Nvidia and Siemens have expanded their partnership to accelerate AI adoption in manufacturing, aiming to boost efficiency and enable smart factory development.

Siemens and NVIDIA have expanded their collaboration to accelerate the adoption of industrial AI and digitalisation, thereby advancing the development of the future factory. The cooperation brings together Siemens’ industrial automation experience with NVIDIA’s AI and fast computing technologies.

Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA, stated, “Modern manufacturers face mounting pressure to boost efficiency, enhance quality, and adapt swiftly to changing market demands. Our partnership with Siemens is bringing NVIDIA AI and accelerated computing to the world’s leading enterprises and opening new opportunities for the next wave of industrial AI.”

Roland Busch, president and CEO of Siemens AG, commented, “AI is fundamentally transforming manufacturing and infrastructure. Over the last three years, we’ve worked closely to merge AI models and high-performance computing with industrial data and domain know-how. Together, Siemens and NVIDIA are now empowering companies across every industry to unlock the scaled impact of AI in the physical world.”

Siemens Xcelerator and NVIDIA Omniverse™ joined together in 2022 to create an industrial metaverse. It now encompasses work on generative AI, industrial AI, and robotics.

Siemens integrates NVIDIA technology throughout the Xcelerator platform. The Teamcenter Digital Reality Viewer integrates real-time ray tracing into product lifecycle management, enabling businesses to visualise and interact with photorealistic digital twins.

This technology is used by HD Hyundai to develop vessels driven by hydrogen and ammonia, managing millions of components in real time and lowering design iteration time from days to hours. BMW Group and Siemens used Simcenter Star-CCM+ software with NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs and CUDA-X™ libraries to deliver 30x faster transient aerodynamics simulations.

Siemens has developed NVIDIA GPU-certified industrial PCs, which offer 24/7 industrial computing and provide a 25x acceleration in AI workloads such as robotics, inspection, and predictive maintenance.

Siemens’ Industrial Copilot for Operations utilises NVIDIA NeMo™ microservices and NVIDIA RTX PRO™ 6000 Blackwell GPUs to provide real-time AI support and reduce reactive maintenance time by 30%. The companies are also using NVIDIA BlueField® DPUs to give AI-powered cybersecurity to operational technology systems, increasing visibility and protection.

The expanded alliance seeks to facilitate the rapid and efficient deployment of AI technologies in industrial environments.
