In today’s highly competitive industrial environment, customers are becoming more and more demanding and machines need to be more intelligent than ever. As a result, Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) now need to be able to supply machines with shorter lead times that are more efficient, productive and reliable - all at a reduced cost.
To help OEMs meet this challenge, Schneider Electric, the global specialist in energy management, has launched MachineStruxure – an innovative new automation platform that significantly reduces time to market and improves overall machine performance.
In recent years, machines have become notably more intelligent. This in turn has increased the complexity as well as the time which it takes to integrate all the various automation elements. Using the integrated SoMachine software, specifically developed for OEM machine builders, the whole automation project can be kept and managed in one place simplifying the development process and saving up to 50% of your time.
The SoMachine software allows users to design, commission and service their machines in one single environment. This means OEMs are able to program and commission controllers, Human /Machine Interfaces (HMIs), drives and motion controllers and sensors, from one front-end control point.
Automation solutions can be built quickly using ready-tested and proven architectures, helping to further reduce machine development time. As part of the MachineStruxure solution, Schneider Electric offers advice and support throughout the full machine lifecycle, ensuring you are best placed to stand out from the competition by delivering effective solutions to market with shorter delivery times and crucially, at reduced costs.
