.

Which use cases is twinfix suitable for?

twinfix is suitable for validating AASX exports from CAD, ERP and engineering systems, ensuring the quality of Digital Twins, preparing Asset Administration Shells for deployment on AAS platforms, and integrating validation into automated development workflows and CI/CD pipelines.

What role does the Asset Administration Shell play in the Digital Product Passport (DPP)?

The Asset Administration Shell is widely regarded as one of the key technological foundations of the Digital Product Passport (DPP). It enables the structured provision of product-related information throughout the entire lifecycle and supports the standardised exchange of data between manufacturers, operators and other partners across the value chain.

Which AAS version does twinfix support?

twinfix validates Asset Administration Shells against the current IDTA AAS 3.1 specification. This enables organisations to ensure that their Digital Twins comply with the latest requirements of the standard. 

How does twinfix support the quality assurance of Digital Twins?

twinfix reduces manual validation effort, identifies technical and semantic issues at an early stage, and improves the quality of Asset Administration Shells and submodels. This helps prevent integration issues and increases the interoperability of Digital Twins. 

Can twinfix be used for Catena-X, Factory-X or DPP projects?

Yes. Wherever Asset Administration Shells are used as a standardised data foundation, twinfix supports quality assurance. Validating AASX packages and submodels helps organisations reliably meet the requirements of initiatives such as the Catena-X and Factory-X ecosystems, as well as future Digital Product Passport (DPP) scenarios.
