Taking the automotive industry to the fast lane with Digital Enterprise
Tomorrow's competitive advantage for the automotive industry – starting today
Digital Enterprise is the comprehensive portfolio from Siemens for the digital transformation with solutions for the specific requirements of the automotive industry. The automotive industry is the technological trendsetter among manufacturing industries. It keeps evolving on a fast pace and is a driver of the new era of digitalization. Digitalization with the Digital Enterprise solution portfolio helps the automotive industry to turn their ideas into successful vehicles faster and more efficiently.
Maximum flexibility in the automotive industry
Automotive industry is still focusing on conveyor belts and rigid processes, which were developed and built before the beginning of production. However, there’s an increasing demand for individualized products and production with a lot size of 1. In the video you’ll learn how Porsche together with Siemens was able to design the production of the Taycan in a flexible and space-saving way that a customized and individual manufacturing is ensured.
The most holistic digital twin
The holistic approach of the Digital Enterprise for creating digital twins in the automotive industry offers tangible benefits: You can substantially reduce the number of prototypes you need during the development of new cars. It becomes possible to predict the performance of the production unit and the products themselves. And it ensures you can produce what your customers expect in terms of individualization and drive concepts.
Watch the recordings of the Digital Enterprise Virtual Summit
The Digital Enterprise Virtual Summit on July 16, 2020 was a lively, interactive digital event that brought together decision-makers and experts from various industries. You can now watch videos of all presentations, discussion panels, expert talks and deep dives on-demand at your convenience.
Digital Enterprise – Realize your digital transformation
The value of the digital twin in automotive industry
The dynamic development in the automotive industry is continuously increasing and confronts companies with new challenges. Worldwide demand for electric cars is on the rise, while the driving public – also those of us unwilling to make the move away from conventional drive systems – dreams of ever more individually designed cars.
AI in automotive production for higher efficiency
Automotive production is becoming smart. By interlinking production with artificial intelligence (AI) technologies – even during production.
Thanks to an innovative combination of digital methods and intelligent applications, it is now possible to automate processes that were previously difficult or impossible to automate. With the help of artificial intelligence, robots are learning to recognize damage to car bodies – and thus to produce even better in the future.
Taking autonomous vehicles to the fast lane
Autonomous vehicles will revolutionize the transportation industry like no other change since the invention of the automobile. Creating these vehicles demands agile, model-based development with integrated data flows and a heavy reliance on software-based simulation capabilities. Siemens PLM Software offers a full set of autonomous vehicle solutions for all key technical domains – from chip design to full vehicle validation.
The efficient way to mobilize your production
Many assembly applications require continuous transportation of components between construction and assembly stations, different assembly halls, or from assembly hall to the end destination. Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) are used to transport components and ensure a reliable relocation.
