With six lines and a total route length of 176 kilometers, Riyadh is constructing one of the world’s largest metro projects. Riyadh currently has a population of 6.5 million people which is set to increase to 8.3 million by 2030 due to its rapid urban growth. As part of a consortium with the US company Bechtel and the local construction firms Almabani and Consolidated Contractors Company, Siemens Mobility is responsible for building lines 1 (Blue Line) and 2 (Red Line). Siemens Mobility, as Engineering and Maintenance partner, is supplying the rolling stock for driverless operation. Moreover, the scope includes project management, signaling, power supply, communication systems, depot and workshop equip¬ment, platform screen doors, testing and commissioning and system integration in a turnkey approach.
- Unlocking digital model data along the product lifecycle for drive systems
- Accessing CAD data in web, Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality
- Combining IIoT with visual computing for design collaboration and troubleshooting
Drive systems are core assets in industrial processes. Key aspects of the structural design and functionality are reflected in digital twins. Visualizing digital model data along the product lifecycle of a drive system is key in operational tasks from collaboration in design to remote service or troubleshooting. Moreover, the introduction of augmented reality and virtual reality in the industrial domain yields the potential to become a productivity driver for the human interaction with data.
- 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
