As a virtual event, the Siemens Machine
Tool Days provide insights into digital solutions for the machine tool
industry. Keynotes, #HowTo expert panels and practical examples will deal with
digital possibilities for increasing productivity in manufacturing under the
motto "Digitalization in Machine Tool Manufacturing - Thinking further!
Using the Digital Enterprise portfolio as an example, Siemens will show how the
integration of automation and digitization with future technologies such as
edge and cloud computing and artificial intelligence can be used effectively in
every phase of the value-added chain: from building a digital twin of the
product to production and machine performance to digital services.
> Register here > Explore our agenda
Today, the need for industrial digital solutions is more pressing and more important than ever before. During this event, we want to show how you can benefit from our digital solutions for the machine tool industry - from the Digital Twins of product, production and performance to every aspect of the value chain, including digital services.
- Sinumerik One Dynamics - three technology packages to increase the efficiency of CNC users when programming in the shopfloor and executing CAM-generated CNC programs
- Top Surface and Top Speed Plus for excellent motion control and perfect workpiece surfaces
With the software version NCU-SW 6.14, Siemens is launching three powerful technology packages exclusively for the CNC Sinumerik One. The Sinumerik One Dynamics packages are available in three different packages: One Dynamics Operate, One Dynamics 3-axis milling and One Dynamics 5-axis milling. The software functions contained in the technology packages support users from machine-oriented programming in the jobshop to high-performance machining of CAD-CAM-programmed workpieces with high surface quality.
- Improvement of machine tool availability through predictive maintenance with Analyze MyMachine /Condition
- Analyze MyMachine /Condition for Sinumerik Edge creates a mechanical fingerprint of the machine tool
- Condition evaluation, analysis and comparison of all connected machines using the Mindsphere application
Siemens is extending its edge application Analyze MyMachine /Condition with a corresponding Mindsphere application and thus demonstrating how edge computing and cloud computing can be intelligently combined. The Sinumerik Edge Application Analyze MyMachine /Condition, which the company presented last year at the EMO, uses high-frequency CNC data to create the mechanical fingerprint of a machine tool. In the application, users can capture and evaluate various parameters such as stiffness, friction, and backlash in the individual axes with the help of flexibly configurable measurement series. The measurement results can then be visualized and compared with reference data.
- High-frequency radar ensures
reliable readings in challenging environments
- Optional
HMI delivers easy commissioning and diagnostic
support
- Wide
range of liquids and solids applications in practically all market segments
including energy, mining, aggregates and water
Siemens presents two new additions
to the Sitrans LR100 series of 80 GHz radar transmitters. These high-frequency,
compact transmitters deliver robust, reliable measurements even in the most
challenging environments. Both deliver fast and easy setup. Sitrans LR140
features 4-20 mA simplicity and is configured via Bluetooth wireless technology
and the Sitrans mobile IQ App.
- Calibrant Energy to bundle latest distributed energy technologies and financing expertise of global leaders Macquarie and Siemens
- The joint venture will create Energy-as-a-Service solutions from a full range of energy technologies for corporate and municipal clients
Macquarie’s Green Investment Group (GIG), Siemens Smart Infrastructure and Siemens Financial Services (SFS) today announced the formation of Calibrant Energy (Calibrant), a joint venture that offers comprehensive onsite Energy-as-a-Service (EaaS) solutions at no up-front cost for its customers, which include corporate and industrial clients, as well as municipalities, universities, schools and hospitals.
- New standard library for shorter winding times at a higher quality
- Can be used for linear winding procedures of rectangular coils
- Engineering and commissioning times of winding machines are reduced
For the faster production of e-motors, Siemens has developed a new application which optimally controls wire tension for linear winding and minimizes fluctuations in force. The Wire Brake software application for automated winding of rectangular coil former controls the tension of the copper wire. In comparison to passive systems, this enables higher winding speeds and a higher winding quality to be achieved. The functionality can be integrated directly into the machine project using the standard library "Simotion Wire Brake" which shortens engineering and commissioning costs. It contains algorithms which include the rectangular geometry of the coil former as well as the "TensionControl" components to control the wire tension brake axis and "CamGeneration" to calculate cams using reference values.
- New services enabled by the Mendix low-code platform enable data-driven decision making in factories and across enterprise data sources
Siemens Digital Industries Software is leveraging the Mendix™ low-code application development platform to help customers across industries build contextual and personalized solutions and help enable data-driven decision-making processes. With the general availability of Mendix Data Hub and new Mendix for Industrial Edge services, Siemens can help customers achieve an end-to-end view of their plants, factories, and systems and provide domain experts with actionable insights through solutions that have been developed with the right data from across the organization. The Mendix platform extends the Xcelerator™ portfolio with the ability to build multi experience apps and share data from any location, on any device, on any cloud or platform, to more quickly realize the benefits of digital transformation.
Every plant or asset is documented in data. All this data and information is scattered across various platforms and various formats. It is not contextualized nor is it easily accessible. It is simply not data you can rely on. That is where PlantSight comes in. PlantSight consolidates the assets of a plant, by bringing together different types of data (1D, 2D, or 3D) from different sources into a single source of truth.
- Siemens expands strategic partnership with eQ Technologic
- eQube® Data as a Service (DaaS) to deliver enhanced industrial digital threads through purpose-built integration of IT, OT and ET solutions
- eQube® DaaS extends Mendix Data Hub to create seamless, self-service access to data resources
Siemens Digital Industries Software can now deliver
more seamless integration and data and
process orchestration across the Xcelerator™ portfolio through an expanded strategic
partnership with eQ Technologic (eQ). Building on the long relationship between Siemens and
eQ, Siemens’ customers can now access the eQube® Data as a Service platform to create
digital threads connecting systems including Product Lifecycle Management
(PLM), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Application Lifecycle Management
(ALM), Internet of Things (IoT), and other Information Technology (IT),
Engineering Technology (ET) and Operational Technology (OT) solutions. eQube extends the Mendix™ Data Hub, a key component of the
expanded Mendix low-code platform, and can help enable industrial data and
system integrations with a rich set of over 60 smart connectors developed from domain-specific
knowledge drawn from over 20 years of experience.
- Siemens and J&K Technology support digital validation process
- New CVal software solution for digital process and plant validation in COMOS for the pharmaceutical industry
- Efficient data handling across all disciplines - using a central database and object orientation
Siemens and J&K Technology, part of the J&K Group, announce the development of the new CVal software solution for COMOS. J&K Technology, a specialist in cGxP Compliance Services, has developed the CVal solution. CVal is a digital process and plant validation software for use in the pharmaceutical industry, based on the Siemens COMOS Plant Engineering software solution. This involves a wide range of different modules based on the COMOS platform and the COMOS Data Document Management System (DDMS). As a result, this digital application consistently creates greater data integrity, quality, coherence, and topicality.
