Empowering industrial machinery engineering – eBook
Check out a recent Siemens ebook discussing the evolution of traditionally engineered products to digitally simulated designs and outlining the four key trends in machine engineering. Increasingly complex products are driving consumers to demand customization to meet specific needs for their products. In turn, a customer’s machinery must support flexible, smart connected machines through the Internet of Things (IoT).

Advanced Machine Engineering (AME) ensures the development of next-generation machines. A digital twin provides the machinery to advance in this industry that is demanding customization. Furthermore, collaboration is crucial with multiple disciplines to allow smart connected machines to reduce the time to market using virtual design and commissioning. This innovation results in improved validation, shorter commissioning times and faster productivity, leading to significant innovation in highly competitive global markets.
Learn how AME addresses four key trends in the machinery industry:
- Consumer-driven customization requires highly flexible machines.
- Smart machines are intelligently connected machines via the Internet of Things (IoT).
- Hyper-automation, a combination of multiple machine learning, packaged software and automation tools.
- Global competitive pressures from new, low-cost providers have never been higher.
The good news is that advanced capabilities are now available to manage the entire bill of materials (BOM) for all options and variants for advanced machine builders by providing support throughout the product life – from engineering design to manufacturing and service life.
Machine manufacturers need to build smarter machines to compete globally with shrinking margins and expand customization and environmental and government regulations. Advanced machine engineering delivers a digital thread for engineering, enabling companies to develop sophisticated machines more rapidly while lowering development, production and operational costs.
Therefore, advanced machine engineering enables the simulation of multi-disciplinary models for extensive use of innovative manufacturing automation technologies early in the process. Furthermore, these sophisticated design solutions effortlessly support complex, optimized models for a considerable increase in design flexibility.
Advanced machine engineering delivers a multi-disciplinary, synchronized engineering platform, providing thousands of features and requirements to allow numerous configurations. It further ensures constant, multi-disciplinary innovation that empowers a global collaboration to access new market geographies successfully with less cost.
