3 Integrating the real and digital manufacturing worlds Siemens is an industry leader in manufacturing, and our industry sector factory control and automation products are found in plants around the world. These products are being used to control and optimize assembly processes. Siemens PLM Software knows the challenges facing electronics manufacturers, such as the need of Siemens own fully automated electronics assembly plant in Amberg Germany, which builds automation controllers. Managing the original equipment manufacturer (OEM)/ electronics manufacturing services (EMS) relationship includes receiving and analyzing specifications and managing design information and changes, providing accurate and competitive bids with estimates of cost and production times, managing design information and changes, collaborating across the entire life of the product, managing internal and external production factors, and in the case of an original design manufacturer (ODM) supplier, delivering a robust design environment that can map customer requirements and specifications to a successful product design. Siemens PLM Software provides product lifecycle management (PLM) solutions that enable EMS companies to effectively collaborate with OEM customers, and optimize the manufacturing of increasingly complex products. The real manufacturing world is converging with the digital manufacturing world to enable organizations to digitally plan and project the entire lifecycle of products and production facilities. What has made the Amberg plant so successful is the integration of three specific critical manufacturing technologies: Product lifecycle management; manufacturing execution systems, and industrial automation.

4 Improving the manufacturing of increasingly complicated products Pressures in the EMS Industry Continuous cost pressures Operational excellence (including supply chain management, manufacturing) High flexibility Global support of customers Knowledge of needs in different industries Markus Aschenbrenner CEO Zollner, USA Production ramp up time, pricing pressures, customer changes, technology changes, global markets and supply chains are some of the top issues facing electronics manufacturing services providers today. Whether your OEM customer is a consumer or an industrial electronics company, or your company provides full design and logistical services as an ODM, product lifecycles continue to shrink, which means bringing increasingly complex products to global markets entails more effort and risk than ever before. How do you address these pressures? How do you manage product content and collaborate with all stakeholders to reduce the risk, time and cost, while improving quality and aligning products to meet customer demands? Planning, designing, manufacturing and servicing products must be managed in unison to provide products that not only work, but also meet customer needs, hit price points and align with regulatory requirements. Zollner Group implemented Siemens PLM Software digital manufacturing solutions, resulting in: Consolidation of 2 plants into 1 in one month Significantly more effective process planning Reduced cycle time, work-in-progress and stock Substantially shorter project turnaround time More consistent on-time delivery Winning new business 4

6 Leveraging HD-PLM to improve the product development and production processes The Siemens PLM Software integrated information environment helps you manage and capitalize on your intellectual property. Siemens PLM Software revolutionizes the way EMS companies develop and manufacture products through smarter decision-making. It starts with a collaborative decision support platform that aligns work streams to accelerate development and empower decision making. We call it high definition product lifecycle management, or HD-PLM. HD-PLM is achieved by harnessing the complexity of information and processes in product development and manufacturing, and then presenting that information in an active, intuitive, in-context manner that enhances the user experience and supports smart decisions, anywhere and anytime. You can reduce the time it takes to make decisions, and improve the quality of those decisions. 6

7 Our solutions capture requirements from all your sources: business and voice-of-the-customer, as well as environmental and regulatory sources, driving product efforts from OEM design integration and change management to validation, manufacture and support, confirming all stakeholders are aiming at the same target. But success requires more. Time-tomarket, quality, sustainability, supply chain collaboration and complexity all weigh on your efforts. The Siemens PLM Software integrated information environment helps you manage and capitalize on your intellectual property (IP) by enabling strategic re-use of design and production IP and components. By providing information where it s needed, in a form that facilitates smart decisions, you can reduce the time it takes to make decisions, and improve the quality of those decisions. Additionally, making processes accessible to all relevant parties facilitates collaboration and the understanding of all contributors, thus reducing the time and costs of the product production lifecycle, shortening time-to-market and enhancing quality. Requirements-driven processes, integrated information and collaboration contribute to building the right product and building the product right. You can get there with a future-proof, scalable architecture that delivers an HD user experience, protects your investment and maximizes the benefit. 7

9 Providing the full production picture EMS providers must optimize electronics manufacturing productivity to meet the demands of global OEM customers, requiring high flexibility and agility. EMS companies must manage operational complexity, have a global support footprint, and address constant pressure to drive costs down, while continuously promoting operational excellence. Siemens PLM Software provides electronics manufacturers with the capabilities to create an optimized production environment to meet the increasingly complex product needs of their OEM customers. EMS leaders must utilize production resources efficiently to support the needs of multiple customers and products, be responsive to changes in the marketplace and compliant with a variety of global regulations and directives that can mean the difference between a product being a success or failure. Siemens PLM Software also provides a single source of truth to manage design information for multiple products across all of your OEM customers, and the mapping of that information to the production information within your plants. Supplier information is also managed to ensure components adhere to all OEM customer requirements and specifications, while allowing you to optimize vendor components across products and customers. Siemens manufacturing execution systems (MES) software for electronics ties it all together, according to Gerry Bellehumeur, director of quality for embedded systems at Curtiss-Wright Controls. This software issues and tracks work orders, but also goes the extra step of including the information needed for manufacturing (design files, drawings and bills of material), which can be used to access from the other applications. This Siemens solution delivers information electronically to manufacturing engineers and shop floor personnel, eliminating the labor that used to be required to obtain and distribute paper documents. This approach also saves paper. Since the group started using the Siemens solution, the shop floor has become 99 percent paperless. More importantly, production always gets accurate and up-to-date information, preventing costly mistakes and rework. Siemens PLM Software provides the full picture. Siemens PLM software ties it all together. 9

10 Managing product complexity and facilitating flexible manufacturing Designing and validating the new product introduction (NPI) process offline allows full use of manufacturing resources... Siemens PLM Software has been helping customers increase the speed of their production processes by integrating the physical environments of production, automation and manufacturing. Through this integration, customers have been able to turn what were once serial tasks into a concurrent approach. Through the concurrency of these processes, customers are able to realize reductions in time-to-market. Short product lifecycles, seasonal demand fluctuations, intense competition and increased end user customization allow little time for developing optimal manufacturing processes. This complexity is further compounded by the fact that EMS providers need to cope with multiple live products at any given time. Designing and validating the new product introduction (NPI) process offline allows full use of manufacturing resources, whether for high-mix or high-volume scenarios, resulting in maximum uptime and achieving highest throughput from time of production launch. The process is inherently flexible as users are able to select specific lines or manufacturing sites based on simulation results in the process plan. This flexibility also enables EMS providers to cope with severe volatility in the form of fluctuations in job orders, sudden schedule changes and increased production mix. Whether you operate as a pure EMS or an end-to-end ODM provider, Siemens PLM Software offers a fully unified suite of solutions to improve the efficiency and profitability of your organization, and can facilitate the effective collaboration between you and your customers. 10
