Train brake test rig - just one instead of three PCs
Measuring systems made to guarantee safety on railroads are subject to the strictest quality requirements. Train brake test rigs therefore require a parallel running data analysis and display program. Inspection and monitoring are extremely complex. Sab Wabco in England used to run three computers. PC-based Automation from Siemens solves all the tasks with just one PC - and is less susceptible to failure. The system is also open to expansion.
Painting plant - in the best of form
In the Audi paintshop in Neckarsulm an innovative automation concept has proven itself: PC-based Automation with subordinate distributed intelligence. The operating station PC and SIMATIC WinAC coordinate the intelligent drives on the conveyor belts, the distributed intelligence of the plants for inlet and exhaust air including heating and exhaust gas purification. Control cabinets are saved.

Crashtest - everything stays in one piece
Crashtests in the automotive industry in which nothing is damaged save enormously on costs. Sudden braking is replaced by equally fast acceleration, a clever idea which is very difficult to put into practice. Because different technologies need to be exactly coordinated: the software for the high-speed range which incorporates the know-how of Instron Schenk in Darmstadt, the control and regulation of upstream and downstream processes, data processing, visualization and archiving. The common platform for these technologies is PC-based Automation from Siemens.
