This is what you can expect from usFor us, reliability begins with precision. And with the sense of responsibility that comes with offering you the best possible service wherever you may need us. We believe reliability also means working with proven, clearly structured processes and checking our improve-ments at regular milestones – all with the objective of getting your plant up and running again faster than ever.
Top performance requires first-rate service …Turbines and generators run with greater safety and efficiency when they are maintained on a regular basis. You benefit from what makes our service truly first-rate – from everything working perfectly together. It begins with our employees, who we train on an ongoing basis, and the experience they gain in their daily work – experi-ence which is then incorporated back into the develop-ment of our machines. It continues with a sophisticated measurement technology that allows us to define the precision requirements of our work with ever-increasing accuracy. Finally, it is the machines that we equip with our own innovative technology: These machines make it possible for us to reach this high level of precision on-site at your plant.
… and a strong, international networkWith On-Site Machining, you can rely on an experienced partner even when you have an unexpected need for our services or require them following a finding report. Thanks to our extensive fleet experience we are prepared for anything and can optimally plan and implement assignments even at short notice. In the end, we need a team of specialists at your plant who are a perfect match for the job. And we have to initiate preparatory measures, select the right machines and shipping agents, and take care of any customs formalities. Despite the organiza-tional work this involves, this approach ultimately results in time savings that will directly help reduce the down-time of your plant.

Planning and improvementAny complex On-Site Machining operation starts with precise measurements and coordination with Siemens Service Engineering. Based on OEM expertise, Service Engineering uses the measurement data and other exami-nation results to develop a suitable machining strategy. This includes improvements or increases in performance that can be achieved through machining operations con-ducted on your equipment. We discuss the possibilities with you on-site and work with you to develop concrete specifications regarding further actions.
Optimal preparation, fast serviceThese specifications take into consideration any special machining conditions at your site, such as the fact that multiple measures may need to take place simultaneously and possibly within a confined space. Through ongoing optimization, we’ve been able to reduce machining times on-site by approximately one third, and we are continu-ously working to achieve further improvements. To save time, our machine tools for interior contours are equipped with dual tool arms. Naturally, we continually review the machining quality and progress to ensure that everything goes as planned.
A closed loop systemThe results from practical applications are also made available to Service Engineering so they can use them for comprehensive analyses. The objective is the con-tinuous improvement of machining processes, machine control, and the programming of complex machining cycles. For this, the data from actual operations provides valuable information. With On-Site Machining, you benefit from a technological edge of several years.
For you, On-Site Machining means greater performance and, above all else, innovative machining possibilities that you will not find anywhere else.

Measure what can be measuredDigitalization is a crucial success factor for On-Site Machining because it helps us to achieve true technolo-gical advances in many areas. One important field is measurement technology, which is opening up com-pletely new possibilities in measurement and in the machining of components thanks to tools such as laser trackers and laser scanners. Today we can perform three-dimensional measurements of complex components and compare in detail any possible changes against the original data. In On-Site Machining, we are able to restore the original contour even in the case of complex special geometries.
Digitalization as the next logical stepPaperless manufacturing, a pioneering technology used in many industries, is now being used in Siemens Field Ser-vice as well. With paperless service, the machining data is developed directly from the 3D engineering data. With this step, we can further reduce machining time in order to minimize downtimes.
Combining and intelligently evaluating dataThe high quality of present-day measurement results not only make it easier to restore original contours, they offer diverse possibilities and approaches for technological improvements. This is especially true in light of the fact that, as an OEM, we have hundreds of similar machines in operation worldwide that provide us with data for exten-sive analysis. In addition, we can draw upon the measure-ment values from different services, such as vibration analyses from the area of predictive maintenance, and compare them to the measured geometry data. The knowledge gained from such comparisons is incorporated in our product development as well as in the ongoing development of our machine tools.
That is On-Site Machining from Siemens.
