- The project will enhance the University’s research capabilities to develop and use AI and robotics to inspect and maintain solar arrays
- The array is expected to be fully operational by July and will enable the University of York’s Institute for Safe Autonomy to become energy self-sufficient.
The University
of York has appointed Siemens to design and deliver a solar array located at
the University’s new Institute for Safe Autonomy (ISA) as part of a £1.5
million research project. Funded through the UK Research Partnership
Investment Fund (UKRPIF), the project will enhance the Institute’s research
capabilities to develop and use AI and robotic systems to inspect and maintain
solar arrays.
- Pilot project with Bayer at the Dormagen site
- Reliable product identification with ID link and quick access to digital product information
- Automatic provisioning through an Information Exchange Platform
- Siemens presents Digital Data Chain at Hannover Messe
Making product data for plant components
available digitally and at all times – that is the basic idea of the so-called
Digital Data Chain (DDC). Siemens is a pioneer in mapping the entire digital
data chain as the company has now supplied Bayer's Crop Science Division with
several SITRANS P320 pressure transmitters with standardized ID links for
unique object identification. In this way, the associated instance-specific,
digital documentation according to VDI standard 2770 could be transferred
directly to the ERP system used by Bayer. "With the digital data chain,
plant operators save a lot of time and money," says Axel Lorenz, CEO
Process Automation at Siemens. "Currently, plant maintenance personnel
spend most of their working time searching for relevant information. In the
future, components at the field level can be identified quickly and reliably
via mobile devices. At the same time, all information about the component is
immediately available digitally – for example for operation or
maintenance."

Siemens and
MIT Technology Review have embarked on collaborative research to explore the development
and opportunities of the rapidly developing Industrial Metaverse. The result of
this collaboration is a comprehensive report about the potential of The
Emergent Industrial Metaverse, which compiles the most recent research in
the field and includes interviews with leading technologists, industry
analysts, business leaders, and researchers. It is available free of charge as
of March 29 (link: https://sie.ag/MITIMV).
MIT Technology Review together with Michael Grieves, Executive Director of the
Digital Twin Institute, and Peter Körte, Chief Technology Officer and Chief Strategy
Officer of Siemens will bring these scenarios to the virtual stage on March 30
during a live-streamed webcast (link: https://www.linkedin.com/events/7044023667751571456).

- Sinamics G220 are the first Sinamics drives to join the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio
- Integrated Clean Power technology reduces harmonics by up to 97 percent
- Digital twin in Startdrive (TIA) enables testing and optimization of behavior before hardware is available
- IIoT module for easy integration into edge and cloud applications
With Sinamics G220,
Siemens is launching a new high-performance frequency converter to join the
Sinamics family in the run-up to Hannover Messe 2023. The innovative frequency
converters are equipped with so-called clean power technology. This reduces
harmonics by up to 97 percent without the need for line harmonic chokes or DC
link chokes.
- Trade show motto: "Intelligent intralogistics - experience the flow"
