Omnidirectional multi-dimensional empowering enterprises to build green smart logistics

In order to better empower enterprises to build a green and intelligent logistics system, Schneider Electric, an expert in digital transformation in the field of global energy management and automation, has brought an omnidirectional and multi-dimensional automation digital solution for the logistics industry, aiming to help customers in upstream and downstream logistics industries such as manufacturing, on-site logistics, express delivery e-commerce, airport baggage sorting, and cold chain. Through digital transformation to achieve the “efficient, accurate, flexible, green” four values, and then create a future-oriented enterprise core competitiveness. At this exhibition, Schneider Electric fully displayed its automation component hardware products, digital software products and lean consulting services, aiming to lead the green intelligent journey of the logistics industry:EcoStruxureTM Open Automation Platform: A new software-centric industrial automation system that enables a step-change in operations throughout the entire life cycle. EcoStruxure open automation platform is based on IEC 61499 international standard, through hardware and software decoupling to break the limitations of the existing system, can achieve the true integration of IT/OT, thus promoting the logistics field “plug and play”. By combining flexible automation solutions, easy deployment and rapid transformation methods with the deep application of algorithm-based technologies, EcoStruxure open automation platform can also help logistics enterprises achieve digital continuity of the whole process from design to operation based on a unified platform and unified source of asset data. At the logistics exhibition, Schneider Electric has brought the newly upgraded EcoStruxure open automation platform V23.0 version this year to provide the logistics industry with a unified control software platform integrating operation and operation, and continue to empower customers to improve efficiency.
EcoStruxure MET Machine Expert Digital Twin Software: A scalable suite of digital twins for the entire machine lifecycle, EcoStruxure MET Machine Expert Digital Twin software creates digital models of real machines for virtual design, virtual commissioning, and agile development before the machine is built. The digital twin also supports remote commissioning to ensure the safe and efficient operation of the logistics system by modeling the actual flow and operation logic of the enterprise. In addition, customers can develop and add custom model components for their own business needs. With the digital twin, companies can reduce commissioning time by 60%, time to market by 20%-50%, and save 10%-20% in quality costs based on tests conducted before and during commissioning.
