Overcome engineering hurdles and limited operational insights on the automotive shop floor with automation that leverages software mechanisms and applies their benefits to the OT world. Replace a hardware PLC, a conventional HMI and an edge device with an all-in-one application platform.
Challenge
Engineering efforts increase when shop floor components lack cohesion and maintenance isn’t streamlined. Missing connectivity, uniformity and common IT/OT management further hinder efficiency and usability in automotive operations.
Solution
Siemens SIMATIC Workstation works as an on-premises OT device built on industrial edge technology. It enables manufacturers to run a wide range of modular applications and unifies OT disciplines in a single, closely integrated automation platform.
Run modular applications and combine OT disciplines in one integrated automation platform. With the Siemens SIMATIC Workstation, manufacturers gain:
Optimize shop floor space with a simplified setup of fewer components and variations.
Minimize software and security updates through central deployment. Benefit from real-time decisions for machine and line operations.
Simplify the workstream for PLC, HMI and Safety engineering with a single, proven platform for engineering and deployment.
