Applications
■ Overview
Our understanding of an application is the customer-specific
solution of an automation task based on standard hardware and
software components. In this respect, industry knowledge and
technological expertise are just as important as expert knowledge
about how our products and systems work. We are setting
ourselves this challenge with more than 280 application
engineers in 20 countries.
Application centers
We currently have application centers in:
• Germany:
Head Office in Erlangen and in other German regions, e.g.
in Munich, Nuremberg, Stuttgart, Mannheim, Frankfurt,
Chemnitz, Cologne, Bielefeld, Bremen, Hanover, Hamburg
• Belgium: Brussels
• Brazil: Sao Paulo
• China: Beijing and 12 regions
• Denmark: Ballerup
• France: Paris
• Great Britain: Manchester
• India: Mumbai
• Italy: Bologna, Milan
• Japan: Tokyo, Osaka
• The Netherlands: The Hague
• Austria: Vienna
• Poland: Warsaw
• Sweden: Göteborg
• Switzerland: Zurich, Lausanne
• Spain: Madrid
• South Korea: Seoul
• Taiwan: Taipei
• Turkey: Istanbul
• USA: Atlanta
These application centers specialize in the use of SIMATIC/
SIMOTION/SINAMICS. You therefore can rely on automation
and drive specialists for implementing successful applications.
By involving your personnel at an early stage in the process,
we can provide a solid basis for rapid knowledge transfer, maintenance
and further development of your automation solution.
Advice on applications and implementation
We offer a variety of consultation services to help you find the
optimum solution for the SIMATIC/SIMOTION/SINAMICS
application you want to implement:
The quotation phase includes
• clarification of technical questions,
• discussion of machine concepts and customer-specific
solutions,
• selection of suitable technology and
• suggestions for implementation.
A technical feasibility study is also performed at the outset.
In this way, difficult points of the application can be identified
and solved early on. We can also configure and implement your
application as a complete solution from a single source.
A large number of proven standard applications are available for
use during the implementation phase. This saves engineering
costs.
The system can be commissioned by experienced, competent
personnel, if required. This saves time and trouble.
If servicing is required, we can support you on site or remotely.
For further information about servicing, please see the section
"Industry Services".
On-site application training
Training for the implemented applications can also be organized
and carried out on site. This training for machine manufacturers
and their customers does not deal with individual products,
but the entire hardware and software system (for example,
automation, drives and visualization).
From an initial concept to successful installation and commissioning:
We provide complete support for SIMATIC/
SIMOTION/SINAMICS! Contact your Siemens representative.
