Grow your business with ecosystem partnerships
- drive digital transformation together with our customers

As part of the SPS in Nuremberg, there was a review of our very successful hackathon by our Technology Committee in September 2022 at the Grob Werke in Mindelheim.

On Stage:

Dr. Donatus Weber, Director Digital Services, Kampf Schneid- und Wickeltechnik GmbH & Co. KG
Andreas Faath, Managing Director Machine Information Interoperability Department (MII), VDMA
Ulf Könekamp, Chairman, Digital Industries World

Scot Gardner opens the general meeting of the German association with this short speech on the further development of our IoT community and the new naming

Climate change and sustainability are top priority issues. We need to reduce CO2 emissions, cut energy and water consumption, and minimize waste.

Especially energy consumption is a major cost factor for all manufacturing companies. It offers opportunities to optimize processes and implement sustainable solutions. The aim is to develop sustainable business cases that pay for themselves. Digital solutions leverage the Internet of Things (IoT) to transform energy management and drive sustainable processes in enterprise networks.

• What do sustainable business models look like that fulfil economic and ecological goals in equal measure?
• How is sustainable energy management integrated into the corporate strategy?
• What needs to be done to reduce costs, avoid penalties, prevent energy fluctuations, and sustainably lower CO2 emissions?
• Which technologies are used, and what investment can be expected?

The Technology & Services Industry Association (TSIA) is a leading research and advisory firm dedicated to helping technology companies achieve profitable growth. With extracts from his latest book, Digital Hesitation (for publication May 2022), Thomas Lah examines why most B2B companies are failing to reach the full potential of their digital transformation efforts and how we should expect that failure will play out across the industry. Thomas provides actionable insights on strategic issues like influencing the board of directors, as well as specific topics across the next generation of operating models.

Tim Zhang and Teresa Martinez-Roca, Product Management at MindSphere, will give you an exciting overview of the software and especially the focus topic "Forecasting and Anomaly Detection". 

Advanced Analytics on MindSphere - Connecting your machine to the industrial Internet of Things is a great first step toward collecting and analyzing data, making informed decisions about your equipment, increasing revenue, and reducing downtime. But what’s next once you’re connected? Take the data you’ve collected about your devices and use automated artificial intelligence (AI) to build predictive models and generate forecasts. With Anomaly Detection and Forecasting, we have entered the era where users are truly empowered to discover insights.

Teams of university students from the Politecnico di Milano challenged each other in a competition to design and implement the best Industry 4.0 application:

Team one:
Bottleneck project manager is an IoT solution for monitoring automatic multi-station lines and helping operators to intervene promptly in solving problems with the best corrective action. It also provides suggestions on how to reconfigure the line to increase its capacity and make it less sensitive to unexpected events.

Team two:
MindSafety App increases the occupational safety of operators and ensures that the correct ergonomic rules are applied. The solution detects the movements of workers who are subjected to demanding tasks or who are at risk of long-term damage. MindSphere analyzes the workload over time and informs in case of increased risk.

Fusebox (Estonian startup) The application they developed bridges energy markets and smart buildings.

Prashant Adkoli, Product Manager at Siemens Digital Industries Software and Melanie Ruhe, Head of Global Product Management at MindSphere, will give you an exciting overview of the software and especially the focus topic "Native Message Queuing Telemetry Transport".With Native MQTT, we have entered the era where machines can tell MindSphere what the data model should look like.

Native MQTT is also a big step towards asynchronously sending commands and data to devices in the field. It allows you to create solutions where communication is bidirectional.

Remote maintenance enables a significant increase in uptime and offers a wide range of potential cost savings. In this webinar, you will learn about exciting capabilities that MindSphere Remote Service offers over conventional solutions.

SITRANS SCM IQ – Smart Condition Monitoring with IIoT Sensors

Empowered by robust, wireless multi-sensors, the new Siemens app SITRANS SCM IQ monitors the condition of your plant's mechanical components, like pumps, compressors or gearboxes at any time. The anomaly detection – based on machine learning – is built right into the system. It is designed to constantly monitor and analyze all sensor values and deviations from the normal operating state before sending them to your maintenance personnel. The solution detects impending equipment failures, enables predictive maintenance, and helps you prevent plant downtime.

Wo ist die eigene Digitalisierung jetzt wichtig?
