Unlocking agility in manufacturing simulation: an introduction to Process Simulate X Value Based Licensing

In the dynamic landscape of modern manufacturing, companies are constantly striving for greater agility and efficiency to remain competitive. However, organizations often face a common challenge when evaluating their software investments: balancing cost optimization with intentional use of specific capabilities. Investing in comprehensive software solutions shouldn’t mean paying for features that are only used occasionally. This dilemma frequently results in underutilization of advanced capabilities or hesitation to adopt them altogether, ultimately limiting innovation. Siemens addresses this challenge with Value Based Licensing (VBL) for Process Simulate X, an innovative approach that simplifies software access and consumption while enabling users to maximize value and scale with confidence in their manufacturing simulation operations.

Tecnomatix ranked as leader in Digital Twin software: G2 Spring 2026

We’re excited to share that Tecnomatix has once again been recognized by G2, the world’s leading software review platform, as a Leader in Process Simulation software for Spring 2026. Read more to hear from Tecnomatix users about the solution.

The rise of AI Factories: accelerating the design and operations of next-gen data centers

AI infrastructure is entering a new era, one where data centers are no longer just storing information, but actively producing intelligence. These data centers, also known as “AI factories,” introduce a new level of complexity, driven by three forces: the need to build faster, operate more efficiently under tight power constraints, and engineer and validate hardware that doesn’t yet exist. In this blog, we’ll break down the core challenges shaping AI factory development, the emerging metrics that will define success, and why traditional approaches are no longer enough. We’ll also explore how a new generation of tools, like Siemens’ Digital Twin Composer, helps teams design, build, and operate these facilities with greater speed, coordination, and confidence.

Optimize my plant: How Many AGVs Do You Really Need? 

Your AGV fleet is one of the biggest investments in your warehouse. Are you sizing it on data, or on gut feel? At LogiMAT 2026 in Stuttgart, we showcased Optimize my plant live, and the response from warehouse and intralogistics professionals confirmed what we see every day: critical decisions about fleet sizing, shift planning, and maintenance are still made without the full picture. That costs time, money, and delivery reliability.

Siemens Tecnomatix portfolio at Hannover Messe 2026: The Digital Factory, Live

Hannover Messe is where the future of industry is written. This year, Siemens used the world’s premier industrial stage to demonstrate something extraordinary: a fully connected, AI-powered digital enterprise and Siemens Tecnomatix portfolio, including Process Simulate and Plant Simulation is at the heart of it.

Siemens is not simply participating in the AI conversation; it is leading the Industrial AI revolution. With the breadth to deliver AI end-to-end across the full industrial lifecycle, Hannover Messe is the perfect opportunity to display how you’ll see this in action across industrial software, automation, electrification, and Industrial AI with the right ecosystem of partners to help manufacturers scale with confidence.

Realize LIVE 2026: Where Advanced Manufacturing Takes Shape with AI, Industrial Metaverse and more

The future of manufacturing is here and Realize LIVE 2026 is where that future comes into focus. This flagship digital transformation conference from Siemens is returning to North America and Europe with two high-impact events that bring together the people, technologies, and ideas shaping next-generation manufacturing.

This year, the spotlight is firmly on four powerful themes redefining industrial innovation: AI-powered manufacturing planning and simulation, cloud-enabled collaboration from planning through production, digital threads that connect the entire manufacturing lifecycle, and the accelerating movement to reshore manufacturing.

Engineering.com Spotlights PepsiCo’s Early Adoption of Siemens Digital Twin Composer

In the Engineering.com article, explore how PepsiCo is an early adopter, working with Siemens and NVIDIA to convert selected U.S. manufacturing and warehouse facilities into high‑fidelity 3D digital twins that simulate end‑to‑end plant operations and supply chains. As shifting demand, supply chain volatility, and cost pressures intensify across the CPG landscape, PepsiCo knew facilities built for another era had to evolve. Rather than tackling inefficiencies in silos, the company launched a digital-first, AI-driven transformation, placing Siemens Digital Twin Composer at the center of its manufacturing modernization strategy.
