The customer wanted to optimize its maintenance and at the same time have a better service for its MV converters (2x SINAMICS GM150). In order to offer the customer a digital solution, he was convinced by SIDRIVE IQ. 
This project began as a pilot in March 2021 with the commissioning of the IPCs within the SINAMICS GM150. The GM150s drive critical blowers that are essential to maintaining maximum plant availability during 24/7 operations. With SIDRIVE IQ, Siemens aims to demonstrate how our analytical IIOT solution can meet the customer's goals for maximum availability and improve internal KPIs.

During an error, the customer was informed by a service technician and the problem was solved within a very short time. This has convinced the customer of our digital offering, which makes him want to equip significantly more assets with SIDRIVE IQ. 
How do you get the team to be more relaxed? When they all know there is less risk of failure, or that we have better availability, that’s the be all and end all for us. And it will be even better in the future, since SIDRIVE IQ gives us the database we need to be able to trust every choice we make.
