September 16 2019, the day EMO opened its doors in Hanover to welcome trade visitors from all over the world. EMO is regarded as the world's leading trade fair for metal processing with exhibitors ranging from metal processing technology, machine tools, precision tools and automation components to customer-oriented systems.This year, Siemens presented its customers exciting innovations and new developments in technology and digitalization of machine tools under the banner of "Digitalization in Machine Tool Manufacturing - Thinking Further!". Particular highlights were the new CNC generation – Sinumerik One – and the machine-oriented platform Sinumerik Edge.In the run-up to this event, Siemens invited journalists to the international Siemens Press Conference in Erlangen.
- Siemens industrializes additive manufacturing with polymers with EOS and DyeMansion as partners
- Siemens and EOS support Hexr in the mass customization of additively manufactured bicycle helmets
- Digital Enterprise portfolio offers integrated software and automation solutions for the industrialization of additive manufacturing
- Additive Manufacturing Network – an online order-to-delivery collaboration platform for the industrial additive manufacturing community, helps streamline the AM production process
Siemens' Digital Enterprise portfolio consists of software and automation solutions that optimize process steps along the entire value chain of additive manufacturing. This holistic approach is unique in the field of the industrialization of additive manufacturing. "The automated chain of coordinated production steps from all suppliers, from design and printing to post-processing, as well as end-to-end IT integration, is crucial for high productivity and maximum flexibility. This applies to series parts as well as to a highly flexible lot-size-1 production for individualized products or spare parts," explains Dr. Karsten Heuser, Vice President Additive Manufacturing at Siemens Digital Industries.

Bicycle helmets made to measure and in an
affordable framework for everyone - what was unthinkable a few years ago is now
becoming reality thanks to digitalization and additive manufacturing. The head
is simply scanned with a smartphone app and the process for the custom-made
helmet is initiated. Siemens, together with EOS, has supported this vision of
the bicycle helmet manufacturer Hexr. Siemens' Digital Enterprise portfolio
consists of software and automation solutions that optimize process steps along
the entire value chain of additive manufacturing. This holistic approach is
unique in the field of the industrialization of additive manufacturing. With
the help of end-to-end solutions, Siemens has created the digital twin of an
industrialized additive manufacturing factory, helping to optimize the design
and streamline the production processes for customized bicycle helmets even
before production begins. By combining simulation, design optimization and a
high degree of automation in production, the costs per part could be predicted
and significantly reduced, allowing Hexr to scale the scan-to-print application
to mass production.
- Successful collaboration to be showcased at Formnext 2019

- Sinumerik Run MyRobot /Direct Control for precise printing with Comau robot and CEAD extruder
CEAD, technology supplier of 3D printing equipment on the frontier of large scale polymer, glass and carbon fibers 3D printing, and Siemens intensify their collaboration and showcase their latest development the AM Flexbot at the upcoming Formnext 2019, a leading trade fair for Additive Manufacturing, on the Siemens booth D81, Hall 12.1.
On the first day of the Hannover Messe, April 1, 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 Industries Operating Company. The Press Conference took place at 6:30 PM in the Trade Fair's Convention Center, Room 1 A/B.Mr. Helmrich talked about the latest developments of digitalization and the next step towards the digital transformation in the manufacturing and process industries under the theme "Digital Enterprise – Thinking industry further!".
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.
