"SPS talks: digital enterprise" will be held online on November 26, 2020: participants will explore highlights in 3D exhibition hall and have a dialogue with Siemens experts
New products, services, and solutions in the digital enterprise business portfolio will allow for greater production flexibility while meeting rapid changes in demand
Numerous practical exhibits and models clearly demonstrate the digital process covering the whole value chain
Based on SPS connect, an online platform of international electrical automation systems and Components Exhibition (SPS) in Nuremberg, Germany, Siemens will hold the "SPS talk: digital enterprise" activity online to comprehensively display the new products, services and solutions in its digital enterprise business portfolio, enabling discrete manufacturing and process industrial enterprises to cope with the rapidly changing market demand and environment. Siemens is committed to integrating advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, edge and cloud computing or additive manufacturing into automation and digital solutions, so as to enhance the intelligence and flexibility of production, thus leading to the further development of industrial production.
New products on display include ready to use open platform industrial edge, new edge devices and edge applications for driving. In addition, Siemens will launch a new generation of distributed drive system. This year's innovations also include multi vendor robot programming solutions based on Siemens TIA Poter, cloud connect innovative products for integrated data access, and new Internet and remote collaboration services.
The use of cloud and edge technology can realize the digitization of manufacturing process, making the operation more flexible and efficient. Siemens Industrial edge open platform can be used to create industrial Internet of things solutions at the machine level, which can help customers introduce more applications into the workshop in a shorter time, further improve the productivity of machines and plants, while reducing implementation and operating costs. Siemens is about to launch the industrial edge management system, a centralized and company wide infrastructure for managing networked edge devices and applications. Combined with existing hardware and software products, the industrial edge v1.0 open platform provides users with out of the box seamless solutions. SIEMENS also added hardware products from the Industrial Edge portfolio. SIMATIC ipc227e industrial PC adopts the latest processor technology, which can support both nanobox and panel PC. Thanks to its excellent performance and numerous interfaces, the SIMATIC ipc227e industrial PC is an ideal carrier for industrial edge and artificial intelligence (AI) applications.
In the field of driver technology, Siemens has extended the mindsphere application analyze mydrives to add an edge version. This will be the first edge application in the market for driver technology, which perfectly interprets the intelligent interconnection between edge and cloud computing. In the field of predictive service of drive system, Siemens has intelligently upgraded the service application based on mindsphere. In the latest version, the predictive service assistance application has integrated AI algorithms to support customers who need to enhance the availability of monitored assets and improve maintenance efficiency. SINAMICS g115d is a new generation of Siemens distributed drive system, specially developed for horizontal conveyor system. As a complete drive system, it is composed of motor, inverter and gearbox.
The continuous changes in product models and external markets require more flexible machines, while the application of processing and assembly systems also means a higher degree of automation. The integration of robot technology in production machine provides support for this. With the help of the SIMATIC robot library designed for SIMATIC robot integrator, Siemens has provided TIA boto with a new universal robot library. In the future, users can use the SIMATIC robot library to program most of the robots on the way to TIA without the restriction of manufacturers, and can also adopt the standard operation concept based on SIMATIC robot integrator and SIMATIC HMI. With TIA boto's standard environment, users can save up to 30% of their time in designing a new complete system, thus shortening the time to market.
Siemens demonstrated innovative cloud connect products that serve as the foundation for today's and future industrial Internet of things applications, providing continuous data access through all interfaces and standards. SIMATIC PCs Neo, a web-based process control system, supports convenient system access and provides customers with a multi-user collaborative work platform on the basis of secure network connection. Siemens also highlighted the advantages of the power over Ethernet (POE) portfolio, a key component of modern enterprise digitization. All new Poe switches are compliant with the latest IEEE 802.3bt standard in view of the growing demand for components that can be installed and operated quickly in the required locations without complex cabling. With the help of module type package (MTP), Siemens provides suitable solutions for factory operators who are committed to rapidly and flexibly expanding production or have the need to change production.
In the field of digital enterprise services, Siemens provides a series of new services. Digital factory optimization uses artificial intelligence technology to simulate and optimize the production and logistics environment. Virtual commissioning services (VCS) is a network-based virtual commissioning service which is designed, implemented and maintained by Siemens experts. In addition, the new Internet service connec
