Under the motto "Industrialize Additive Manufacturing" Siemens presented its comprehensive solution portfolio for consistent digitalization of additive manufacturing at the formnext 2018, the leading exhibition for additive manufacturing. Starting with the design and engineering software, via innovative simulation tools to complete machine and factory automation, Siemens demonstrated how the industrialization of additive manufacturing can be further accelerated. Furthermore Siemens introduced solutions around peripheral processes, such as automated support removal, surfaces finishing and part removal as well as post processing for intelligent de-powdering solutions. Additional, Siemens presented new business models, which have derived from digitalization in this industry.
Siemens has received an order from Israel
for the first time for the turnkey construction of two industrial combined
cycle power plants. The two natural gas-fired power plants, Alon Tavor and
Ramat Gabriel, are to be built in northern Israel. Alon Tavor will supply a
creamery with electricity and process steam, while Ramat Gabriel will supply a
fiber factory. The Israeli energy provider, RD Energy, is the customer for both
power plants. Commissioning of the plants is scheduled for mid-2018.
- Largest private cogeneration project to date for Siemens in Mexico
Siemens has received an order to supply an
H-class gas turbine, one SST-800 steam turbine and two associated generators as
well as four switchgear units for the Altamira combined cycle cogeneration
power plant in Mexico. The entire power plant will have an electrical capacity
of around 350 megawatts (MW) and will also provide process steam, making this
the largest private cogeneration project to date for Siemens in this country.
In total, Siemens has now received orders for sevenH-class gas turbines from Mexico, including this order. Siemens’ customer is
the Mexican company Avanzia Instalaciones. The end customer is Alpek S.A.B. de
C.V., a subsidiary of Grupo Alfa, S.A. de C.V. Commissioning of the overall
facility is scheduled for end of 2018.
Within a period of just a few weeks, Siemens
has received orders from customers in Great Britain and the United States for a
total of nine compact steam turbines. The turbines are to be manufactured at
Siemens' production site in Frankenthal, Germany. Three SST-040 turbines have
been ordered by the Dutch energy provider Kara Energy Systems B.V. for biomass
power plants in Great Britain, while the U.S.-based company Airclean Energy in
Seattle, Washington, has placed an order for six SST-110 compact steam turbines.
Siemens has received its first order from
China for the
delivery of four SGT-800 gas turbines and the
associated generators.
The turbines will be installed in the Shanxi Guoxin
Baode and Xiyang decentralized
energy projects in Central China. The two combined cycle power plants with heat
extraction will have an overall capacity of 308 megawatts (MW). The
customer is Shanxi Natural Gas Limited Company, a subsidiary of ShanxiProvincial
Guoxin Energy Development Group Co., Ltd.. Commercial
operation of the plants is scheduled for July 2017.
