Recently, the 2024 Schneider Electric Innovation Summit with the theme of "Double Progress, New wisdom" was held in Qingdao. At the scene, Schneider Electric displayed a series of high-tech, high-efficiency, high-quality green digital innovation results, as well as full-scene solutions for various industries, through a series of innovation results and deep industry experience, to empower the development of industrial new quality productivity, help enterprises accelerate digital and green low-carbon "double transformation", to achieve technology-driven, ecological win-win high-quality development.
With the proposal of "new quality productivity", scientific and technological innovation represented by artificial intelligence, big data and other technologies has become an important starting point to promote industrial innovation, accelerate the promotion of new industrialization, and promote the new jump in social productivity. At the meeting, Ding Xiaohong, senior vice president of Schneider Electric and head of Industrial automation business in China, said: "In the context of 'double transformation', high-quality development in the industrial field needs to be based on advanced digital technology, a future-oriented innovation ecology, and the joint efforts of users and partners across the industry. In this regard, Schneider Electric will use the two engines of technological innovation and ecological innovation to work with more industry colleagues to build industrial impact and move towards a more efficient and sustainable future."
Based on the new trends and new needs in the industrial field, Schneider Electric has always been anchored by innovation and injected a steady stream of digital green energy into the enterprise. At this year's Innovation Summit, Schneider Electric showcased many innovative technology achievements and solutions that integrate digitalization, automation and electrification, in order to help enterprises accelerate their dual transformation.

Industrial software is the core technical support to drive digital transformation, which needs to be coordinated with hardware and combined with scenarios to effectively cut into users' application scenarios and actual pain points. As an important support for Schneider Electric's "soft and hard" innovative solutions, the fully upgraded AVEVA industrial software solution integrates digital twins, AI, machine learning and other cutting-edge technologies to bring efficiency improvements to the entire life cycle from design and construction to operation and maintenance. At the same time, the EcoStruxure™ open automation platform, based on the IEC 61499 standard, can integrate hardware vendors under a single standard, achieve software-defined automation, and decouple hardware and software to promote "plug and produce" in industrial automation.
As the automation products of the summit, the new generation of Modicon M310 motion controllers and the Lexium 18 series servo are local products developed by Schneider Electric's R&D center in China. The Modicon M310 motion controller is based on the Codesys 3.5SP19 software platform, supports EtherCAT bus and built-in advanced processors, and has strong computing power, high ease of use and high flexibility to help industrial companies build high-end manufacturing equipment and automated production lines. The Lexium 18 series servo has four functional highlights: adaptive resonance suppression, terminal vibration suppression, STO safety function and dynamic braking. With a series of servo motors, the LEXIUM 18 series servo motors can create more efficient and intelligent flexible manufacturing equipment and production line for users. Among them, the Lexium 18E bus servo driver, which also supports the EtherCAT bus protocol, works seamlessly with the Modicon M310 motion controller to form a motion control iron triangle based on the EtherCAT ecology. Help customers in packaging, electronics, electrical, machining and other industries to create highly adaptable and stable motion control systems.
In addition, Schneider Electric also displayed new products including Harmony SSP1*E single-phase solid-state relays, Modicon series ABL2D rail switching power supplies, as well as innovative solutions in low and medium voltage distribution, microgrid and other aspects to help enterprises improve production efficiency and energy efficiency.
