Industrial AI and sustainability at scale: Siemens redefines industrial innovation at Hannover Messe
“Together with our
partners, we will be showcasing how innovations like AI, digital twins and
software defined automation can help customers to address multiple challenges.
From increasing competitiveness, reducing costs, overcoming labor shortages or
increasing sustainability, Siemens has the technologies that industries need
right now,” said Roland Busch, President and CEO of Siemens AG.
Siemens press conference and live stage program
At Hannover Messe,
Siemens will be demonstrating how customers can benefit from the Siemens
Xcelerator digital business platform. The focus will be on applications such as
AI-enabled machine vision and Siemens Industrial Copilot with Microsoft and Schaeffler.
The Siemens Xcelerator ecosystem is constantly evolving: the number of partners
and sellers nearly doubled in the last year alone.
At a press
conference on Monday, April 22,
2024, from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. CEST, Siemens will present the latest
trends and developments. Journalists can also join the press conference via
livestream by registering at: https://siemenspkhannover24.events.dc.siemens.com/
Further activities
at the tradeshow will be accompanied by a live stage program featuring members
of the Siemens AG Managing Board along with experts, partners and
customers.
Roland Busch, President and CEO of Siemens AG, and
Rev Lebaredian, Vice President of Omniverse and Simulation Technology at
NVIDIA, will discuss the AI-powered industrial metaverse. They will
explore the potential of immersive experiences for customers in all industries
and showcase how Siemens’ physics-based digital twins powered by NVIDIA Omniverse
and AI are driving productivity.
The session “Supercharging
transformation: how AI-powered digital twins enable the industrial metaverse”
will take place at the Siemens booth on Monday, April 22, at 12
noon CEST. Participating journalists will be able to ask
questions afterwards. The talk and Q&A will also be livestreamed: https://www.linkedin.com/events/siemens-nvidia-howai-digitaltwi7182007244371165186/theater/
Chancellor Scholz to experience new era of human-machine interaction with Siemens Industrial Copilot
German Chancellor Olaf Scholz plans to visit the tradeshow’s biggest
booth to experience the transformative power of generative AI firsthand. Klaus
Rosenfeld, CEO of the Schaeffler Group, will also be present during the
Chancellor’s visit because Siemens and Schaeffler are now working together even
more closely on digital transformation and generative AI. To this end, both companies
will sign a memorandum of understanding to expand their joint work on Siemens
Industrial Copilot.
In a world premiere at the SPS tradeshow last fall, Siemens and
Schaeffler unveiled an integrated generative AI-powered assistant in a
production machine: Siemens Industrial Copilot helps automation engineers speed
up the generation of code for programmable logic controllers (PLCs). PLCs are
the devices that control most machines throughout the world’s factories.
Engineering teams can significantly reduce time, effort and the probability of
errors by generating code through natural language inputs.
“Our AI solutions, such as the Siemens Industrial Copilot, show our
commitment to combining the real and the digital worlds,” said Cedrik Neike,
member of the Managing Board of Siemens AG and CEO of Siemens Digital
Industries. “Last year, we presented our vision of putting AI at your
fingertips and highlighted the huge opportunities these capabilities will
bring. Now, we’re turning this vision into reality by taking AI from concept to
scale. And this new reality goes beyond engineering and operations. It’s a
game-changing transformation that is also tackling challenges like labor
shortage and climate change.”
Decarbonizing industrial operations and buildings
As part of the
Siemens Xcelerator portfolio, Siemens is presenting Electrification X for the
first time. Built on highly scalable cloud services, Electrification X is
designed to manage, optimize and automate the challenged electrification
infrastructure of commercial, industrial and utility customers. The aim is to
improve efficiency and performance while reducing costs and CO2
emissions.
“The digitalization of buildings, electrification infrastructure and
power grids is key for creating a smarter, more efficient and decarbonized
industrial sector,” said Matthias Rebellius, member of the Managing Board of
Siemens AG and CEO of Smart Infrastructure. “At the industrial tradeshow in Hannover,
we’re showcasing our latest products driving sustainable transformation, such
as the highly innovative Sentron electronic circuit protection device and SF6-free
switchgear. We’re also announcing new partners in our ecosystem. Beyond that, we’re
proudly introducing Electrification X, which is a highly scalable, internet-of-things
software-as-a-service offering to transform electrification infrastructure.”
Furthermore, Siemens
is presenting new apps as part of the Building X digital building platform. They
include the Sustainability Manager app, which can be used to achieve greater
transparency in the operation of manufacturing and office spaces. In addition,
the Comfort AI app enables optimized energy consumption through AI-based
control of the entire heating, ventilation and air conditioning system within a
building.
Siemens is also adding products
for infrastructure and industrial applications to its Siemens EcoTech
portfolio. Siemens EcoTech gives customers a comprehensive insight into product
performance across selected environmental criteria and is setting a new
standard for transparency in the industrial sector. The label represents the
next milestone in the company’s long-standing commitment to minimizing the
environmental footprint of its own operations and products and to supporting
the digital and sustainability transformation of its customers.
