Customized Automation
Perfectly tailored to individual requirements
Customer-specific products from the SIMATIC portfolio
provide you with the individual adaptations and add-ons
in the quality that you know from our standard products.
For the proven standard SIMATIC products (e.g. HMI, IPC, and
S7), we carry out the modifications that are necessary in order
to meet your requirements. This ranges from minor design
modifications, hardware modifications, customer-specific
tests and certifications, to changes in the service, support and
logistics. Depending on the extent of the modifications, we
distinguish between customer-specific design, OEM solutions,
and turn-key products.
Customized products – individual in design and
functionality
Customized design
with visual adaptation of SIMATIC products for integration into
your individual machine and system design, e.g. by modifying
the company logo, membrane color, or enclosure color. The
design products are exactly the same as the standard products
in terms of technology and functionality.
With the aid of the new digital Express Design, all of the
SIMATIC HMI Touch Panels can be provided with photo-realis-
tic front design. If at least three units are ordered, the devices
will be available with your own corporate design at short no-
tice.
Multi Panel with individual front design
Product modifications for OEM customers
go beyond a design change. OEM products are individual so-
lutions based on SIMATIC standard products.
The adaptations of the scope of delivery and the functionality
of the OEM products are coordinated, specified, and imple-
mented with the customer on an individual basis. They range
from minor supplementations of the products to a completely
individually designed device with TIA integration.
Adaptations can be implemented by combining standard
SIMATIC components all the way to individual components
and software adaptations.
Customer-specific turnkey products
are ready-to-install and ready-to-use products, which you can
obtain from us as the single-source supplier. They are com-
bined, assembled, wired and pre-installed, ready-to-use ac-
cording to your specifications and corresponding to the specif-
ic technical requirements of the standard products.
