Siemens recently officially released the "Siemens Industry 5G Fully Connected Factory White Paper" (hereinafter referred to as the "White Paper") during the 2023 Siemens Electronics Industry Customer High-End Forum. Combining with the evolution of 5G technology application environment and market demand, it sorts out its own exploration of 5G in the industrial field. Successful practice of application landing. The white paper interprets Siemens' application cases in the automotive, logistics, steel, electronics, food and beverage industries, and deeply analyzes how Siemens combines its cutting-edge technology and mature ecology with 5G networks, providing guidance for the implementation of industrial 5G in more industries.
"As a future-oriented technology, industrial 5G is not only the key infrastructure for building smart factories, but also creates more possibilities for the large-scale application of key technologies such as artificial intelligence and edge computing. With the acceleration of the large-scale application of 5G technology, how to Exploring more application scenarios has become the top priority of industrial 5G development." Wang Haibin, executive vice president of Siemens (China) Co., Ltd. and general manager of Siemens Digital Industry Group in Greater China, said, "In this white paper, Siemens summarizes its own The key technologies and industry experience in the field of industrial 5G provide knowledge and experience empowerment for the implementation of 5G technology in thousands of industries. In the future, we look forward to working with more Chinese industry partners to tap the huge potential of 5G fully connected factories and jointly describe an exciting future A new picture of the future industry."
The integration of 5G and digital technology realizes data-driven production in an all-round way
The white paper reviews Siemens, as one of the leading companies in the field of industrial communications, a number of achievements in the research and development of industrial 5G product portfolio and related solutions. In 2022, Siemens officially launched an industrial 5G solution for the Chinese market, providing safe, high-speed, and flexible industrial 5G end-to-end communications. Siemens industrial 5G supports industrial protocol transmission, and the control PLC can realize PROFINET communication with industrial field I/O modules, so that more and more industrial field devices can be interconnected through industrial 5G, realizing comprehensive monitoring of massive data in the whole plant and automatic control of production lines , precise scheduling of mobile devices, ultra-remote system debugging and fault diagnosis and other applications.
The combination of Siemens' advanced digital technology and 5G can further accelerate the transformation and upgrading of data-driven production and operation, and help Chinese industrial enterprises improve their digitalization level. For example, the integration of 5G and PROFINET can establish an open industrial automation network ecosystem and better realize the integration of IT and OI; the combination of 5G and Siemens edge computing can establish an industry-oriented local ecosystem. The deployment layer and scheduling layer are deeply integrated to better meet the network, computing and data processing needs of the factory; taking advantage of the low latency and high reliability of 5G, the Siemens energy management system can upload energy consumption data faster and more securely To the enterprise digital platform to help enterprises achieve sustainable development.
Focus on seven application scenarios, and deepen more industry tracks
Siemens has not only created a real-time, secure, industrial 5G solution that supports industrial protocols and is compatible with Siemens hardware and software products, but also actively explores new tracks in the industry and tailors application solutions for more industry customers. Starting from the whole process of factory production management, the white paper selects seven typical application scenarios of 5G+ fieldbus full connection, 5G+ remote, 5G+ data acquisition, 5G+ intelligent logistics, 5G+ energy management, 5G+ production simulation, and 5G+ edge computing. Describe the specific applications of Siemens Industrial 5G in different industries.
In the automotive industry, Siemens has deployed industrial 5G terminals on electric monorail conveying system (EMS) trolleys, realizing real-time and secure communication between the trolleys and the main controller on the ground, and reducing hardware laying compared with traditional methods. Reduce costs, reduce maintenance difficulty, and simplify equipment space layout. In the airport industry, Siemens 5G technology, with its high bandwidth, low latency, and strong connection, satisfies the long-distance, efficient, and reliable transmission of airport airport equipment control signals, multi-channel video and other information, helping to create a digital, unmanned "smart airport" ". In the food and beverage industry, the realization of 5G large-bandwidth wireless coverage in the factory can improve the communication capacity, help realize the traceability of raw materials, intelligent product manufacturing, precise product customization and convenient cold chain logistics, and accelerate the development of the food and beverage industry. Digital transformation process.
Driving the future of the industry with the power of digitalization, Siemens Electronics Day ended successfully
The 2023 Siemens Electronics Industry Customer High-End Forum with the theme of "Digital Intelligence Dual Drive, Shaping the Future Together" was successfully held in Shenzhen. Through keynote speeches, white paper releases, and symposium exchanges, Siemens shared its cutting-edge insights into the development of China's electronics industry, and fully demonstrated how its digital technologies and solutions can enable high-quality and sustainable development of the electronics industry. During the forum, Siemens also had in-depth exchanges with various partners in the electronics industry, and jointly created a new ecology of cooperation in the electronics industry through technology sharing and co-creation.
