- New Edge applications for workpiece and process quality, machine availability and process optimization
- Analyze MyWorkpiece /Vision and Optimize MyMachining /Magazine based on artificial intelligence
- Manage MySinumerik Edge for the central control and condition monitoring of Edge devices
Siemens has extended its Industrial Edge offerings for the machine-oriented Sinumerik Edge to include more new applications. With the new software, the company is helping machine tool users to improve workpiece and process quality, increase machine availability, and further optimize machine processes. With Edge Computing, large volumes of data can be processed locally on the machine tool. This also reduces storage and transmission costs for users, as large data volumes can be preprocessed and only the relevant data then transferred to a cloud or IT infrastructure.
- Facilities in Baiji will power Iraq’s biggest refinery and deliver
electricity to thousands of homes in liberated areas
- Siemens equipment includes E-class gas turbines, substations and
generators
- Project is start of Phase 2 of Siemens’ Roadmap for Iraq and will be
completed 28 months after financial closing by Iraq’s government
Siemens
and Orascom Construction signed an agreement with Iraq’s Ministry of
Electricity to rebuild Baiji 1 and Baiji 2 power plants in northern Iraq. The
plants will have a combined generation capacity of 1.6 gigawatts (GW) when
completed and are a major step in Siemens’ roadmap for rebuilding Iraq's power
sector that has already added more than 700 megawatts to Iraq’s grid.
- Reaching the next level of digital transformation involves cutting-edge technologies such as Edge and cloud computing as well as artificial intelligence
- These technologies can be used to analyze data more comprehensively and in more depth than was previously the case. The owner of this data retains control over it at all times.
- Targeted patent strategies help the midmarket sector protect its innovations in the area of Industry 4.0 and tap new sales opportunities.
Cutting-edge technologies and the protection of intellectual property are a vital lever for advancing competitiveness and for opening up new business opportunities for medium-sized companies in the process and manufacturing industries. This was the message given by Klaus Helmrich, Member of the Managing Board of Siemens AG and CEO Siemens Digital Industries, as he addressed the "Forum of German SME" ("Forum Deutscher Mittelstand") in Stuttgart, southern Germany. The Forum was attended by 500 representatives from numerous well-known German companies in mechanical and plant engineering in order to debate digital strategies and future technologies for small and medium-sized companies. "The midmarket sector has always been characterized by its innovative force. We now need to protect these innovations with new approaches to patenting software and applications, for example," Klaus Helmrich explained.
- 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.

- Digital service offering supports machine users and machine manufacturers with the creation of a digital twin and with virtual commissioning
- Sinumerik One on show at EMO with more than 20 pilot customers
With the latest CNC generation, Sinumerik One, Siemens is presenting the essential component for the digital transformation of machine tools at EMO 2019. As a "digital native", the controller features versatile software for the creation of corresponding digital twins. Sinumerik One is setting new benchmarks in terms of productivity with its new hardware platform. A wide range of innovative technology functions help to improve processing speed, contour accuracy and processing quality.
At this year's World Energy Congress (WEC) Siemens Gas and Power will give deep insights into how new energy trends are driving the future of energy and how the company is helping its customers navigate the demands of today’s industries and societies.
- Smart grid solution to support growing demand for residential electric vehicle charging infrastructure
- Digitalization of low-voltage network enables electromobility growth
- Locally monitored and controlled home charging stations to relieve network
- Decentralized intelligence prevents network overload
- Pilot project in Hamburg aims to develop scalable, technical solutions
Growth in electromobility, along with the required charging infrastructure, presents distribution networks with enormous challenges. To address this, Siemens and Stromnetz Hamburg GmbH have started collaborating on a three-year pilot project aimed at avoiding extensive expansion of the low-voltage networks and preventing overload situations in secondary distribution networks. Applying a concept for resilient information and communication technology to digitalize secondary distribution networks, the project's goal is to facilitate stable and reliable operation of the low-voltage networks to ensure secure power supply as demand for electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure grows.

- Siemens' Teamcenter software weaves a digital thread of data through an enterprise's portfolio of plants and related projects, from capital project delivery into operations, to drive new efficiencies in design, construction, and operations as well as decrease project delivery costs and timeframes
- Bentley Systems Inc., whose iTwin™ cloud services enable project digital twins and asset performance digital twins for infrastructure engineering, provides comprehensive and scalable data exchange and change synchronization
- Solution benefits the discrete and process industries, including Energy, Consumer Goods, Automotive and Transportation industries
Siemens Digital Industries Software and Bentley Systems announce today the immediate availability of a new Capital Asset Lifecycle Management (CALM) solution for Teamcenter® software. This new solution, developed collaboratively by both companies, was created to address the challenges typically faced across an enterprise's greenfield and brownfield capital projects, including rampant delays and cost overruns, which can be caused by lack of system interoperability and a failure to appropriately leverage digitalization. These challenges can adversely affect the efficiency of the operational plant or system. To address these challenges and realize greater efficiency throughout the lifecycle of capital assets, Teamcenter CALM solutions help companies make the transition to digitalization for the planning, design, procurement, construction, and operation of capital assets. The Teamcenter CALM solution can consolidate asset data and weave a digital thread from project delivery into operations, enabling the creation of a closed-loop digital twin— the virtual representation of a physical asset—to visualize and simulate project designs, construction execution, and operational performance.
