In a host of references, customers describe how they have automated their processes with Totally Integrated Automation and what practical benefits it has brought them.

		Shell & DEA Oil Integrated into TIA, the SIMATIC PCS 7 open process control system has integral safety and fieldbus technology and enables easy connection of MES applications for process optimization. The result is lower life cycle costs coupled with higher product quality and yield.
		Faltec At Faltec, one of the world's leading manufacturers of folding machines, TIA optimizes the interaction between drives, controllers, and the HMI system. This guarantees the necessary flexibility. Machines and process data can be managed, edited, and analyzed online in ProTool/Pro. Another benefit: 30% less configuring overhead.
		KINETICS TIA's integrated communication guarantees the greatest possible safety and perfect workflow in semiconductor production. Integrated configuring guarantees additional savings potential for the global leader in clean-room technology.
		GlobeGround Open-loop and closed-loop control of deicing systems at large international airports are performed by SIMATIC controllers within the framework of TIA. The extremely high precision required in this work is provided by integrated parameter acquisition with SIMATIC WinCC over intranet or Internet - regardless of location.
		Philipp Morris The consistency of TIA ensures that special machines and systems from different suppliers all work perfectly together. Distributed control intelligence increases flexibility and plant availability. And: the conversion to TIA reduced hardware costs by 15%.
		Meypack TIA makes packing with PLCs, PCs and integrated software so flexible that Meypack is now saving 30% of costs. The company can also adapt extremely quickly to new product versions or modified output rates.
		Saint Gobain TIA integrates the entire process chain at the world's market leader for glass wool. The perfect interaction of the SIMATIC PCS 7 process control system from the controllers down to the process instrumentation and drives level has many advantages: Less overhead during commissioning, time savings, lower costs as well as easier maintenance and servicing.
		on/off engineering Thanks to TIA and the SIMATIC PCS 7 process control system, the on/off engineering office can configure the automation for its customers' large chemical, pharmaceutical and food and drinks plants considerably faster. And offer them an optimum (and simple!) conversion from TELEPERM M to the new system basis.
