Industry
The Industry Sector offers a broad spectrum of products, servic-
es and solutions for the efficient use of resources and energy
and improvements of productivity and flexibility in industry. Its
integrated technologies and holistic solutions address primarily
industrial customers, such as process and manufacturing indus-
tries. The portfolio spans industry automation, industrial soft-
ware and drives products and services, system integration and
solutions for industrial plant businesses. After the close of fiscal
, the Sector decided to dispose of its business of mechani-
cal, biological and chemical treatment and processing of water.
External revenue of the Sector was €. billion in fiscal
, representing % of Siemens revenue. The following
chart provides a geographic breakdown of the Industry Sec-
tor’s external revenue in fiscal .
The Industry Sector consists of the three Divisions Industry
Automation, Drive Technologies and Customer Services as well
as the sector-led Metals Technologies Business Unit. Financial
results relating to the Customer Services Division are reflected
in the Industry Automation Division, the Drive Technologies
Division and the Metals Technologies Business Unit and are
therefore not reported separately.
The Industry Automation Division offers automation systems
such as programmable logic controllers and process control
systems, sensors such as process instrumentation and analyt-
ics, and industrial software such as product lifecycle manage-
ment and manufacturing execution systems software. The
Division’s portfolio ranges from standard products and systems
for the manufacturing, processing and construction industries
to solutions for entire industrial vertical markets, including au-
tomation solutions for entire automobile production facilities
and chemical plants. Furthermore, the Division’s offerings in
fiscal  comprised equipment and related services for indus-
trial process water, industrial and municipal wastewater treat-
ment such as water purification systems, clarification systems
and systems and solutions for water recycling and reuse. As not-
ed above, Industry has decided to divest its business of mechan-
ical, biological and chemical treatment and processing of water.
The Division will continue to offer efficient solutions for the
control, management and instrumentation of water processes.
In fiscal , Industry Automation completed the acquisitions
of RuggedCom Inc., a provider of robust, industrial-quality eth-
ernet communication products and network solutions as well as
several other acquisitions to enhance its offerings for industrial
software. After the close of fiscal , the Division announced
the acquisition of LMS International, a provider of mechatronic
simulation software that expands and complements the Divi-
sion’s product lifecycle management portfolio.
The Drive Technologies Division offers integrated technolo-
gies that cover a wide range of drive applications with electri-
cal components such as standard motors and drives for con-
veyor belts, pumps and compressors, heavy duty motors and
drives for rolling steel mills, compressors for oil and gas pipe-
lines and mechanical components such as gears for wind tur-
bines and cement mills. With its e-Car business, the Division
develops motors and inverters for electric cars for the automo-
tive industry. Drive Technologies offers products such as auto-
mation systems and services for production machinery and
machine tools. The Division’s portfolio includes standard prod-
ucts as well as industry-specific control and drive solutions for
wind power, metal forming, printing and electronic manufac-
turing as well as solutions for manufacturers of glass, wood,
plastic, ceramic, textile and packaging equipment and crane
systems. In addition, the Division offers integrated drive and
automation solutions especially for the marine and shipbuild-
ing, minerals and pulp and paper industries, including related
services over the lifecycle of the solutions.
The Customer Services Division offers a comprehensive portfo-
lio of services and supports industrial customers in their efforts
to increase their productivity. The portfolio includes product-
related services which seek to enhance reliability, profitability,
efficiency and environmental compatibility of industrial plants.
The Sector-led Metals Technologies Business Unit offers en-
gineering and plant-building services for the iron and steel in-
dustry, as well as for the rolling sector of the aluminum and
non-ferrous industries. The Business Unit provides technolo-
gies, solutions, and services for metallurgical plants, integrat-
ed steelworks and minimills. Its vertically integrated supply
capability includes mechanical equipment, drives, motors,
electrics, automation, mechatronics, technological packages
and all environmental systems.
