How can you measure and optimize energy consumption of a industrial machinery?

The energy consumption of a industrial machinery or an entire production system is often a significant factor in manufacturing costs. In this webinar you will learn how to determine and optimize the energy requirements of your industrial machinery or even machine tool depending on the operating status in order to minimize manufacturing costs and CO2 emissions. Siemens’ experts will cover the following topics:

  • Using Siemens products as an energy measuring device for the common energy monitoring in your application (Energy Suite & Drivetrain Analyzer)​
  • Learn “what to measure where”​
  • How energy data is communicated from all the sensors to the PLC and beyond
  • Strategies for minimizing energy consumption

Attendees will also have the opportunity to ask individual questions.

Register for this one hour webinar on July 22nd. Siemens offers two options, 9 AM or 4 PM (UTC +2), just choose the session that fits your agenda the best.
