Therefore, some builders are using modular components and arrangements of subassemblies. However, this comes at the cost of integration challenges when revising software, hardware or electronic systems with the need to retest each part for its impact on other engineering disciplines in the newly configured module connectivity.

Siemens offers a complete and holistic framework to help cope with today’s machine engineering market challenges.
