Siemens and Identify3D Partner to Create Industry Standard for Securing Digital Manufacturing
SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. (PRWEB) August 24, 2017
Today, Identify3D, a software provider for digital manufacturing security and traceability, announced its partnership with global technology leader Siemens to advance their Digital Factory. Identify3D will integrate its technology with Siemens’ Sinumerik computer-numerical control (CNC) and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) software. These integrations will be demonstrated on-site at the EMO conference in Hannover Germany, September 2017, and will be available to Siemens clients in December.
Identify3D empowers digital manufacturers to securely take advantage of the benefits of digital manufacturing through encrypted product data, certified authentication of users and machines, and timed expiration of all digital part designs. Creating a Digital Twin in the engineering phase, the technology enables manufacturers to secure digital IP at the industry’s highest standard.
"Siemens understands the importance of creating an efficient and reliable digital supply chain and is creating the industry standard for the Digital Factory. We are excited to be the strategic partner chosen by Siemens to ensure a secure and repeatable digital manufacturing process,” said Stephan Thomas, Co-founder and Chief Strategy Officer at Identify3D.
“Identify3D provides design protection, quality assurance, and secure data distribution for digital manufacturing. They are experts in data distribution and digital rights management ensuring security and integrity of data along the complete manufacturing value chain – from design to the final product,” said Uwe Ruttkamp, Head of Business Segment Machine Tools Systems at Siemens. “Security and digital rights management will gain more and more importance in various industries.”
Benefits of this software integration
Siemens’ Digital Factory Division provides a comprehensive portfolio of hardware and software to help customers achieve flexible and efficient manufacturing processes with the ultimate goal of a complete digital representation of the entire physical value chain. Through this integration, Identify3D will enable Siemens customers to secure their intellectual property, ensure that products are produced according to defined engineering requirements, and provide full traceability of manufactured parts. A company’s design data can be protected by limiting the number of parts to be manufactured, and repeatability achieved by specifying on which machine, with which parameters, or with which materials the part is produced. Data captured throughout this process can provide traceability for in-depth analytics and reporting.
