By significantly boosting the speed and flexibility of your production facilities, Siemens’ modular and decentralized  Component based Automation (CbA) solution can help you turn this pressure into a competitive advantage.

At the same time, communications via our PROFINET plays a key role in horizontally integrating the various parts of your plant. All components, even those made by other manufacturers, are linked to a single, end-to-end chain via standardized interfaces that can be easily adapted for expansion or changes in production. CbA also supports vertical integration to the managerial level.

OEMs, plant engineering companies and plant operators can all benefit from taking this simple path to automation. With its uniform standards and fast commissioning, CbA gives you more flexibility, and helps safeguard your investment whenever your production requirements change.
