Internship automation: Creating a Siemens Machinesimulation wi 2025: Automation EFZ

SKAN, founded in 1968, is one of the pioneer companies in the field of cleanroom equipment and isolator design for the global pharmaceutical industry. Innovative products, customer-specific solu-tions and an efficient service organisation have led SKAN to become a global market leader and im-portant partner for industry and research laboratories.

 

The apprenticeships at SKAN are aimed at people who would like to complete a dual training program and serve as an entry into the professional world. In the three to four year apprenticeship period, the apprentices pass through different departments and areas and thus get an overview of the entire company. The exchange and cooperation between apprentices from different professions is strongly encouraged. For example, the apprentices organize occasions and events, work together as a project team and thus learn a high level of social and professional competence.

 

 

 

Overview

 

Realisation of the operation of isolators using the original HMI software and the original PLC programme and creation of a system simulation in SIMIT.

  • Probably an effort of approx. 200-300 hours (2-3 months) 
  • A workload of >30% (min. 20%) is desired so that the project is completed by the start of 2025

 

 

Responsibilies

 

 

Realisation of the operation of isolators using the original HMI software and the original PLC programme. This requires minor modifications to the two programmes and the creation of a simulation of the system in SIMIT. This simulation is realised by creating value simulations that are partially interdependent. There are already examples of this simulation for a training project, which can be viewed at any time. 

 

 

 

Hardskills

 

  • HMI / Visualisation -Zenon Version >8.10 (copa data)
  • PLC simulation - PLCSim Advanced (Siemens)
  • Plant simulation - SIMIT Player (Siemens)

 

 

Softskills

 

  • Good communication skills - teamwork with Academy and Automation requires regular exchange
  • Structured approach - very clear documentation and a coordinated approach (with Automation) to adjustments are important for future adjustments
