Accelerating production from weeks to days: how GKN Aerospace Engine Systems soars to new heights with Process Simulate

January 28, 2026

Aerospace manufacturing leaves zero room for error. Discover how GKN Aerospace Engine Systems accelerates production from weeks to days using Siemens Process Simulate and a fully connected digital manufacturing workflow. As a global manufacturer of critical components for aviation, space, and defense, GKN Aerospace Engine Systems supports industry leaders like Rolls-Royce, Pratt & Whitney, and GE. But producing these parts isn’t simple, tight tolerances, extreme complexity, and nonstop throughput demands leave no margin for error. By shifting robotic programming and validation into a connected digital environment, GKN Aerospace Engineer Systems programs earlier, works safer, and moves faster, cutting lead times from weeks to days while keeping production running. Hear from Andreas Rudqvist, System Owner Robot Simulation & OLP, on how digital manufacturing transforms complexity into a competitive advantage.

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

January 7, 2026

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.

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

December 18, 2025

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.
