- Intuitive motion control enables a more flexible production and counteracts the shortage of skilled workers
- New Simatic Motion Interpreter software: Program motion sequences with no specialized knowledge
- New Sinamics drive generation completes Siemens’ comprehensive motion concept
Siemens is introducing the
latest version of the Totally Integrated Automation (TIA) portal at the SPS
trade show in Nuremberg. With version 19 of the engineering framework, motion
control is easier than ever. It’s intuitive for non-experts and new users, and
this is crucial for industrial companies. To flexibly manage an ever-increasing
variety of products and cope with the shortage of skilled workers, more
processes need to be automated – and this means that machines and systems and
the resulting demands on motion control and automation technology are becoming
increasingly complex.

- Total U.S. investments to support high-growth
markets like data centers, batteries, semiconductors, EV charging and rail transportation
- New
US$150 million investment in Dallas-Fort Worth production of critical electrical infrastructure
equipment to help power U.S. data centers and accelerate adoption of
artificial intelligence (AI)
- Already announced: US$220 million rail
manufacturing plant to bolster U.S. infrastructure and mobility
- All investments to create a total of around 1,700
jobs in the U.S.
- Part of €2 billion global investment strategy to boost growth, innovation and
resilience
Today, Siemens announced an
investment of US$150 million in a new high-tech manufacturing plant in
Dallas-Fort Worth to help power American data centers and critical
infrastructure. This plant will produce state-of-the-art reliable and efficient
electrical equipment. It will enable accelerated growth of U.S. data centers, which
is being driven by the exponential adoption of generative AI. It will also ensure
secure operation of critical infrastructure. This investment specifically
supports long-term customers in the data center space, where demand is expected
to grow by around ten percent annually through 2030.
- Norwegian distribution system operator, Elvia, to use Siemens’ SaaS product, LV Insights® X, to automate processes and handle grid complexity in the LV grid
- LV Insights® X, part of the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio, has been operational at Elvia in conjunction with Spectrum Power TM 7 ADMS since October 2023
- Partnership will enable future-proof distribution grid management in Norway, one step further on the journey towards autonomous grids
Siemens’ software has been deployed to Norwegian distribution system operator (DSO) Elvia, with the goal to future-proof its distribution grid management. Siemens’ low voltage software, LV Insights® X, and advanced distribution management system, Spectrum PowerTM 7 ADMS, are now operational and will provide Elvia with relevant insights to flexibly manage its grid and increase capacity fast. With LV Insights® X, Elvia is able to leverage existing data and create a digital twin to monitor the status of the grid, resulting in optimized outage management. This leads to cost-savings, improved grid stability and ultimately, customer satisfaction.
- Ricoh and Siemens start collaboration to develop the solution for aluminum Binder Jetting Technology for mass production
- As the first step of the collaboration, Ricoh has implemented Siemens’ Additive Manufacturing Network to build a full digital process to optimize its internal process and machine management for aluminum binder jetting technology – from print job preparation, through manufacture, to delivery of components
- Ricoh also aims to leverage the Additive Manufacturing Network capabilities to digitally transform its process service provision to a wide spectrum of industrial additive manufacturing focused customers
Siemens Digital Industries Software has today announced that Ricoh have begun
a collaboration to realize the industrial aluminum Binder Jetting (BJT)
solution for mass production. Ricoh is leveraging Siemens’ Additive
Manufacturing Network capabilities to maximize the efficiency of the process
and to achieve the scale required to take advantage of BJT in an industrial
setting.
- Companies introduce Siemens
Industrial Copilot, a generative AI-powered assistant, designed to enhance
human-machine collaboration and boost productivity.
- Companies will work together to
build additional copilots for manufacturing, infrastructure, transportation,
and healthcare industries.
- Leading automotive supplier,
Schaeffler AG, is an early adopter of Siemens Industrial Copilot.
- In addition, the Siemens Teamcenter

manufacturing. In addition, the launch of the integration between Siemens
Teamcenter software for product lifecycle management and Microsoft Teams will
further pave the way to enabling the industrial metaverse. It will simplify
virtual collaboration of design engineers, frontline workers, and other teams
across business functions.
- Opportunities from European Unitary Patent,
above all, in digital technologies
- Offerings on Siemens Xcelerator platform
can be protected much more effectively with European Unitary Patent
Siemens is
at the forefront of unitary patent applications. The European Unitary Patent – together
with the associated Unified Patent Court (UPC) – started in June 2023.
Since then, the European Patent Office has received more than 12,000
applications for the new European Unitary Patent – most of these applications
came from Siemens.
