The fibre industry uses a huge amount of energy, and this is the optimum approach to effectively use and save valuable resources.
Seamless integration of simple drives Siemens has paved the way to digitalisation with its Integrated Drive Systems (IDS): By being able to be seamlessly integrated in every drive system, every automation environment and even over the complete lifecycle, Siemens IDS creates real drive systems, based on simple drive components. The next generation of Simotics SD motors from Siemens offers a comprehensive digitalisation package to address future challenges in drive technology. The new Smart Motor concept allows motor condition data to be simply analysed in MindSphere – allowing motor data to be accessed from anywhere around the globe. Based on a model of the SST- 600 steam turbine, Siemens has demonstrated how steam and also gas turbines can be used as generators or mechanical drives in the fibre industry. Using virtual reality glasses, it is possible to view other turbine models – and experience the world of turbines live. Based on all these applications and more than 100 years of experience as a partner to the fibre industry, Siemens supports this sector to handle the challenges posed by digitalisation – both today and in the future.
