WinCC modernization · Your specialist

Your expert for modernizing your WinCC visualization.

From WinCC flexible and WinCC Classic to WinCC Unified: I modernize existing projects safely and without starting from scratch – and I know every step from practice. I accompany, support and train you throughout the entire migration.

Why with me

Modernization in the best hands

Modernizing a visualization means preserving knowledge grown over years while making it future-proof. That is exactly where I am the right partner.

From WinCC flexible to Unified

I modernize across all generations – WinCC flexible, WinCC Classic (V7) and WinCC Comfort/Advanced up to SIMATIC WinCC Unified.

Every step under control

Analysis, concept, migration, adaptation, test and commissioning: I know the whole path from years of project practice – not from theory.

Where standard tools stop

Automatic converters only get you part of the way. The decisive manual adaptations before and after are precisely my strength.

Guidance, support & training

I support you from the first consultation through implementation to ongoing support – and train your team on the new environment.

The path

From the legacy project to the Unified visualization

Keep what works, replace what is outdated – plannable and without risk to your running operation.

01

WinCC flexible / WinCC Classic

Your existing visualization, grown over years – the valuable foundation.

02

Modernization

Analysis, migration and targeted adaptation – step by step, without losing your process know-how.

03

WinCC Unified

Future-proof visualization on SIMATIC HMI Unified Panels and Unified PC.

My guidance

How I guide you – step by step

From the first analysis to training your team: a clear process in which you are never alone.

01

Analysis & modernization check

Assessment of your project and a realistic estimate of scope, effort and risks.

02

Concept & planning

Migration strategy, schedule and clear operating and design requirements for the new WinCC Unified interface.

03

Migration of project content

Carrying over screens, tags, alarms, archives and scripts – efficiently with proven tools.

04

Adaptation & optimization

Manual rework, optimization of the user interface and implementation of new Unified functions.

05

Test & commissioning

Functional testing on Unified Panels, validation in the running process and guidance up to final acceptance.

06

Support & training

Onboarding of your team and reliable support beyond commissioning.

Scope

What is carried over during modernization

Your existing project content is not lost – it is carried over, adapted and optimized for WinCC Unified.

Screens & screen management

Screens, templates, pop-up and slide-in screens including structure and navigation.

Screen objects

Basic objects (text field, rectangle), elements (button, I/O field) and controls such as the alarm view.

Animations & dynamics

Animations and dynamic behaviour on the supported objects.

Scripts & system functions

Selected system functions and scripts are carried over and adapted.

HMI tags

Carrying over the HMI tags and connecting to the controller.

Alarms & messages

HMI alarms including classes and texts.

Archives & trends

Archives and archive tags for historical data and trends.

Text & graphics lists

Multilingual text and graphics lists.

Faceplates

Reusable faceplates and their implementation.

I check the exact scope and the migratable elements individually for your project in the modernization check.

Tools & methods

Proven tools, used properly

For an efficient migration I use the official Siemens tools – including the TIA Portal add-in Data2Unified, the WinCC Unified Modernization Checker and the Smart Advisor. They speed up the transfer; the professional quality comes from the manual adaptation and optimization.

SIMATIC, WinCC, WinCC flexible, WinCC Unified, Data2Unified and TIA Portal are trademarks of Siemens AG. Lienhard Automation is an independent service provider, not a Siemens dealer.

Security

Protecting plants, systems and networks against cyber threats requires a holistic, modern IT security concept. I take these requirements into account in every modernization. More about our cybersecurity area.
