|
| Economical Safety |
|  Ensuring safety in automatic processes is not only a question of human obligation but also of economic reason. According to this principle of Werner von Siemens, Siemens Safety Integrated offers comprehensive systems for the production and process industry which can be combined with optimum services for all phases of the life of a safety system or machine.

|
| Efficient End-of-Line Inspection |
|  In order to ensure that the certification of the test results meets the high demands of the automotive industry, Kübrich Ingenieurgesellschaft builds up its inspection systems modularly and scalably on a very robust compact IPC with embedded operating system. All functions are united in one device which makes customer-specific design, commissioning and service much easier and much more efficient.

|
| Flexibly into the Bag |
|  A German manufacturer is equipping his packing machines for sensitive products consistently with the Simotion motion control system and is getting very good results. One example is a packing machine for tampons which allows changeover to other formats continuously and without additional mechanical adaptations.

|
| Tradition meets technology |
|  The G. Baumgartner company has further expanded its window production capacities with the construction of a new production hall. Wood processing machines from Beth along with modern automation technology have netted the Swiss family operation a highly flexible, streamlined and reliable production facility.
|
|
|
| New Dimension |
|  The new Pro-Master CNC machining center from HolzHer-Reich Spezialmaschinen enables perfect 5-axis machining of all types of wooden parts. In addition to its vibration-free operation, the modern Sinumerik 840D solution line control system also plays a key role in the machine's performance, providing optimal results even for high-speed cutting.
|
|
|
| Perfect precision |
|  As a high technology trendsetter, the Weinig company has significantly expanded the possibilities for complete processing of workpieces with its Profiling Center Conturex. To ensure perfect precision, the world's leading manufacturer of machines for solid wood processing has once again chosen to rely on digital control and drive technology from Siemens.

|
| The Safe Way to More Productivity |
|  Today, modularization, efficient automation standards and modern simulation methods allow individualized production solutions to be streamlined more than ever before. The reduced engineering effort enables rapid, precise and calculable implementation, along with an attractive price-performance ratio. For a highly specialized machine, the travel trailer manufacturer Dethleffs and the EiMa Maschinenbau company rely on Sinumerik-based automation with integrated safety technology.

|
|
| More Productive, More Flexible |
|  The vibrator is the central component in the manufacture of concrete products. The productivity of the entire line depends on the productivity of this forming unit. The new vibrator of the OMAG-Tronic machine is much more efficient than its predecessor. At the same time, the availability and flexibility have been increased. Innovative automation technology has enabled this improved performance: Simatic technology CPU and Sinamics converters are optimally adapted to each other so that the machine dynamic has been increased and the work of both the operating and the maintenance personnel made much easier.
|
|
|
| Optimally Adapted |
|  You need a flexible automation architecture to adapt a standard machine to the production environment. New machine modules were developed for an Indian paper manufacturer in no time with a Simotion-based solution. The possibilities of the motion control system were already taken into consideration in the mechanical conception.

|
| Keeping an Eye on the Beer |
|  When brewers turn hops and malt into "liquid gold," its quality is largely dependent on the process technology that in every instance and at all times must ensure optimal operation. The Paulaner brewery in Munich therefore relies on a motor management system that continuously keeps a watchful eye on the product quality.
|
|
|
| With Teamwork to New Solutions |
|  For years, Deckel Maho Seebach GmbH has been utilizing direct drives in its vertical machining centers which enhance the productivity of the end-user. During this process, the cooperation with Mechatronic Support results in shorter development times and a perfect harmony between mechanical system, drive and control.
|
|
|
| Complete Conversion in Just Three Months |
|  Siemens and BMW have been working together for many years. In their latest joint project, the Spartanburg factory in the USA was completely converted into a state-of-the-art facility. Siemens implemented a total of seven key solutions in the final assembly operations - from the joining of the chassis and the engine through different conveyor systems to the complete automation system.

|
| Retrofit gets the Punch Fit ... |
|  ... was the aim of an extensive electrotechnical retrofit of a blanking line and stacker in the body and assembly works of the British automobile manufacturer Jaguar. The manufacturer belonging to the Ford company uses for the first time a combination of Simatic and Simotion from Siemens and, with this, achieves maximum performance and reliable availability of spare parts and support. The project was implemented within a very short time in close cooperation between Siemens Manchester and a team from Siemens Automation and Drives Frankfurt specializing in press modernizations.
|
|
|
| End-to-End Communication |
|  Audi is relying on Siemens control technology for the small series production of its new R8 sports car. Using Profinet with integrated safety technology and wireless communication (wireless LAN), the automobile manufacturer has managed to achieve an unmatched level of end-to-end communication. This in turn has led to reduced commissioning, maintenance, diagnostics, operation and spare parts storage costs.
