Finally, machine builders need integrated tools that can join automation and quality into the products with process efficiency and differentiate themselves from the competition.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Smarter software solutions support machine design and manufacturing using Advanced Machine Engineering (AME) \u2013 a digitally enabled approach to drive the creation of next-generation machines. Additionally, it delivers a cloud-based, digital thread that empowers companies to develop complex machines quickly, with lower development costs, leading to decreased production and operational costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It combines the digital twin with the mechanical, electrical, electronics and software engineering disciplines into a single source of truth \u2014 assisting engineering silos and streamlining the communication necessary for advanced machine design. The result: companies better manage their projects to connect complexity to provide profitable machines \u2014 a competitive advantage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cloud is essential to realizing&nbsp;<em>advanced machine<\/em>&nbsp;engineering\u2019s advantages that build smarter machines faster. The cloud promotes collaboration, aligning many engineering disciplines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cloud-based solutions help the mechanical, electrical, automation and software disciplines to merge under one integrated space. Also, it is more accessible and visible to each discipline\u2019s work stream, maximizing data reuse and supporting an integrated change process that ensures a standard delivery process while adapting to evolving best practices quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineering.com\/story\/cloud-based-advanced-machine-engineering\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Rahul\u2019s article<\/a> to learn more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Xcelerator, the comprehensive and integrated portfolio of software and services from Siemens Digital Industries Software, helps companies of all sizes create and leverage a comprehensive digital twin that provides organizations with new insights, opportunities and levels of automation to drive innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information on Siemens Digital Industries Software products and services, visit&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sw.siemens.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">siemens.com\/software<\/a>&nbsp;or follow us on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/siemens\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LinkedIn<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Siemens\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Twitter<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/siemensusa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Facebook<\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/siemens\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram<\/a>.
