Driving production flow and virtual commissioning with Plant Simulation & Process Simulate

Using the digital twin, throughput can be increased by 15% and efficiency improved by 10–20%, all while reducing costs. KS Industry Solutions enables Siemens clients to achieve this transformation through Siemens Xcelerator-powered digital solutions. Read more.

Robot Center: Unifying Robotics Engineering in Process Simulate

In today’s highly automated manufacturing environment, industrial robots are at the heart of production. From material handling to assembly and welding, their roles are expanding – and so is the complexity of managing them. With Process Simulate, engineers have long had the ability to program, simulate, and validate robot operations in a digital twin. But as robotic cells become more advanced and multi-functional, the need for a more structured and accessible way to manage robot data has become clear. Explore how Robot Center provides enhanced clarity, structure, and efficiency to your engineering workflow.

AI Copilot: Accelerating Robotic Programming from Analysis to Commissioning

Explore how Process Simulate AI Copilot integrates AI directly into robotic programming workflows. Instead of navigating menus, building collision pairs, or deciphering error logs, engineers can simply ask — and get precise, actionable answers. The article shows how AI Copilot inventories robots, assigns tools, generates collision pairs, and summarizes operations with color-coded visualization. It also covers automated reachability checks that flag problematic targets early, and intelligent diagnostics that explain download failures and recommend fixes. By removing repetitive tasks and exposing risks sooner, Process Simulate AI Copilot helps teams validate faster, optimize cycle time, and deliver production-ready robotic cells with confidence.

Igniting the industrial AI future: Roland Busch at CES 2026 introducing Digital Twin Composer

At CES 2026, Siemens CEO Roland Busch introduced Digital Twin Composer, a new way for companies to design, simulate and optimize factories and operations digitally before they ever break ground. Built on the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio, it brings software from the Tecnomatix portfolio among other solutions, to improve material flow, validate automation and boost performance long before commissioning.
Busch also spotlighted the expansion of our partnership with NVIDIA, combining Siemens’ industrial expertise with accelerated AI to create smarter, more predictive digital twins. And the results are already tangible: PepsiCo is using Digital Twin Composer to modernize manufacturing and warehouse operations, cutting capital costs and identifying issues early in the virtual world, before they become real.

From Static Plans to Dynamic Production: How Brose Drives Efficiency with Plant Simulation [video]

Shaping the Future of Aerospace & Defense: Human-Centric Design at Northrop Grumman 

Few industries move faster, or demand more precision, than aerospace and defense. Designs can change overnight, compliance requirements tighten without warning, and mission needs evolve at a relentless pace. That’s why Northrop Grumman has turned to Siemens Process Simulate Human software, brought to life inside the HIVE (Highly Immersive Virtual Environment). Together, these digital tools give engineers the ability to collaborate globally in real time while simulating human interactions with complex systems before they’re ever built. Hear from Northrop Grumman’s Systems Engineer, Sibo Chou, to explore how the aerospace and defense leader combines Siemens Process Simulate Human with motion capture technology to bring a human touch to the design to aircraft assembly process.
