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."
"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.
