Siemens continues to extend its range of products for what has come to be known as the „Digital Enterprise“ – or the achievement of end-to-end digitalisation. At the Hannover Messe 2016, Siemens will be showcasing an array of innovations in the fields of power distribution, automation and drive technology as well as industrial software. Under the banner „Ingenuity for life – Driving the Digital Enterprise“, the Siemens booth in Hall 9 at the Hannover Messe 2016 will be offering an overview of the company‘s extensive portfolio over an area of 3500 m².

Siemens continues to extend its range of products for what has come to be known as the „Digital Enterprise“ – or the achievement of end-to-end digitalisation. At the Hannover Messe 2016, Siemens will be showcasing an array of innovations in the fields of power distribution, automation and drive technology as well as industrial software. Under the banner „Ingenuity for life – Driving the Digital Enterprise“, the Siemens booth in Hall 9 at the Hannover Messe 2016 will be offering an overview of the company‘s extensive portfolio over an area of 3500 m².
Under the banner of „Ingenuity for life – Driving the Digital Enterprise“, Siemens will be providing an overview of its comprehensive portfolio for industrial customers over an area of 3,500 square meters at the Hannover Messe from 25 to 29 April.
The four cornerstones needed to achieve a digital transformation are integrated software tools and systems, industry-capable communication and security solutions as well as data-based services. These will enable manufacturing companies to achieve faster, more flexible value adding processes and so cater more specifically to individual customer needs, allow them to respond far more rapidly to new market demands, and make it easier for them to develop complete new business models. Although industrial enterprises are facing different demands depending on their field, the central challenges are the same for all companies: Reducing the time-to-market and increasing flexibility and efficiency while achieving an ever higher standard of quality.
Portfolio for industry software expanded
Siemens took an important step towards extending its offering for the „Digital Enterprise“ with its recently announced plan to acquire the US company CD-adapco. Speaking at the press conference ahead of the fair, the Digital Factory Division CEO Anton S. Huber said: „By supplementing our portfolio of industrial simulation tools to include the market‘s leading software tool for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and integrating world leading experts in this field, we are significantly expanding our expertise in the extremely important field of model-based product development“. Siemens aquires CD-Adapco for 970 million US$. The software solutions cover a wide range of engineering disciplines including Fluid Dynamics (CFD), Solid Mechanics (CSM), heat transfer, particle dynamics, reactant flow, electrochemistry, acoustics and rheology. Last fiscal year, CD-Adapco had over 900 employees and revenue of close to 200 million US$. On average the company increased its revenue by more than 12 % annually over the past three fiscal years.
Over the past 15 years, Siemens has continuously expanded its portfolio of software tools offered as part of its „Digital Enterprise Software Suite“. The Digital Enterprise Software Suite offers a comprehensive portfolio of integral software-based tools focusing on Teamcenter as a collaboration platform. „Using the software tools, communication solutions, security concepts and solutions, and an open platform for data-based services offered by Siemens, manufacturing companies are already in a position to invest in future-proof automation solutions for the step-by-step implementation of Industrie 4.0 solutions today“, said Huber. „Digitalisation gives them the capability to significantly speed up their value adding processes and so engineer, produce and market their products far more quickly and efficiently.“
Increased flexibility, reduced time to market
With the „Digital Enterprise“, Siemens is offering solutions designed to address the specific requirements not only of drive technology but all sectors of the process industry. These solutions combine the world of planning and operation to create an integral plant management concept covering the entire lifecycle of an industrial plant. Its basis: integral software products and solutions which enable the entry, exchange and documentation of all relevant data and therefore digitalisation of the entire plant (integrated engineering). All the necessary data are available centrally in real time. This allows use of the virtual, identical digital twin of a plant created during the engineering phase to simulate and optimise its commissioning, operation and maintenance. „The transition from integrated engineering to integrated operations is a key step for our customers in the process industry on their way towards Industrie 4.0, and enables considerable improvements in terms of speed, flexibility and efficiency to be leveraged. We offer integrated solutions across the entire life cycle of a plant and are the first supplier ever to make available an integrated data model. This is how we are supporting the development of the Digital Enterprise“, explained Dr. Jürgen Brandes, CEO of the Process Industries and Drives Division.
Siemens at the Hannover Messe 2016
Under the banner „Ingenuity for life – Driving the Digital Enterprise“, the Siemens booth at the Hannover Messe from April 25 to 29 in Hall 9 will be offering an overview of the company‘s extensive portfolio over an area of 3,500 square meters. The booth will feature solutions and products for electrification, automation and digitalisation, offering visitors to Hanover the chance to experience an array of innovations in the fields of power distribution, automation and drive technology as well as industrial software. Exhibits will include the new performance features of the TIA Portal V14 and the innovative service concept based on MindSphere – Siemens Cloud for Industry. In the field of motion control applications, Siemens is launching a coordinated package comprising the Simatic Advanced Controller and Sinamics servo drive system. Also new at the fair will be the latest release 8.2 of Simatic PCS 7 featuring additional convenience functions, the Simotics reluctance drive system with an extended output range and Simotics AMB active magnetic bearing technology. In the field of energy management, Siemens will be presenting two new series of its molded case circuit breaker 3VA from the Sentron portfolio in compliance with American standards with UL approval, and the modular multi-channel current measuring system type 7KT PAC1200.
Using a range of concrete examples taken from practice, Siemens will be demonstrating ways in which companies can benefit by from the merger of the real and virtual worlds.
