Siemens / Hannover Messe 2019From Edge to Bitcoin!
No, Siemens' trade fair appearance at this year's Hannover Messe does not suggest any absolutely revolutionary innovations! - Rather, the charm of the presentation lies in the continuous expansion of digital solutions for the implementation of Industry 4.0.
With the 7KN powercenter3000 IoT data platform, Siemens is expanding its digitalization solutions for electrical energy distribution in industry, infrastructure and buildings. The intelligent data collector collects energy and system data from up to 40 connected measuring and protection devices and transmits it to local energy management systems or directly to open, cloud-based IoT operating systems such as MindSphere. The data is pre-processed and bundled into packets, which reduces the transmission volume. The data is processed, visualized and evaluated via an integrated web interface, the energy monitoring software powermanager or special cloud applications. The 7KN powercenter3000 also offers small and medium-sized companies a fast, flexible and cost-effective introduction to cloud-based energy management. By systematically recording and analyzing data, they can make their operations more energy-efficient and fail-safe.
