Customized hardware

Design products

Customized design means modifying the design and visual impact of Siemens products for seamless adaptation into the customer's individual machine and plant design and special operator philosophy.

The modification options are:

• Changing the company logo and the device type designation
• Changing the keyboard color scheme, the key labeling, or the key symbols
• Changing the enclosure color (front frame)

Design products are fully compatible with the standard products in technology and functionality, and can thus be fully integrated into the Totally Integrated Automation environment. Identical technology enables, for example, replacement using standard devices in the event of a fault in case the machine or plant supplier does not currently have a customized product in the spare parts warehouse.

OEM products

Product modifications for OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) customers are suitable for individual, industrial automation solutions that cannot be fulfilled with the help of standard products, or can only be handled with design-modified panels.

OEM products are individual solutions based on standard Siemens components. They are specified, offered, developed and supplied individually in consultation with the customer.

As in a system of building blocks, the standard components, customized components and additionally required software/function extensions are combined to create an OEM device.

Integrated solutions

The customized integrated solutions house the automation system, together with HMI and operator controls, in a single enclosure. The system is developed and manufactured according to customer requirements in the usual Siemens quality. The product is then a ready to start device that can be installed directly in a machine.
