Siemens introduces with Analyze MyDrives Edge its first edge application for drives
High-frequency data exchange between Sinamics drives and the Industrial Edge platform
Drive System Framework for connectivity, management, and configuration of the Digital Twin
Paving the way for new business models
As part of
the Digital Enterprise SPS Dialog, Siemens is launching Analyze MyDrives Edge,
its first edge application for drives. The company is thus demonstrating in
concrete terms how edge computing can make Sinamics drive systems even more
intelligent and what benefits users and machine builders can derive from it.
Analyze MyDrives Edge is being launched with basic functionalities similar to
the proven Mindsphere application Analyze MyDrives but will be enhanced with
intelligent features based on high-frequency data exchange. The Edge
application thus allows users of machines and industry applications to perform
complex analyses of data that is already collected in the drive. Machine
learning and AI algorithms on which the edge application is based identify
patterns and detect anomalies and their causes, thus providing timely
indications of any pending machine maintenance. This minimizes downtimes and
reduces the consumption of resources.

With the
Drive System Framework, Siemens offers the broad framework that allows users to
connect their Sinamics drive systems to the Industrial Edge platform. In
addition to pure connectivity, the Drive System Framework also allows the
management of the drive systems connected to the Edge platform. For example,
machine builders and users can change parameters or perform necessary firmware
updates. In addition to the connectivity and management, it should also be
possible in future to configure the simulation model, i.e. the digital twin of
the drive system in the machine. By connecting Sinamics frequency converters to
the Industrial Edge platform, Siemens is also helping to pave the way for new business
models. With intelligent drive technology, machine builders, for example, can
provide user-specific application solutions and digital services or can
guarantee the availability of a machine by contract.
