Schneider Electric at the Hannover Messe
Shaping the future of the industry
Schneider Electric presents its progress in the field of open, software-defined automation and its latest technological innovations. The press conference was opened by the acting Federal Minister of Education and Research, Cem Özdemir.
Under the motto "Shaping the Future with Technology", the company will show how it promotes industrial competitiveness, sustainability and resilience through automation, electrification and digitalization. Visitors to the stand will learn how open, software-defined automation and AI-driven solutions connect ecosystems.
This will be demonstrated on the circular manufacturing campus using the food and beverage industry as an example. "Innovation in automation is critical for the industry to be adaptable and competitive at the rate of change required today. By integrating next-generation IT and OT operational technology through open, software-defined automation, we are enabling our customers to achieve new levels of industrial performance that closed systems cannot," says Barbara Frei, Executive Vice President, Industrial Automation at Schneider Electric.
Building on the success of EcoStruxure Automation Expert, Schneider Electric introduces the EcoStruxure Automation Expert platform, a unified automation environment that provides a comprehensive view and management of control applications including control logic, motion, HMI, safety and simulation. By integrating continuous, hybrid and discrete processes, the platform streamlines development and maintenance.
It enables multiple users to develop their control data using many common programming environments and work on the same project simultaneously, increasing efficiency and speeding up project development and delivery. The platform includes Automation Copilot, a generative AI assistant developed in collaboration with Microsoft that helps engineers quickly create high-quality, validated code and generate applications. Further applications will be released later this year. am
