Field connectivity involves the connection of all field devices to central machine control. This includes the easy integration of sensors via standardized I/O interfaces in order to connect the field level to the superordinate control level.

Remote access makes it possible to securely access a machine from another location for purposes of commissioning or service. This means that the experts necessary for commissioning or modifying machines no longer have to be present on site. If a machine fails, a precise diagnosis and expert support are vital for quickly getting the system running again. Remote access also allows you to operate and maintain geographically distributed systems reliably and transparently, even in hazardous, isolated, or contaminated environments.

Standardization has many facets and encompasses different products, processes, and tools. It can be implemented in any industry. Those companies that do nothing about implementing it may not understand the potential of standardization. An appropriate advice on standardization can open many doors and ensure a holistic approach for a given client. Those that may be pursuing standardization approaches or have implemented standardized solutions could benefit from continuous improvement. There is always room for optimization as standardization is a never-ending theme and the market and innovation change very quickly.

Below are some advantages you will see with SIMATIC WinCC Unified System:

SIMATIC WinCC Unified is the fundamentally new visualization software in the TIA Portal

The fundamentally new SIMATIC WinCC Unified visualization system can be used for any number of applications, from the Unified Comfort Panel mounted directly on the machine to the complex SCADA solution on PC systems. Configuration is performed uniformly in the Totally Integrated Automation Portal (TIA Portal). Thanks to the web technologies used, global access during operation of the system is possible from any location using any modern web browser.

Siemens TIA Portal V19 Grace Period Offer

Interested in upgrading to TIA Portal V19 and keeping your engineering runtime software up to date?

Siemens has already released the highly anticipated TIA Portal V19, and they want to ensure that you have a seamless transition to the latest version while also staying current with your engineering software throughout the year.

Thanks to our new CMMT-MP family of multi-protocol servo drives, machine builders can work smarter — not harder. Each drive supports EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, PROFINET and Modbus TCP communication protocols, reducing drive inventories, strengthening supply chains and simplifying engineering efforts through the use of one familiar platform. At Festo, the multi-protocol servo drives have already enabled us to reduce our part numbers in inventory from 24 to 8 while simultaneously improving deliveries to our customers.
