Siemens at the Achema 2018
Frankfurt am Main, 11 June to 15 June 2018
Save the date2018-06-11T00:00:00.0002018-06-15T00:00:00Europe/Parisuse-titleSiemens at the Achema 2018World Forum and Leading Show for the Process IndustriesFrankfurt am Main

Under the motto "Accelerate the digital transformation – from integrated engineering to integrated operations." we presented at the Achema 2018 trade show specific applications for how to use the potential of digitalization to enhance efficiency, flexibility, and quality – and to shorten time to market. Production can be significantly optimized and made more flexible by integrating all components in instrumentation and control and management systems and by intelligently using all of the process data generated in a common data model – the digital twin of the overall plant. Maintenance effort and costs can also be slashed dramatically by using cloud-based applications and data-based services.

"It's only by recognizing and implementing opportunities quickly that customers can make optimum use of the digital transformation, making sure that they are equipped and future-proofed to cope with the demands of their specific markets. Our job is to support our customers here, not only by supplying our "digital expertise", but also with comprehensive industry-related knowledge and specific solutions for each field of industry, and this applies to both new and legacy plants," says Eckard Eberle, CEO of the Process Automation Business Unit (PD PA) and Director in charge of the Siemens booth at the Achema.
At the Achema 2018, Siemens is exhibiting under the banner "Accelerate the digital transformation – from integrated engineering to integrated operations". Featured over a total area of just under 1,300 square meters will be the Digital Enterprise solutions portfolio, which allows companies of the process industry to leverage the benefits of Industrie 4.0 already today.

Jürgen Brandes, CEO of the Process Industries and Drives Division: "We are the first provider ever to offer an end-to-end data model along the entire plant life cycle, from integrated engineering and integrated operations through to data-based services. This model, the digital twin, enables users to achieve higher flexibility, a shorter time to market, greater efficiency and improved quality during running operation. With this achievement, we've already put the technical conditions in place to allow the implementation of Industrie 4.0."
