About 130 people gathered Feb. 19-22, 2018, in San Antonio, Texas, for product presentations, emerging-technology discussions, and a market trend outlook at the Siemens Factory Automation SCADA/IPC Days 2018. Members of the company’s management, sales, and support teams joined partner and end-user companies from various market segments to review the company’s new product offerings in the industrial personal computer (IPC) segment, as well as a number of new platforms in the supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) segment.
Presentations covered the digital factory strategy and the company’s move to digitalization, cloud computing and edge computing, and the hardware and software elements of digitalization. New thin-client IPC products and emerging technologies were presented, along with the latest version of Simatic WinCC SCADA systems.
End user Derek Thoma of Hop Valley Brewing, a Miller/Coors company, spoke on the improvements in production and product quality tracking made possible by the IPC and HMI provided by Siemens, in addition to the SCADA software for process monitoring and management.
