- Cooperation draws on Siemens’ portfolio of IoT-enabled hardware, software and digital services – the open digital business platform Siemens Xcelerator
- New initiative builds on long-standing software partnership of both companies
Siemens, a leading supplier in the field of automation and industrial
software, cooperates with Nissan to build production lines for the new
all-electric crossover Nissan Ariya at the company’s plant in Tochigi, Japan. Both
companies build on their long-standing cooperation. Nissan had already been
using the Siemens Digital Industries software portfolio to optimize design and
production. End-to-end digital threads enable Nissan to connect a wide variety
of sources of information across product lifecycle management (PLM) platforms.
- Siemens represented in the Green Innovation Zone and the Digital Hub at the ACHEMA trade fair
- Focus on chemical recycling and hydrogen
- Siemens Xcelerator and the entire Siemens portfolio support sustainability management along the production chain
Sustainability is the leading theme of this year's world's flagship trade fair for the process industry, ACHEMA, in Frankfurt. In the Green Innovation Zone and the Digital Hub at the fair, Siemens will show how industrial companies can efficiently combine digitalization and sustainability. "As one of the main CO2 emitters, the process industry is under particular pressure to produce in a climate-friendly way," says Eckard Eberle, CEO Process Automation at Siemens. "Holistic and effective sustainability management can only work if industrial companies consistently focus on digitalization and automation." In more than 20 lectures and best-practice presentations, Siemens will illustrate how companies can use digitalization and automation and make their products, plants, and processes more sustainable.
- Siemens Xcelerator includes selected portfolio of IoT-enabled hardware, software, and digital offerings as well as a marketplace
- Offerings for the machine tool industry part of Siemens Xcelerator
- Software applications for cloud, edge, and own servers with numerous innovations for the machine tool
- First partner applications based on Industrial Edge for Machine Tools, the open ecosystem for IoT
Under the motto
"Accelerate digitalization for a sustainable tomorrow", Siemens will
be demonstrating at this year's AMB how the enormous potential for optimizing
machine tools can be utilized thanks to the continuous analysis of production
data. With the open digital business platform Siemens Xcelerator, IoT-enabled
hardware and software, the company demonstrates how the real world can be
connected to the digital world. Such a portfolio accelerates the digital
transformation and enables flexible and sustainable action both in the
construction of machines and in their application.
Under the motto
"Accelerate
digitalization for a sustainable tomorrow", Siemens will be presenting
solutions at AMB Stuttgart on how to accelerate digitalization in the machine
tool industry, optimize the sustainability of CNC manufacturing and improve the
user experience. Thanks to the continuous analysis of manufacturing data, there
is enormous optimization potential for machine tools.
You can
experience the Siemens solutions and experts live at the AMB booth (Hall C2 | 2B03)
in Stuttgart.
- Siemens supports Skeleton as technology partner in the expansion and extension of the production of supercapacitor cells
- Skeleton plans new supercapacitors factory in Markranstädt, Leipzig, start of production is expected in 2024
- Joint development of a fully automated production line for new factory
- Digitalization of the entire value chain
Skeleton Technologies and
Siemens have agreed on a far-reaching technology partnership for the
development, planning and implementation of a fully automated, digital manufacturing
technology for the production of supercapacitors in Germany. The production
line is to be used in a new Skeleton factory in Markranstädt, Leipzig and will
help to reduce production costs by around 90 percent within the five-year
project. The collaboration aims to achieve the digitization of Skeleton's
entire value chain – from supercapacitor cell design to production and services
– and expand to the production of next-generation supercapacitors. Siemens
supports this with its comprehensive Digital Enterprise portfolio as well as
domain know-how in the area of industrial battery cell production. Furthermore,
it is planned to further expand the business relations between the two
companies.
With the global drive toward climate-neutral aviation gaining pace and the rebirth of interest in supersonic travel, innovations in aircraft configurations require careful and diligent use of aerodynamic and structural design optimization. Siemens Digital Industries Software today announces that it entered into an agreement to acquire ZONA Technology, Inc., a renowned specialist in the field of aeroelastic simulation solutions. The addition of the ZONA Technology, Inc. technology to Siemens’ Xcelerator portfolio will assist customers in making their digital threads as comprehensive and as efficient as possible to help speed innovation, ensure on-time and on-budget delivery of more sustainable aerospace invention.
- New innovation hub for research at Siemens in Garching, Germany
- Joint research facility with Technical University of Munich in Garching’s “Isar Valley”
- Modern and open work environments in a digitally planned, sustainable building
Just nine months after construction began, a
topping-out ceremony is being celebrated for the new Siemens Technology Center
at the research campus in the university town of Garching, Germany, near
Munich. As a result, this new building – which was planned digitally and is
being built to meet stringent sustainability requirements – has thus now
reached an important milestone on the journey to Siemens’ future research activities in the
Munich area. With its modern work environments, this facility will serve as an
innovation hub that provides space for inspiration and new ideas. At this center,
more than 450 researchers from Siemens’ “Technology” unit will collaborate on
technologies of the future with around 150 employees and students from the
Technical University of Munich (TUM).
Whether for workpiece handling, retooling, postprocessing or parallel
machining, robots and machine tools are working ever more closely together.
Companies in almost all industrial sectors already benefit from robots today.
But integrating robots into automation and exploiting their full potential poses
many challenges. Under the motto "Seamless and fast integration of robot
kinematics into automation", Siemens will be presenting at this year's
automatica (Hall B6, Booth 302) how companies can overcome these
challenges and how the digital and real worlds can be connected through
robotics and automation solutions.
