what does siemens do?
▼
facing this issue,
if you can only think of these
(ps: siemens has completely exited the appliance business),
you are too young too simple.
as a world-leading technology company, siemens has been immersed in our work and life for more than 160 years. with the strength of technology, the wide range of fields involved, and the vitality of advancing with the times, how can people be a western student without a story?
even with a certain degree of understanding of the company, a short week-long german tour at the end of april quickly refreshed our perception: it was still such a siemens!
crown pearl, etc.< /section>
on april 27th, siemens was located in the gas turbine factory of huttenstrasse in berlin, filled with a joyous atmosphere.
entered the factory through a quiet gate. a group of people came to the workshop following the sound of a violin and found that a small celebration was being held to celebrate the delivery of the 1000th heavy-duty gas turbine at the berlin factory.
1000 units, what is the concept?
more than that.
the delivery of the 1,000th gas turbine at the berlin plant represents siemens' global satisfaction of 1 billion people's electricity demand span>. the total installed capacity of 1000 gas turbines is 220 gw, which is equivalent to the combined installed capacity of spain and italy.
the milestone gas turbine sgt5-4000f is covered by the screen
sgt5-4000f has an installed capacity of 300 mw and a weight of 300 tons. it will be transported to the um al-houl combined cycle power plant in qatar in the future and will work with five other sgt5-4000f five brothers. .
of course, the berlin factory is not just a product of sgt5-4000f, here produces e, f, h three series, such as sgt5-2000e, sgt5-4000f, sgt5- 8000h. on the surface, the numbers in product naming are getting bigger and bigger. in fact, with the evolution of products, their efficiency is constantly improving.
in particular, sgt5-8000h is the world's largest and most efficient gas turbine with a total power of 400mw, equivalent to the total power of 1300 porsche 911 or 10 airbus 380 aircraft. let düsseldorf's combined cycle power plant set three world records:
generating capacity: 603.8 mw
net generation efficiency: over 61.5%
heavy duty gas turbines have always been the most difficult to manufacture mechanical equipment. to achieve extremely high efficiency, the technical challenges of the sgt5-8000h weighing 445 tons can be imagined. the person in charge of the berlin plant told us that the cost of one blade of 8000h can buy a bmw. "the crown jewel" & "did surely deserved reputation."
siemens city remembrance of a century of legend >
in 1897, siemens relocated to berlin and built more and more factories and residential buildings on the spree river, which is farther away from the city. in early 1910, the siemens headquarters building began construction. it can accommodate approximately 3,000 employees, including all company executives. in 1913, this place was named siemens city.
thirty-year-old siemens city looks great
today, this iconic headquarters building is still in use, making it one of siemens germany's three headquarters.
into the headquarters building, will usher in an important landscape: mosaic hall. the ground floor of the hall is made of huge marble parquet flooring. there are many mosaic puzzles on the walls that represent the company's business scene.
beautiful marseille pattern in the hall
the dome was destroyed during the war. later, after the company moved its headquarters to munich, the roof was not repaired again, which is a pity.
in the display window in the building, siemens represents a representative innovation. although it looks very old today, it was black technology at the time.

pointer telegraphthe most famous town pavilion may be this, and it is unfolding siemens history picture.
many people think that siemens has been helping people build cars. in fact, siemens had already built its own car more than 100 years ago, and it was an electric car. it was done for almost 20 years. this is true. the people who eat melon did not expect it.
the protos car parked in the building, built in 1921, is the originator of electric cars
siemens elevator labs the first in the world
siemens used generator technology in elevators in 1880 the world’s first true elevator.
in 1910, the shanghai general trade union building installed a wooden triangle car elevator made by siemens of germany. it is the first elevator in china. so far it has been 100 years old.
the use of modern elevators has brought convenience to people with physical or leg incapacity. in the siemens building, there is an age-old magical elevator that can only be used by agile persons. it does not stop when it arrives, but it is always running. passengers must take the opportunity to storm into and out of the elevator.
even if the mileage you take in and out of the elevator can circumnavigate the earth, this ride experience is also difficult to experience.
west german elevator is the only strategic partner in siemens automation. in lianyungang, jiangsu, china, west germany elevator and siemens automation have jointly built elevator automation labs to explore and develop elevator technology, energy saving, environmental protection, and automation.
in 2015, mr. chen xinhui, chief engineer of west germany elevator, led the technical team to participate in the seminar at the siemens headquarters in germany.
in this seminar, siemens automation and control group's control system experts and the west german elevator technical team gathered together to discuss the development and application of siemens control systems in the elevator industry. in order to strengthen exchanges, cooperation and contacts between the two parties.
the technical experts of the two parties elaborated on the core technologies such as the application of siemens elevator to increase the use of frequency converters in elevators in west germany and the application of siemens electrical components in elevators in west germany. , and reached an agreement to promote the application and development of siemens control technology in west germany elevator technology.
the war memorial on the small square rohrdamm in front of the headquarters was built in 1934 to commemorate the company employees who died in the first and second world war.
the above hawk and sword are typical decorations of the german war memorial
through the front of the building, you can see the towers of siemens city
siemens city in the past, in addition to factories for production, but also residential, church, hospitals, railways and other facilities to meet the needs of the company's employees living.
now siemens city, in addition to the headquarters building and several factories siemens, most of the other buildings have become residential or diverted for other uses, and the omnipresent siemens imprint also silently explained to us a small how did the workshop stand up in more than 160 years and became a legend of a great company.
