Technologies and concepts as digital factory, reverse engineering, 3D modelling, simulation of manufacturing and logistics systems, transform design into a virtual environment. These progressive technologies enable time reduction, thus also reducing development costs. Digital representation of manufacturing system have a great importance in connection with the development of intelligent factories and application of digital twin concept. This paper presents approach to manufacturing systems design using progressive digital technologies.
