By Alessandro Cereseto

Leveraging out-of-the-box solutions for complex assembly and job shop environments

Opcenter™ Execution Discrete (EX DS) 2407software, which is part of the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio, the comprehensive and integrated portfolio of software, hardware and services, is designed to meet the needs of industries that execute sequential discrete manufacturing functions, including:

  • Automotive tier suppliers
  • Aerospace and defense tier suppliers
  • Energy and utilities
  • Industrial machinery
  • Heavy equipment
  • White goods and home appliances
  • Complex parts manufacturing and assembly
  • Additive manufacturing

Specialized Out-of-the-Box Functions

By using Opcenter Execution Discrete you can leverage specialized out-of-the-box (OOTB) functions for complex assembly manufacturing, job shop environments (high complexity, low volume) and automated repetitive manufacturing industries (configurable products, high volume).

Installation and Update Options

Opcenter Execution Discrete 2407 can be installed directly or as an update. This release includes:

  • UI industry template MX-powered: consolidated template for batch production and quality inspection execution

Technological Upgrades

Opcenter Execution Discrete 2407 will run on a completely renewed technological stack, including:

  • .NET 8
  • Entity Framework Core 8

This significant technological upgrade will bring benefits in increased runtime performances and development productivity in Project Studio; it is also an important step bringing Opcenter Execution Discrete closer to being operating system agnostic

New Capabilities for Complex Manufacturing

Version 2407 introduces new capability for complex manufacturing app in operator terminals to support flexible serialized work order.

Adoption of New .NET Technological Stack

As of 2407, Opcenter Execution Foundation adopts the new .NET technological stack. The new .NET technological stack uses Entity Framework Core for database access and entity management.

Compatibility and Configuration

All Opcenter Execution Discrete solutions are recompiled in .NET Standard and validated to be run on .NET new technological stack.

To preserve compatibility, at runtime you can let your backend be executed by either a .NET Framework Worker or by a .NET Worker. When post setup is running on fresh installation is possible to configure which worker will be used.
