The Beginning of Smart Factories, PLM Technology, and Implementation Information
Published2015.11.09 16:40IoT has served as a catalyst to further boost manufacturing competition. Accordingly, efforts toward technological advancement are increasing, and there is a push to transform existing equipment in the digitalization of production design and manufacturing execution.
Siemens PLM Software supports customers and partners in staying ahead of the competition. As part of this strategy, Siemens PLM Software hosted 'Siemens PLM Connection Korea 2015,' the largest user conference in the domestic PLM industry, on November 5th and 6th. The event was a great success, with over 1,000 users and industry experts in attendance, including Siemens PLM Software's strategic partners such as Dell, NVIDIA, and HP.
This year, the company's new vision for realizing true innovation in a smart, all-connected digital environment was introduced. In addition, the features and advantages of Siemens PLM Software's 'Smart Innovation Portfolio,' which enables this, were introduced through various presentations.
Han Il, Representative Director of Siemens PLM Software Korea, stated, “The winds of digital disruption are blowing across all markets. We are currently passing through a critical period, and the technologies adopted now can determine our future position.” He added, “For manufacturing companies, this is a special time to drive innovation by redefining processes and remodeling the workplace. Siemens PLM Software’s Smart Innovation portfolio supports manufacturing companies in transforming into digital enterprises and achieving true manufacturing innovation.”
Siemens Presents Blueprint for Korea's Smart Factories
He explained that the smart innovation portfolio enables manufacturing customers to increase profitability and improve overall performance by transforming their factories into powerful digital enterprises. He explained that many manufacturing companies are paying increasing attention to the value provided by PLM solutions as a means to realize innovation in the digital age, and emphasized that in line with this trend, Siemens PLM Software provides customers with solutions based on industry-leading technology to help companies improve production efficiency and economic viability, and strengthen competitiveness through the advancement of product development and manufacturing processes.
This was followed by a presentation titled "The Road to Smart Factories" by Guenther Klopsch, Head of the Digital Factory / Process Industries and Drives business unit at Siemens Korea. Introducing the case of Siemens' Amberg plant in Germany as a model for smart factories, he presented a concrete blueprint for smart factories, which are part of the government's recent manufacturing innovation strategy.
In addition, various industry-specific challenges and requirements faced by companies were reviewed, and industry-specific solutions and customer success stories were presented.
