Siemens Simatic TIA Portal v18.0 for PC Windows

Description

Overview of Siemens SIMATIC TIA Portal Benefits

Siemens will present Version 18 of its engineering framework TIA Portal (Totally Integration Automation Portal). Suppose industrial companies are to shorten their time-to-market, counteract the lack of skilled workers, and remain competitive. In that case, they need efficient automation engineering that can be quickly modified to meet new requirements. That’s why the new version of the TIA Portal once again boosts engineering efficiency and offers optimized functionalities for multi-user engineering. This means users can now work in teams and parallel on projects and build and manage shared libraries. Access rights can be assigned either individually or group-specifically, which makes collaboration more flexible.

Siemens is also expanding the TIA Portal ecosystem with IT-oriented workflows – with Simatic Automation Xpansion (Simatic AX). This provides IT professionals with a familiar development environment based on Visual Studio Code and version control via GitLab. This way, libraries with object orientation can be created in Structured Text and integrated into the TIA Portal. The engineering platform – previously a standard tool used with operational technology (OT) – can now be used by IT users without reskilling them. With this development, Siemens isn’t just taking a decisive step towards IT/OT integration; it’s also countering the growing lack of skilled workers in the OT world. Simatic AX is available as a service and cloud-based. Projects can be downloaded and updated quickly and easily at any time and place.
