Presentation: Scaling Bayer’s Global OEE Solution with Opcenter Intelligence & Insights Hub
When: Monday, May 13th @ 1:30 PM in Lagoon I
Who: Brandon Johnson, Head of MES/MOM, North America
About:
In the realm of industrial operations, inefficiencies and performance gaps are bound to persist among global organizations without digital solutions in place. This is where Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) serves as a game changer and important solution for manufacturing and production companies. Given its ability to measure equipment and process efficiencies, it provides quality control for a more productive workforce. In this scenario, OEE helped Bayer Crop Science gain visibility on the production and efficiency of manufacturing lines, creating a great basis for comparing metrics between their existing facilities.
In this presentation, viewers will learn how Engineering Industries eXcellence partnered with Bayer Crop Science to provide solutions that could improve processes and gain actionable insights with asset and operational data. Our system integration experts delivered Siemens Opcenter Intelligence and Insights Hub to help teams leverage real-time monitoring support of manufacturing operations, calculate effectiveness and perform downtime analysis. With over 40 sites using these solutions, Bayer Crop Science has learned how to accurately record machine data, measure and manage equipment downtime and engage in proactive maintenance as necessary. Throughout this project's execution, seed site facilities worldwide have gained the ability to streamline operations and refine production.
With this story uncovered, participants will obtain key insights on how OEE provides endless benefits like how to record machine data to analyze patterns, ways to measure equipment efficiency for increased productivity and how to reduce machine failures.
Presentation: Best Practices in Teamcenter Setup for Efficient Data at Henny Penny
When: Tuesday, May 14th @ 11:45 AM in Lagoon G
Who: Andrea Salerno, PLM Practice Service Director and Doug Claywell, PLM Manager
In a world where data is abundant, reviewing shop floor systems and managing product data is a challenging but critical task for seamless collaboration across teams. By implementing robust, comprehensive solutions that cover an entire product lifecycle from design and manufacturing to service delivery, organizations can quickly recognize the importance of synchronized operations.
This presentation will dive into how Engineering Industries eXcellence partnered with Henny Penny to define an Industry 4.0 roadmap. With a corporate-wide data management initiative at the top of mind, the ultimate goals included improving management of extensive product configuration data and communications, increasing reusability of data across systems, refining product quality for metrics and reliability and achieving a completely paperless shop floor.
We will cover the foundational setup of Siemens Teamcenter, exploring valuable insights gained from the redeployment process. It will address crucial aspects of business requirements and streamlined, structured processes that enhance efficiency and effectiveness of Teamcenter implementations. Experts will also uncover key knowledge on searching for product design data, examining landscapes for Bill of Materials (BOM), Easy Plan and Active Workspace Client (AWC). By highlighting the impact that data accessibility has on an industrial organization, users can better understand Teamcenter benefits and how to enhance their overall experience by successfully navigating product design information.
Presentation: Practical Use of Generative AI & Low Code to Empower Decision-Makers
When: Tuesday, May 14th @ 4:30 PM in Breakers CD
Who: Fabio Sala, Vice President and Subba Rao, Director of Manufacturing Industries Cloud, Mendix
The simplicity of low code can enable industrial organizations right now to realize practical applications of generative AI in the manufacturing industry. Join Mendix, a Siemens Business and Engineering Industries eXcellence as we discuss the power of intelligent data applications with simplicity of low-code to transform the knowledge exploration and decision-making process across your operations and enterprise.
Mendix is the fastest and easiest low-code platform used by businesses today to develop multi-experience and multi-platform smart applications at scale. Engineering Industries eXcellence builds intelligent data application solutions for manufacturers leveraging Mendix together with advanced simulation methodologies and Generative AI.
Use cases to be shared and discussed include:
1. Digital Product Passport / Battery Passport: This application showcases the passport viewer built in the Mendix platform for the new European Union battery traceability regulation launched recently
2. Intelligent Decision-Making: This methodology and examples on how to leverage Generative AI together with low-code and its connectivity with Amazon Bedrock and simulation modeling to support the decision-making process in manufacturing.
Presentation: Delivering the Digital Thread with Excellence
When: Wednesday, May 15th @ 11:20 AM in Knowledge Theater 1
Who: Drew Peer, Senior Strategic Account Manager
The traditional manufacturing industry is in the midst of a massive Digital Transformation, growing each day by evolving newer technology solutions. The interaction between the virtual and real worlds is opening new ways for companies to integrate their customers' needs and preferences into their own development and production processes. The utilization of manufacturing data in smart production systems is revolutionizing a seamless Digital Thread, promoting continuous success throughout the entire supply chain. The Digital Thread covers 4 general phases of the manufacturing product and manufacturing process lifecycles:
The integration and continuity between all factors of the manufacturing business promotes re-use of proven successes and enables continuous improvement throughout the business. Overall, the Digital Thread helps manufacturers attain the goals of smart manufacturing facilities, reducing time-to-market with shorter innovation cycles and more complex parts, enhancing flexibility by individualized production with higher productivity, and increasing resource and energy efficiency in all operations.
