From September 4 to 7, Siemens was at SMM under the banner "Welcome to the Digitalization at Marine – implement now," with an exciting presentation showcasing the entry of digitalization into its marine portfolio. At Booth 318 in Hall B6, Siemens exhibited its broad spectrum of drive technology, automation and digitalization services and solutions for shipbuilding and marine operations. Highlights of this year's trade fair presentation included a virtual reality representation of the Siship as well as the smart web-based data application Siship EcoMAIN. Siemens also featured integrated solutions for the (partial) electrification of ships using uniform topology with the latest members of its Siship BlueDrive Family. As well as moving over functional features familiar from Siship EcoProp under the name Siship BlueDrive Eco, Siemens also offered visitors a glimpse into its own battery production and presented a partner in the field of fuel cell-based power supplies for the commercial sector.
Siemens exhibited at the automatica 2018 with an array of integrated and user-oriented Digital Enterprise solutions designed to sharpen the competitive edge of both end users and machine builders. Exhibiting under the banner "Digital Enterprise – Implement now!", Siemens focused on ways in which industrial enterprises of all sizes can benefit from the digital transformation – along the entire value chain from product design and production planning through the engineering process to new services.
World Forum and Leading Show for the Process IndustriesUnder the motto "Accelerate the digital transformation – from integrated engineering to integrated operations." we presented at the Achema 2018 trade show specific applications for how to use the potential of digitalization to enhance efficiency, flexibility, and quality – and to shorten time to market. Production can be significantly optimized and made more flexible by integrating all components in instrumentation and control and management systems and by intelligently using all of the process data generated in a common data model – the digital twin of the overall plant. Maintenance effort and costs can also be slashed dramatically by using cloud-based applications and data-based services.
As part of formnext 2017, the leading exhibition for additive manufacturing, Siemens presented its comprehensive solution portfolio for consistent digitalization of additive manufacturing, starting with the design and engineering software, via innovative simulation tools to complete machine and factory automation. In addition to this, Siemens demonstrated how the industrialization of additive manufacturing can be further accelerated by using innovative added value services.
The EMO Hannover is the world's premier trade fair for the metalworking sector. Some 2,000 exhibitors come to the EMO Hannover to present products and services from across every segment of metalworking technology, from machine tools, precision tooling, and automation components to systems with a customer-oriented focus. A selection of accompanying events and special shows form the framework to the EMO Hannover and supplement the exhibition spectrum.
"Lead the TRANSITion" was the motto of this year's UITP International Mass Transit Trade Show in Montreal. At the bi-annual Global Public Transport Summit, the Siemens Mobility Division was again be represented this year with intelligent mobility solutions. From May 15 to 17, 2017, at booth (SK100) on Level 02 of the Conference Center, Siemens was showcasing integrated and sustainable transport solutions which help to get the best out of existing infrastructures – using not only state-of-the-art hardware but also intelligent management systems. This is the only way to deliver future-proof mobility services in the face of rising energy costs, limited space and growing demands. Digitalization of proven transport solutions plays a key role in achieving this goal, as it allows availability and passenger comfort to be improved and throughput to be maximized.
On the first day of the Hannover Messe, April 24, Klaus Helmrich welcomed you to the annual Siemens Press Conference. As member of the Managing Board of Siemens AG, Klaus Helmrich is responsible for the Digital Factory as well as Process Industries and Drives Divisions. The Press Conference took place at 6:30 PM in the Trade Fair's Convention Center, Room 1 A/B. Mr Helmrich talked about current digitalization trends in the manufacturing and process industries under the heading "Discover the value of the Digital Enterprise".
Our world is becoming increasingly digitalized – influencing everything from our communication with one another to the way we develop, produce and consume goods and services. The digitalization megatrend has not bypassed the rail sector. Siemens has kept pace here, too, and was exhibiting at the Innotrans 2016 with a focus on the digital transformation of rail transport.
