This reduces your motion software engineering work by up to 80 %, which, in turn leads to a considerable reduction in the time you need to develop the basic functions of your machine. FAST Technologiemodule FAST Motion Camming Positioning FAST Application Template Open standards Lenze automation systems are open systems! Due to the use of market standards, we can network with the manufacturers of other control and drive systems at any time, an ability that enables easy integration into higher-level line structures. This openness makes mechanical engineers and end users confident of being able to adapt to changes in the future. 7

8 Industry 4.0. Cooperative competence becomes a new core competence. Mechanical engineering has always been characterised by a high degree of orientation to the customer, converting the needs of its customers into real technical solutions. With Industry 4.0, possibilities and new facets offering new opportunities arise from outside the known-world of mechanical engineering. Anyone who cooperates with partners faster and more effectively and integrates these partners into their ongoing processes will always win in competition with others. Cooperative competence generates a level of expertise that has answers to end users' trends and the requirements that will be placed on the next generation of machines. It creates technical solutions and innovations that bring decisive benefits: What benefits are most important for you? What technical measures have already been taken? Where do your greatest challenges lie? We look forward to talking to you about possible joint projects and opportunities for the future. 8

10 Extremely demanding production requirements: networking, high throughput rate and safe and reliable processes. Production in the automotive industry is influenced by two crucial factors: just-in-time and just-in-sequence. Both of these have to be guaranteed at all times as, whenever a part of the factory is shut down, enormous costs are incurred as a result. Our Intelligent automation concepts combined with flexible and efficient drive solutions enable compliance with these essential two requirements. Irrespective of the process within the production plant, whether it be the press shop, body shop, paint shop or assembly section, our experts know your processes and can help you to work faster and more reliably, whilst ensuring efficiency and reducing energy consumption. 10

20 Much more than just remote maintenance: Remote Services & Analytics offer added value for OEMs and end users. Industry 4.0 is based on the digital networking of machines, products and components and people as well, of course. We provide a secure platform for remote maintenance in that we link the service technician to the machine via a connection that can be monitored. The machine operator therefore has the assurance that only authorised persons can gain access to the machine and can do so only at the selected time. Moreover, data collected from machines can be saved in a private cloud. The data is then analysed and converted into meaningful figures that enables a deeper insight into how the machines are functioning. We offer you a complete cloud-based quality management system. You can obtain all cloud services from us in the form of a flexible subscription service, which makes the online transfer of machine data scalable. This has several advantages over an in-company system. IT investment, costly software licences and maintenance of any kind are unnecessary. What is also decisive is the fact that complex, individual programming is rendered necessary. Undoubtedly, the most secure solution: The maximum security level Financial Grade Security Encrypted data from the network to the cloud NCP standard Transparent data exchange in the company network Ready for the future OPC-UA/MQTT access to Lenze controller Permanent data transfer to the cloud All data is available for immediate or future analysis Plant management Monitoring of machine utilisation and availability Remote maintenance Worldwide data access Remote diagnostics and servicing Reduces field service assignments by up to 80% Predictive maintenance/ Digital services Predictive detection of potential faults on the basis of the "cloud data Big data as the basis for advisory services for production optimisation by the OEM 20

24 Efficient in all respects. Energy-efficient with Lenze BlueGreen Solutions On the basis of a holistic consideration of the tasks involved, we show you how the energy efficiency of your drive applications can be increased with intelligent drive and automation technology. We also assist you regarding adherence to important standards and laws. Three approaches are pursued in order to increase the energy efficiency of drives: 1. Using electrical energy intelligently: as little as possible Needs-based dimensioning Controlled operation (frequency inverter) Energy-efficient motion control 2. Converting energy with a high degree of efficiency Components with a high degree of efficiency (motors, gearboxes) 3. Using regenerative braking energy Energy exchange between several drives Temporary storage of braking energy Regeneration of braking energy and potential energy % Proportion of potential savings 15% 10% 24

25 Efficient drive sizing with Drive Solution Designer (DSD) Intelligent drive design is the basis for a drive system that has the right components, is exactly dimensioned and is therefore as small as possible. Thanks to DSD, the energy saving potential is apparent at a glance and is documented in the Energy Performance Certificate. It is also easy to comprehensibly compare different solutions. The reason is that DSD incorporates a great deal of useful systems-design knowledge with solidly based driveapplications know-how in areas such as drive physics, variants and energy efficiency. Drive design is based on calculations with individual process data and on speed profiles, and takes into account the complete drive structure for the requirements of the machine in question. In our DSD training course, we will be happy to tell you more about how easy it is to use this engineering tool. 3 AC Comparison of DC supply 2DC Comparison of drive axes Energy exchange via DC bus connection 25
