- Systems for charging at the depot and on-route
- Charging via on-board pantograph and contact hood with 100 and 450 kilowatts
- Integrated medium-voltage connection for space-saving installation
Siemens Smart Infrastructure will provide the charging infrastructure for 21 fully electric low-floor buses in Leipzig. VDL Bus & Coach received the associated contract from the Leipziger Verkehrsbetriebe (LVB) GmbH, the public transport operator in Leipzig. The charging systems from Siemens will supply electrical energy to VDL buses on lines 74, 76 and 89 as well as at the Lindenau bus depot and are scheduled to go into operation in 2021. The electrification of local public transport is a major lever for sustainable urban planning. With its Mobility Strategy 2030, also the City of Leipzig aims to develop environmentally-friendly transport systems.
- NX offers unconstrained concept design sketching within the 3D environment to help increase productivity
- NX software, part of Siemens’ Xcelerator portfolio, is a leading solution for building the most comprehensive digital twin
Siemens Digital Industries Software is announcing a new solution for capturing
concepts in 2D. The new NX™ Sketch software tool revolutionizes sketching
in CAD, which is an essential part of the design process. By changing the
underlying technology, users are now able to sketch without pre-defining
parameters, design intent and relationships. Using Artificial Intelligence (AI) to infer relationships on the fly, users can move away
from a paper hand sketch and truly create concept designs within NX™ software. This technology offers
significant flexibility in concept design sketching, and makes it easy to work
with imported data, allowing rapid design iteration on legacy data, and to work
with tens of thousands of curves within a single sketch. With these latest
enhancements to NX, Siemens’ Xcelerator portfolio continues to bring together great technology, even within the core
of modelling techniques, helping remove the traditional barriers users have
experienced to dramatically improve productivity.

- Using
proven software and hardware, Siemens has developed a unique workplace
distancing solution that helps manufacturers to simulate and manage employee
exposure risks while enabling productivity throughout their facilities
- Combination
of Siemens’ SIMATIC Real Time Locating Systems and Xcelerator portfolio help
enable customers to manufacture with confidence and future-proof their
