Siemens showcases the future of AI-era manufacturing at NVIDIA GTC

At NVIDIA GTC in Washington, D.C., Siemens and NVIDIA demonstrated a new technology stack currently in development for the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio. This live demo showed how engineers will soon be able to rapidly design, optimize, and manage the most advanced and accurate digital twins for future factories. By harnessing the integration between Siemens Xcelerator and NVIDIA Omniverse technologies, the new solution supports the creation of a holistic, highly realistic digital twin that unifies 3D visualization, simulation, and factory data into a single environment. This milestone marks a key step toward realizing the industrial metaverse — Siemens’ vision of seamlessly combining the real and digital worlds to unlock new levels of innovation, collaboration, and sustainable value creation for industry. 

Next-generation Ergonomics: Xsens & Siemens Process Simulate join forces to put motion capture and simulation in manufacturing 

In today’s manufacturing landscape, ergonomics isn’t just about comfort, it’s about productivity, safety, and efficiency. Observation and questionnaires only go so far. The integration of Xsens motion capture technology and Siemens Process Simulate software, you can now virtually analyze workstation design using authentic human movement data, leading to more informed decisions earlier in your design process.

What’s new in Optimize my plant 2509: Unlocking the Future of Digital Manufacturing

With each release, Optimize my plant (OMP) evolves to provide engineers and manufacturers with more powerful tools for simulation, integration, and decision support.

The new version 2509 introduces enhancements in simulation, connectivity, and visualization that improve precision, accelerate workflows, and enable deeper insights into production performance.

Smarter Workstations, Stronger Operations: Siemens Mendix and Process Simulate in Action [VIDEO]

Manufacturers everywhere face the same pressure: deliver flawless quality, end-to-end traceability, and agility — while empowering the people who make it all happen. The question is simple, but the answer is not: how do you achieve operational excellence without overwhelming operators or creating barriers with complex technologies? 

Operators are expected to manage machines, configure tools, record data, and double-check every step. These tasks are critical but often repetitive and time-consuming. Imagine if the system could take care of them automatically—guaranteeing right-first-time quality while freeing operators to focus on higher-value work. That’s exactly what Siemens is delivering with intelligent workstations powered by Siemens Mendix and Process Simulate.

Balancing Sustainability and Productivity Through The Digital Twin in the Food and Beverage Industry

The food and beverage industry is under constant pressure to maintain quality, keep cost under control, respond quickly to market demand all while meeting sustainability goals. 

It’s a complex puzzle and Optimize my plant helps manufacturers navigate this complexity. By creating a live digital twin of operations, it allows teams to simulate different scenarios, compare outcomes, and make smarter decisions to predict and optimize factory operations to reach the extra percentage of efficiency every shift.

Bridging Design and Simulation: Seamless Kinematics Exchange Between NX and Process Simulate

In advanced manufacturing, every second counts – and even small disconnects between design and simulation can lead to delays, rework, and inefficiencies. When engineers develop complex equipment with moving parts – like industrial robots or custom machinery – it’s not just the geometry that matters. The kinematics – how components move and interact – must also be precisely defined and seamlessly integrated into the workflow.

Simulation without limits: bringing AI, Digital Twin, and Copilots to the Factory Floor 

In a recent webinar hosted by leading industry publication Automation World, Uli Rossgoderer, Senior Director of Portfolio Development for the Tecnomatix portfolio, joined the discussion to discuss how manufacturing simulation technologies are becoming more intelligent, accessible, and impactful across the manufacturing floor. Watch the discussion and see how AI-powered copilots, low-code interfaces, and seamless connectivity to real production data is helping empower the users of advanced manufacturing simulation.

Bridging the Real and Digital: How Optimize My Plant Integrates with Insights Hub to Unlock Smart Manufacturing

At this year’s Plant Simulation Users Conference during Realize Live 2025 in Amsterdam, Siemens presented a key topic at the heart of digital transformation: Integration of Optimize my plant with Insights Hub: Connecting the Real and Digital World.

In today’s fast-moving industrial landscape, creating a digital twin is only the first step. The real value comes from calibrating that twin so it mirrors real-world performance and then using it to support everyday decisions. This blog recaps the key insights from the session and explores how this integration drives operational transparency, efficiency, and sustainability across the shop floor.
