Tasks encountered in most automation projects include user administration, maintenance and planning – and this is where you benefit strongly from increased efficiency. And that’s why Siemens offers software tools that can perform these tasks quickly, easily and efficiently, across all of your automation projects.
Software for shared tasks at a glance
The powerful tools offered by SIMATIC software will save you valuable time, allowing you to focus on your core automation tasks. This achievement is derived from an integrated system approach, open interfaces, intuitive user guidance, plus clear, consistent user interfaces
Software for network planning and commissioning
Industrie 4.0 has been a feature of the production sector for some time, at least when it comes to data:
The complexity of industrial networks is constantly increasing because connectivity is required from the sensor all the way to the cloud.
The downside: Incorrectly planned networks can quickly reach their limits here if the data volumes have not been taken into account as early as in the planning phase. In the worst case, such bottlenecks in data traffic even result in the failure of devices and segments so that larger production sections could be affected. One of the main tasks of predictive network planning is to correctly assess the available network resources to enable sound decisions to be made about how to proceed.
