DMG MORI offers the first end-to-end digital twin of a machine tool on Siemens Xcelerator Marketplace
DMG MORI and Siemens are presenting the first end-to-end digital twin for machine tool machining on Siemens Xcelerator.
A digital twin for machines
enables groundbreaking improvements for meeting the challenges of
sustainability, flexibility, and time-to-market. The digital twin helps prevent
programming errors that cause scrap and damage to the real machine. It enables
up to 40 percent faster production ramp-up, significantly reducing the energy
consumption of the real machine.
The offer also helps
minimize unproductive machine times by up to 75 percent. This is because the
testing and running-in of programs is moved from the real machine to the
virtual world.
“Digital twins will change
the relationship and interaction between suppliers and customers across the
entire lifecycle of a machine tool. With our DMG MORI Digital Twin, we’re enabling
our customers to achieve higher productivity by shifting unproductive tasks
from the machine to the virtual world. As an open, digital business platform, Siemens
Xcelerator will accelerate our digital transformation,” says Alfred Geißler,
CEO of DMG MORI AG.
With Siemens Xcelerator,
Siemens is underscoring its technology leadership in combining the real world
with the digital world. Sinumerik One is the most advanced CNC system for
highly productive machine tools based on the seamless interaction of the
virtual and real worlds. Through its digital twin, Sinumerik One is the key
element for digital transformation and helps simulate and test machining
processes entirely virtually. This allows NC programs to be completely
programmed, simulated, and optimized in a virtual environment before workpieces
are actually manufactured.
“With this partnership
Siemens and DMG MORI are demonstrating on Siemens Xcelerator the opportunities that
the joint and end-to-end use of digitalization offers for productivity, speed,
flexibility and thus, future viability. This applies to the machine users as
well as in the core to the machine tool manufacturers. Siemens Xcelerator’s
approach of bringing different partners together in an ecosystem for the
benefit of all is impressively demonstrated by the partnership between Siemens
and DMG MORI,” says Achim Peltz, CEO of Siemens Motion Control, who is
responsible for Siemens’ Motion Control business.
The open digital business
platform Siemens Xcelerator creates a powerful ecosystem of partners to jointly
accelerate the digital transformation, each tailored to customers’ specific
business goals. Siemens Xcelerator consists of a selected portfolio of
products, services, and solutions as well as a marketplace.
The DMG MORI DMU40 machine
and its end-to-end digital twin can be seen live at the DMG MORI booth in Hall
2 of the trade fair.
