Innovation et gestion de programmes synchronisée et collaborative pour les nouveaux programmes
Massive adoption of E-commerce and same-day delivery expectations have disrupted the logistics ecosystem. Material handling equipment OEMs must reinvent themselves to keep up. But meanwhile, they must also secure their daily business by timely delivery of mainstream equipment. The digital twin and digital thread approach by Siemens will help material handling equipment OEMs successfully navigate through this complex transition period, by accelerating the delivery of any material handling equipment type, from mainstream to advanced.
Heavy equipment companies cannot afford to miss out on the ongoing innovation wave, which can be characterized by the massive introduction of new capabilities based on digital technologies and by electrification. They must investigate how to upgrade their products, define their future span of activities, and rethink their position in a market that is in full transformation. But to create the necessary bandwidth for such existential considerations, they must secure their daily business by timely delivery of current equipment.
By accelerating equipment design and delivery, Siemens helps OEMs successfully navigate through this complex transition period. Siemens Accelerated Equipment Design solutions offer OEMs a collaborative design environment for multi-disciplinary design to specifically address those challenges that slow down product development and equipment design. These include dealing with many equipment design variants, increased design complexity, regulatory compliance, and disconnected design workflows.
Le secteur de l'équipement lourd a atteint un tournant critique. Les fabricants sont confrontés à d'énormes défis. Ils doivent se conformer aux réglementations en matière d'émissions de gaz à effet de serre et de sécurité de plusieurs gouvernements, tout en intégrant les technologies connectées que les clients exigent.
Les fabricants d'équipements lourds doivent combiner la simulation et les solutions IoT pour créer la prochaine génération de machines. Les solutions de Siemens pour l'ingénierie prédictive des performances intègrent la conception multi-physique, la simulation, les tests et l'analyse des données de terrain dans des flux de travail communs et connectés afin de produire des résultats précis plus rapidement, tout en faisant des économies.
Heavy equipment manufacturing companies must manufacture a totally new generation of machines to address today’s increasing demand for digital technologies, electrification, and specialization. This adds complexity to their heavy equipment manufacturing process, such as more components from more diverse suppliers and a greater degree of customization. To stay in business, they must find a way to deliver this without affecting their margins, thereby additionally challenged by having global operations and an increased mandate to implement a sustainability strategy.
With smart heavy equipment manufacturing capabilities, Siemens helps companies win in the global marketplace by making what their customers demand in an efficient and sustainable way. Siemens Smart Heavy Equipment Manufacturing solutions offer heavy equipment manufacturing companies all the necessary capabilities to achieve zero defect manufacturing everywhere. They can achieve this by optimizing their manufacturing operations and by digitally connecting departments and locations, throughout their organization as well as with suppliers.
Heavy equipment service lifecycle management and analytics on large data from equipment service and operation are trending. OEMs consider equipment service an excellent revenue opportunity during turbulent economic times. Besides, their greater involvement in equipment service is also required to master the exploding complexity in today’s increasingly software-driven and customized machines. But how should OEMs position themselves amidst the current equipment service offer, typically involving dealers and specialized equipment service providers?
Through Siemens Service Lifecycle and Analytics, OEMs can become partners rather than merely vendors, and enrich the equipment service value chain with their unique product knowledge. Equipment service lifecycle management helps OEMs boost overall equipment service efficiency by ensuring service execution consistently happens based on accurate, comprehensive, specific, and up-to-date machine configuration data. Besides, through equipment service lifecycle management and analytics, OEMs can also close the loop between equipment service and design to continuously improve machine performance and to better tune equipment service into the actual need.
Model-based systems engineering (MBSE) has become indispensable for today’s innovative machine design. Heavy equipment development programs have always happened under pressure because of machine complexity, the numerous configurations, and the timebound delivery. Still, many OEMs spend half of their resources on fixing integration problems due to flawed communication between domains and with suppliers. Today, with software, digital innovations and electrification multiplying the interactions between subsystems and with the environment, they can no longer afford that.
With MBSE, they can eliminate all static document-based information exchange between stakeholders from across departments and suppliers. Instead, MBSE helps them drive dynamic collaboration between everyone, based on shared system models and their interactions at the interfaces, while continuously focusing on the overall requirements. In this way, MBSE will help OEMs achieve their design goals faster and dramatically reduce the risk that problems are discovered late, when they are expensive or even impossible to fix.

From warehouse management to shop-floor operations, to field operations, and more - material handling spans a wide range of activities, all requiring dedicated machinery. That led to a fragmented material handling equipment market, with a lot of niche specialization, and a relatively stable competitive landscape in each subsegment. Today, however, ongoing evolutions are disrupting the status quo. These include accelerated adoption of e-commerce, consumer expectations like same-day delivery, stock-keeping units (SKUs) becoming commonplace, the deployment of warehouse networks, aging workforce, and more. Their common outcome is increased demand for digitalization, automation and integration of services and activities.
New applications, based on emerging technologies like automation and artificial intelligence (AI), are rapidly gaining ground, including autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and automated storage-and-retrieval systems (ASRS). Material handling equipment OEMs must embrace such innovations, upgrade their offering, and/or diversify their activities. They must redirect their focus to resolving fundamental questions like how to shorten overall lead times while logistics become increasingly complex. And next, how to achieve this while minimizing total cost of ownership, aiming at longer replacement cycles and lower maintenance, and in a sustainable way, with regulations for safety and emissions becoming ever more stringent?
Material handling equipment OEMs are at a critical point in their existence, where they need to define their future span of activities. The must investigate what is necessary to deliver the innovative material handling solutions and business models that will make them successful. Meanwhile they need to secure their daily business by timely delivery of mainstream equipment. By accelerating the design and delivery of their material handling equipment, Siemens Digital Industries Software provides OEMs with the necessary bandwidth to explore the feasibility of innovative applications and take the lead in an industry that is in full transformation.
