Schneider Electric Korea (CEO Jiwoong Kwon) participated in the 2026 Smart Factory & Automation Industry Exhibition (AW 2026) and showcased AI-based industrial automation technologies. The exhibition served as an opportunity for the company to strengthen its role as an energy technology partner.
Under the theme "Welcome to Industrial Automazing – Your Energy Technology Partner," the company showcased its global standard open platform strategy, which integrates complex industrial data into a single system and implements an operational environment based on prediction and optimization. The exhibition booth was designed in a storytelling style, organically linking software, AI, energy management, and automation technologies.
The exhibition showcased ▲AVEVA-based real-time data integration and analysis, ▲EAE (EcoStruxure Automation Expert) automation platform, ▲ETAP power digital twin solution, and ▲PME (EcoStruxure Power Monitoring Expert) power management solution. Power and automation hardware products were also unveiled, including ▲Lexium Servo motion control, ▲SM AirSeT eco-friendly high-voltage switchgear, and ▲EasyPact MVS DA1 DC switch disconnector.
During the exhibition, technology demonstrations were held under three themes: "AI-based data visualization and digital twins," "integrated industrial automation solutions and BESS solutions," and "smart energy and motor predictive maintenance." These demonstrations included real-time data analysis using AI and digital twins, flexible process control through integrated automation solutions, and IoT-based predictive maintenance technology for facility condition monitoring and downtime minimization.
Schneider Electric emphasizes a structure that integrates, analyzes, and visualizes data centered around the EcoStruxure open platform. It also supports a gradual digital transformation by designing it to be compatible with existing facilities. Furthermore, the company is strengthening its role as an energy technology partner by proposing a sustainability strategy that combines autonomous manufacturing, carbon emissions management, and energy efficiency optimization.
CEO Kwon Ji-woong stated, “We are supporting the transition of domestic manufacturers to autonomous manufacturing by integrating energy management, automation, and AI technologies, and the AW 2026 exhibition is a place to showcase our integrated solution strategy that creates real business value.”
