Integrate various
weighing applications into the automation system.
Address complexity caused by
different weighing electronics from multiple manufacturers, which
previously required manual effort.
SIWAREX: A Siemens weighing solution directly
integrated into the automation and control system.
Features:
Standardized data sets, parameter structures, and operating philosophy.
Scalable with up-to-date function and visualization blocks.
Utilizes existing infrastructure (power supplies, operating devices, I/Os, control cabinet).
Eliminates manual integration effort through pre-tested, continuously updated blocks.
Better
monitoring of this critical weighing system results in more effective
error-finding and shorter repair time. It also ensures product quality and less
waste product. This part of the process has become more cost-effective.
