Siemens serves machines throughout their life cycle – from the initial idea and concept through operation to retrofitting.

After all, innovative service concepts for machines offer enormous potential for optimizing life cycle costs. The cost-savings potential is not in the procurement price for new machines and systems, but, above all, in the development, engineering and operating costs.

Considerably lower overall design costs and greater productivity can be achieved early on when new machines are being planned and designed.

A central goal of the production process is to reduce unit costs. These are affected by expenditure incurred to operate the equipment during production, for example, personnel and tool costs.
