关于客户
本案例研究中的客户是一家特种车辆制造商。他们在高度分散的市场中运营,生产具有独特要求和功能的车辆,例如救护车、消防车、扫雪机和出租车。每辆车都有自己的外部硬件,以独特的方式与车辆及其控制装置进行交互。该制造商正在努力应对为每种新车辆或设备型号创建定制网关模块的高成本和耗时的过程。他们与 Flex 合作的目的是降低生产成本并缩短上市时间。
挑战
由于市场高度分散,特种车辆制造商面临着一系列独特的挑战。救护车、消防车、扫雪机或出租车的设计和生产要求截然不同,每种都有自己独特的外部硬件,与车辆及其控制装置进行交互。连接该硬件与车辆的网关模块是为每种新车辆或设备型号定制的。这种定制显着增加了特种车辆制造商的设计和生产成本。此外,它还延长了将特种车辆推向市场所需的时间,装备商需要花费长达 18 个月的时间来配置必要的定制硬件和软件。其中一家制造商联系了伟创力,寻求一种降低生产成本并缩短上市时间的解决方案。
解决方案
Flex 针对客户的问题提出了革命性的解决方案 - 智能网关模块和 FlexConfig 应用程序。该系统取代了传统的定制网关模块,无需为每种新的特种车辆型号配置新的硬件和/或软件。相反,Flex 的解决方案是一个单一的、高度可配置的盒子,可以在任何新车上使用。该制造商以前需要复杂的电气工程技能,甚至需要外包来配置网关模块,现在可以使用模块附带的 FlexConfig 应用程序直接升级软件本身。 FlexConfig 提供简单的图形编程界面,使制造商能够通过配置智能网关模块来满足自己的需求,从而节省生产周期中的宝贵时间。此外,伟创力还提供了遥测系统,使车辆能够与中央调度进行有效通信,提供实时状态更新和对某些操作方面的控制。

Case Study
Integral Plant Maintenance
Mercedes-Benz and his partner GAZ chose Siemens to be its maintenance partner at a new engine plant in Yaroslavl, Russia. The new plant offers a capacity to manufacture diesel engines for the Russian market, for locally produced Sprinter Classic. In addition to engines for the local market, the Yaroslavl plant will also produce spare parts. Mercedes-Benz Russia and his partner needed a service partner in order to ensure the operation of these lines in a maintenance partnership arrangement. The challenges included coordinating the entire maintenance management operation, in particular inspections, corrective and predictive maintenance activities, and the optimizing spare parts management. Siemens developed a customized maintenance solution that includes all electronic and mechanical maintenance activities (Integral Plant Maintenance).

Case Study
Monitoring of Pressure Pumps in Automotive Industry
A large German/American producer of auto parts uses high-pressure pumps to deburr machined parts as a part of its production and quality check process. They decided to monitor these pumps to make sure they work properly and that they can see any indications leading to a potential failure before it affects their process.
