A selection of accompanying events and special shows form the framework to the EMO Hannover and supplement the exhibition spectrum.
- Digitalization check: transparency of the digitalization capability of the machine park
- Virtual commissioning for OEM: faster commissioning and shorter time-to-market for machines
- Retrofit services for machine tools: economical retrofit measures instead of new investment
At the EMO 2017 in Hannover, Siemens is exhibiting new and expanded digital and classic Services for the machine tool industry – with new capabilities for identifying and exploiting additional productivity potential for machine tools. Machine tool operating companies use the new Digitalization Check as a Service from the portfolio of Manufacturing IT Services to create transparency of the digitalization capability of the machine park. With Virtual Commissioning as a Service, machine manufacturers (OEMs) use a virtual twin to significantly speed up both commissioning and time-to-market.
- Through its strategic partnership with Identify3D, Siemens is offering new ways of protecting the manufacturing processes
- Data encrypted in NX – decrypted in SINUMERIK 840D sl
- Stringent security solution along the digital value chain
- The new security solution will be presented at the EMO 2017 trade fair in Hannover
Siemens is offering new, comprehensive possibilities for data protection in the field of digitalization when third-party service providers are involved in the manufacturing process. With a view of data security licensing and encryption, the corporation has entered into a strategic partnership with Identify3D (ID3D). ID3D has integrated the solutions for security and traceability of digital production processes into the Sinumerik and PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) portfolio of Siemens. Data encryption, including time stamp, is already included in the 3D CAM (computer aided manufacturing) software NX. Decryption takes place on the SINUMERIK 840D sl. Through the cooperation with Identify3D, Siemens has secured the integrity of all process data along the entire value chain with an end-to-end security solutions. Siemens and Indentify3D will present the software integration at the EMO 2017 in Hannover. With the integration of these new solutions into the Siemens portfolio, customers will be able to protect their intellectual property, have their products produced according to the individually defined parameters, and comprehensively track the produced parts.
