Siemens will present its hardware automation and software technology portfolio, highlighted by its digital-native CNC platform, SINUMERIK ONE, for machine tool applications at IMTS 2022.  Siemens will also present its solutions and services for the industrialization of additive manufacturing (AM). The company will highlight how machine users can embark on their digitalization journeys – from part concept to design, digital twin to simulation, part and machine production, and total integration of these processes into the digital enterprise for job shops and production departments.

In the Controls and CAD-CAM pavilion (booth #133346), Siemens will demonstrate the end-to-end production and installation of a transmission housing and bracket for the eRod, an autonomous electric vehicle that will be in the booth for visitor inspection. The parts are made by additive and subtractive machining processes. At every stage of the part’s development, including machining, display kiosks will take visitors through the digital process. From the popular Siemens NX CAM design software, which enables the use of 3D models, data, and processes to seamlessly connect planning and shopfloor operations on a digital thread to the powerful SINUMERIK ONE, the digital-native CNC that permits a digital twin of the machine and its full operation in production, Siemens has streamlined machine shop operations and leading automotive, aerospace, off-highway, and medical part production facilities.

In the Additive pavilion (booth #433028), Siemens will demonstrate its CNC implementation into the additive and additive/subtractive production worlds, displaying part production processes from design to the finished part. Visitors can discuss manufacturing challenges with Siemens to determine the optimum method of part design and manufacturing, whether one-off or full production runs, all performed with digitalization methods for validation and time/cost containment. 

Additional highlights of the Siemens booths will include:
