TIA Portal: New solutions for Siemens platform

SPANGLER – the Plus of Reliability.

SPANGLER Automation has systematically prepared itself for the use of the new engineering platform by Siemens. Since 2009, the Dietfurt software specialists have systematically inspected the TIA (Totally Integrated Automation) portal in its application as a beta tester and orientated this to customer requirements.
Therefore, from autumn 2014, Spangler will also be able to provide its customers with reliable solutions for the new platform.

Partner for new developments

The TIA portal links hardware and software into one system, and in this way creates an integrated engineering system. At SPANGLER, a four-person development team has worked on adapting the portal to different applications, and has configured individual customer solutions on the basis of the Siemens technology. “As a reliable partner for new developments, we wish to provide our customers with the necessary safety during a system change,” says Thomas Zenk, Head of Process Automation at SPANGLER, on the objectives of this project.
