- Digital Transformation Consulting CNC for the development of an individual digitalization strategy
- Connection between the production network and higher-level networks even for third-party controllers through Brownfield Connectivity Services
At EMO 2019 in Hanover, Siemens is presenting the latest services for the digitalization of machine tools. With its "Digital Transformation Awareness & Consulting CNC", Siemens offers a consulting service for the development of an individual digitalization strategy. In addition to workshops for the identification of action areas and development of the digitalization strategy, target group-specific training sessions provide more in-depth knowledge and promote wider acceptance of the digital transformation. With Brownfield Connectivity Services, Siemens is also offering additional services: using a gateway, users can connect both Sinumerik CNCs and controllers and automation solutions from third-party providers to higher-level networks. Digital Transformation Awareness & Consulting CNC and Brownfield Connectivity Services are part of Digital Motion Control Services, which enable Siemens to support its customers on the path toward digitalization.
- Efficient and future-proof maintenance with Predictive Services for Drive Systems
- New Mindsphere Predictive Service Assistance app provides digital support for the service portfolio, while also offering transparency and streamlined ordering processes
- Predictive Services for Drive Systems for increased productivity and reduced downtimes for machines and plants
With Predictive Services for Drive Systems, Siemens presents a standardized extension to the local service agreement at this year’s SPS. This is based on the new Mindsphere Predictive Service Assistance app. It makes maintenance more efficient for Sinamics drive systems and/or Simotics motors in the low voltage range.
- TÜV Süd certified process for system integration and solution project processing in conformity with IEC 62443-2-4 and -3-3
- Security documentation in conformity with IEC 62443
- Implementation of certified solutions with Simatic PCS 7
- Standardized processes reduce outlay for customers
Siemens is the world's first company to gain TÜV SÜD certification for the secure system integration of process automation and drive solutions in compliance with the international IEC 62443-2-4 standards. The integration projects, verified on the basis of two standard solutions in the oil & gas processing industry and in a waste incineration plant, have been certified in conformity with IEC 62443-2-4 and -3-3 and were implemented using the Simatic PCS 7 process control system. The projects involved process automation, drive solutions and comprehensive security measures and functions designed to deliver secure plant operation. The certification has a whole range of advantages to offer for customers: plant operators benefit from the precise definition of requirements, the implementation of standardized automation solutions and processes, and from the availability of documentation in conformance with standards. This documentation provides a vital foundation for verifying compliance with the technical requirements of the IT Security Act and other cyber security standards, for the sustainable improvement of IT and OT system security, and for guaranteeing the security of general supplies. The system solutions are used in sectors involving a critical infrastructure, such as waste management and the oil and gas industry.
- Siemens Mobility will manage contract from the Singapore MindSphere Application Center
- Rail Enterprise Asset Management System to enhance availability
Siemens Mobility and consortium partner ST Engineering Electronics Limited have been awarded an 18.8 million Singapore dollars contract by the Singapore Land Transport Authority (LTA) to develop and implement a Rail Enterprise Asset Management System (REAMS). This digital program will be managed from the MindSphere Application Center in Singapore, one of Siemens' digitalization hubs. The facility was the first to integrate multi-disciplinary digitalization specialists from different Siemens businesses.
Utmost reliability and maximum availability are critically important for ensuring the cost-efficient operation of rail vehicles and the infrastructure they use. After all, malfunctions and downtimes cost money, cause delays and frequently also lead to compensation claims from passengers, local transport purchasers and freight customers. Long before faults actually occur, their potential sources should be identified. To provide this information, Siemens is the first company in the rail industry to operate a special data analytics center, located in Munich, Germany.
- Digitalization check: transparency of the digitalization capability of the machine park
- Virtual commissioning for OEM: faster commissioning and shorter time-to-market for machines
