This all leads to transparent operation

A better overview of production processes, machine states, and energy consumption
With the Totally Integrated Automation Portal (TIA Portal) you ensure transparent production with optimized processes and improved availability of your machines and production plant. Integrated energy management creates transparency for power saving in accordance with ISO 50001. The TIA Portal is thus your perfect gateway to automation in the Digital Enterprise.
Boost your productivity and operate with maximum transparency across the entire lifecycle of machines and plants.
With increasing global competition it’s essential to know everything that is happening in a machine. With transparent operation you can make the right decisions, thanks to consistent data and in-depth analytics. This also raises energy efficiency, an increasingly important factor in gaining competitiveness.
Make the right decisions quickly
The greatest possible transparency through consistent data storage in production lets you make the right decisions quickly. You can prepare data according to specific target groups with the SIMATIC Information Server locally or on a mobile device when you are in the field. The system supports WinCC/WebUX as well as WebNavigator for remote access and control.
- Web-based reporting
Analysis of production data for specific target groups using the SIMATIC Information Server - Web-based operation and monitoring
Flexibly on different devices/browsers using WinCC WebUX or comprehensive remote access with WinCC Webnavigator
Energy-efficient manufacturing while observing legal requirements
The integrated automation solution SIMATIC Energy Suite, the S7 energy efficiency monitor, and the seamlessly connected energy management system Energy Manager enable you to control your energy costs at any time. The SIMACTIC Energy Suite’s easy and efficient capturing of energy data provides you with the energy transparency according to ISO 50001 that’s required to save energy.
- Easy and efficient energy data recording
As an integrated automation solution with the SIMATIC Energy Suite and the S7 Energy Efficiency Monitor - Reduce operating costs
With the comprehensive energy management system SIMATIC Energy Manager
Reduce production downtimes
Efficient and integrated diagnosis of process errors reduces production downtimes and increases the availability of your machines and plants. The standardized machine and plant diagnostic function (SIMATIC ProDiag) gives you efficient analyses of process errors. Integrated system diagnosis helps you quickly identify errors in the automation system across all system components.
- Immediately identify errors in the automation system
With integrated system diagnosis across all system components - Efficient diagnosis of process breakdowns
With the standardized machine and plant diagnostic function (SIMATIC ProDiag)
Easy integration of higher-level systems (MES/ERP systems)
Connecting automation and IT levels by means of open communication makes it easy to integrate higher-level MES/ERP solutions. The standardized SIMATIC OPC UA communication protocol lets you forward production data to systems of other manufacturers. IndustrialDataBridge is used for bidirectional, cross-system communication via standard interfaces, without any programming work.
- NEW: Connecting manufacturer-neutral systems
Supporting the standardized communication protocol SIMATIC OPC UA S7-1500 also integrated an OPC UA client into the CPU, in addition to the OPC UA server.
Also available for free is the SiOME configuration tool. - Multi-system data communication
Via standard interfaces with WinCC IndustrialDataBridge
Discover the whole TIA Portal software portfolio
With the TIA Portal you integrate not only the basic software (STEP 7, WinCC, SINAMICS Startdrive, SIMOCODE ES and SIMOTION SCOUT TIA) but benefit also from additional functionalities with new options like TIA Portal Multiuser Engineering and energy management with SIMATIC Energy Suite in a single interface.
