Siemens backs digitalised production of batteries

April 2018 News

Siemens facilitates the efficient large-scale production of batteries with a comprehensive solution portfolio of software-based systems as well as automation and drive technology spanning the entire value chain.

At important upcoming industry events, the company will present its ‘green field approach’ for competitive battery production. This means digitally developing an ideally scalable factory for battery cell production that enables smart control and creates transparency of performance with regard to quality and costs. As a lever for these requirements, Siemens relies on the integration and digitisation of the entire value chain, from designing the battery cell, to planning the production processes, to engineering, production and services. In this way the company aims to position itself as a preferred partner in current and future projects for battery production.
