- Berlin as a pioneer: World’s first installation
of an obstacle detection system on an S-Bahn in daily operation
- Installation and practical testing of an
innovative obstacle detection system in the latest 484 series S-Bahn train
conducted by Siemens Mobility with
S-Bahn Berlin and the Digital Rail Germany (DSD) initiative
- Goal: Develop assistance system for accident
prevention and driverless operation at low speeds
Automated operation is a key function for expanding
rail capacity and strengthening the performance of railways. Working together
with S-Bahn Berlin, Siemens Mobility has installed and will be testing an
obstacle detection system – a key technology component for enabling fully
automated driving – for the first time during regular daily operation.
- Sinumerik Ctrl-E in V6.22 with new functions for evaluating and reducing energy consumption
- Flexible HMI portfolio for multifunctional machine tools
- Perfect compatibility in use and programming for easy integration into the existing machine fleet
At this year's EMO, Siemens is expanding its range of products and services with the "Digital Native" CNC Sinumerik One. The new CNC generation from Siemens, which was launched on the market in 2019, comes with numerous innovations in software and hardware. With the new Sinumerik software version V6.22, there are new technology functions for the Sinumerik One that increase transparency in the machine, simplify operation, reduce machine wear, and increase performance. This leads to the optimal use of available resources, for example by reducing scrap and repairs. It also helps to increase machine productivity by minimizing idle and production times, for example.

- Production processes to become more efficient and highly adaptive
- Includes launch of first fully virtual controller
Siemens introduces
Industrial Operations X, an open and interoperable portfolio for automating and
operating industrial production. The new portfolio is part of Siemens Xcelerator,
the open digital business platform comprising a portfolio of software and
connected hardware, an ecosystem of partners, and a marketplace.
- Higher engineering efficiency thanks to more functionalities for team collaboration
- IT/OT integration thanks to extension with the IT-oriented approach of Simatic Automation Xpansion (Simatic AX)
- Advanced engineering of kinematics (5D/6D)
- Maximum availability in through R1 redundancy
At the SPS trade fair
in Nuremberg from November 8 to 10, Siemens will present Version 18 of its
engineering framework TIA Portal (Totally Integration Automation Portal). If
industrial companies are to shorten their time-to-market, counteract the lack
of skilled workers, and remain competitive, they need efficient automation
engineering that can be quickly modified to meet new requirements. That’s why
the new version of the TIA Portal once again boosts engineering efficiency and
offers optimized functionalities for multi-user engineering. This means that
users can now work in teams and in parallel on projects and build and manage
shared libraries. Access rights can be assigned either individually or
group-specifically, which makes collaboration more flexible.
- Industry’s largest and oldest rail infrastructure site develops and produces signaling and rail automation technology for the world
- Prominent guests at today’s ceremony include Volker Wissing, Federal Minister for Digital Affairs and Transport, Olaf Lies, Lower Saxony’s Minister for Economic Affairs, Transport, Housing and Digitalization, and Roland Busch, CEO of Siemens AG
The
Braunschweig site of Siemens Mobility, the world’s largest and oldest
development and production site for signaling and rail automation technologies,
is celebrating its 150th anniversary today. Guests attending the event include Volker
Wissing, the Federal Minister for Digital Affairs and Transport, Olaf Lies, the
Lower Saxony Minister for Economic Affairs, Transport, Housing and
Digitalization, and Roland Busch, CEO of Siemens AG. Founded by Braunschweig
businessman Max Jüdel and mechanical engineer Heinrich Büssing in 1873, the
factory was taken over in stages by Siemens in the following decades. Innovations
from Braunschweig have consistently shaped the development of railway
infrastructure worldwide. Today, Siemens Mobility continues to research and
develop technology at its Braunschweig facility that makes rail infrastructure
more efficient, sustainable, and reliable.
- New Industrial Edge partnerships enable easy integration of machine vision into Siemens automation technology
- Improves product quality control and addresses labor shortages
- Basler cameras combined with Siemens automation portfolio create a standardized infrastructure for visual inspection also for TIA
- MVTec app on Industrial Edge facilitates end-to-end anomaly detection
Two industry leaders in
machine vision and industrial image processing are independently joining forces
with Siemens. As a result of the new partnerships, customers will be able to integrate
machine vision applications directly into their existing automation technology.
By combining their respective strengths, portfolios, and experience, it will be
possible to offer plug-and-play machine vision solutions – aligned portfolio of
automation and machine vision components consisting of hardware and software.
- Siemens and Continental Tires sign strategic supplier agreement
- Machine standards expected to maximize interoperability and flexibility
- Siemens to supply automation and drive technology, software, industrial communication, and training
Continental’s tire division and Siemens have signed a
strategic supplier agreement. As Siemens announces on the sidelines of the Tire
Expo trade fair in Hannover (Germany), the company will supply automation and
drive technology for Continental’s tire factories worldwide in its capacity as
a preferred supplier. The aim of the cooperation is to further optimize
Continental's global tire production with innovative control and automation
technology. As part of the agreement, standards will be established which will
help Continental make its production machinery even more efficient throughout
their lifecycles.
- Snälltåget
implements Sqills S3 Passenger from Sqills, a subsidiary of Siemens Mobility
- Implementation
to support with longest night train route in the EU
- Increased
capacity, improved passenger experience
Swedish open-access rail operator Snälltåget has announced
that it will be implementing S3 Passenger, the dynamic pricing, inventory management,
and reservation system offered by Sqills, a Siemens Mobility
subsidiary. Snälltåget
and Sqills have opted for a phased approach in terms of
implementation: The Swedish operator will benefit from a short time-to-market
while adding more functionalities in the months after go-live. One feature that
Snälltåget will be using from the start is the support for cross-operator
cooperation as a way for providing through tickets. This will further improve
passenger comfort when booking long-
distance trips. S3 Passenger is based on the
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model and is part of the open, digital business
platform, Siemens Xcelerator, that enables customers to accelerate their
digital transformation easier,
faster and at scale.
