…and robot cell automation in a multi-robot bin-picking application. Siemens and Realtime released a plug-in for Siemens Process Simulate, further building upon the companies’ long-standing partnership. The plug-in enables customers to incorporate RapidPlan into their regular workflow for added efficiency, and is available in addition to the standalone RapidPlan software. “It takes years of deep engagement with a real industrial manufacturer to understand all their requirements and build against them,” added George Konidaris, co-founder and CTO of Realtime Robotics. “That very long tail of highly-specific, detail-oriented requirements is the thing that actually makes robotics products both hard and valuable, and…

…Source Seshagiri Marellapudi, head of MindSphere IIoT Cloud Platform, Siemens, also pays attention to data, as the backbone of Industry 4.0 transformation. In his presentation, he said, “It's all about how you pull the data from your industrial systems, what you can do with it, and how you produce actionable insights.” MindSphere, he proposes, is a good solution to connect your physical device to the digital counterpart to create a closed loop digital twin lifecycle. In the digital simulation of a factory's operation, for example, “there are often opportunities to improve the production line in reality. Can you create these…

…some of the highlights in robotics from ProMat DX: Siemens introduces conveyor drive Siemens introduced the Sinamics G115D drive for horizontal conveyor applications. The motor, drive, and gearbox are all in one unit that can be wall-mounted or motor-mounted. The drive system includes a high protection class—up to IP66/UL Type 4X—making it suitable for harsh environments, according to the company. The Sinamics G115D can also operate reliably over a temperature range of -22 to 131 degrees Fahrenheit (-30° to 55°C), so it can work in extremely hot or cold conditions, such as those found in the logistics, aerospace, automotive, and…

…Daniel Theobald, Vecna Robotics; and Jose Luis Susa Rincon, Siemens. Making mapping work How does shared mapping work? “Each robot makes its own map, but they use a shared coordinate system,” replied Walker. “It's like hiking with GIS—we use common reference points.” “There was a lot of debate, but users like FedEx have expressed strong interest in indoor and outdoor standards,” Theobald said. “It's basically GPS, which is different from the AGV [automated guided vehicle] world, where the robots precisely follow lines. That's not the way the real world works—it's less about the path than flexibly following goals. A lift…

…the digital twin,” Kasper adds. Orchestrating engineering and operations Siemens has included service lifecycle management in its industrial software portfolio for many years. “Our strength has always been product configuration, understanding how an asset or a plant is configured,” says Yishai Barak, director of service lifecycle management, at Siemens Digital Industries Software. “But this is not the same as service operations. Without consideration of the physical asset in the digital model, you don’t have the full story.” Siemens then retired a few software products from their order book and set about to create a service operations platform that combined partnerships…
