Siemens and NVIDIA expand partnership to accelerate AI capabilities in manufacturing
Siemens and NVIDIA announced an expansion of their partnership to accelerate the next era of industrial AI and digitalization and enable the factory of the future.
“Modern manufacturers
face mounting pressure to boost efficiency, enhance quality and adapt swiftly
to changing market demands,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. “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.”
“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,” said Roland Busch, president and CEO of
Siemens AG. “Together, Siemens and NVIDIA are now empowering companies across
every industry to unlock the scaled impact of AI in the physical world.”
The combination of
Siemens and NVIDIA technologies will empower industrial companies to leverage
comprehensive, AI-powered technologies for next-generation factory automation –
spanning every stage from product design to execution. This enables companies
to make more confident decisions using real-time, data-driven insights, enhance
operational efficiencies and improve collaboration.
Partnering to accelerate digital transformation of industry
In 2022, the companies
announced a partnership to bring the industrial metaverse to life by connecting
technologies from the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio to the NVIDIA Omniverse™
platform. The combination of Siemens’ software and industrial automation leadership
with NVIDIA’s cutting-edge AI and accelerated computing empowers organizations
across sectors to optimize performance, boost
productivity and meet
sustainability goals through digitalization. The partnership has since expanded
to include collaboration in generative AI, industrial AI and robotics.
Siemens integrates
NVIDIA technology throughout the Siemens Xcelerator platform. Announced earlier
this year, Teamcenter Digital Reality Viewer represents a significant leap
forward in product lifecycle management-based visualization, bringing real-time
ray-tracing capabilities directly into Teamcenter to enable companies to
seamlessly visualize and interact with photorealistic, physics-based digital
twins of their products, allowing for faster, more informed decisions.
HD Hyundai, one of the
world’s largest shipbuilders, could use this capability to visualize a
next-generation LNG vessel – managing millions of parts in real time while
cutting design iteration time from days to hours with generative AI.
By coupling NVIDIA
Blackwell GPUs with Siemens’ computational fluid dynamics software, Simcenter
Star-CCM+ customers can simulate and test products virtually with significantly
enhanced speed. For example, using Simcenter Star-CCM+ software accelerated by
NVIDIA Blackwell and NVIDIA CUDA-X™ libraries, BMW Group and Siemens achieved a
30x speedup for transient aerodynamics simulations of entire vehicle geometries
– accelerating the simulation of vehicle aerodynamics while reducing energy
consumption and costs.
Siemens and NVIDIA are
also redefining how factories operate. A new line of Siemens Industrial PCs,
certified for NVIDIA GPUs, drive powerful AI-supported industrial computing,
withstanding heat, dust and vibration, and allowing for 24/7 operation. They enable
complex industrial automation tasks – from AI-based robotics to quality
inspection and predictive maintenance – delivering a 25x acceleration in AI
execution.
Advanced AI agents will
work seamlessly across the Siemens Industrial Copilot portfolio, executing
entire AI-powered processes without human intervention. Siemens’ Industrial
Copilot for Operations brings generative AI to shopfloor operators and will be optimized
to run on premises with NVIDIA RTX PRO™ 6000 Blackwell Server Edition GPUs. The
Siemens Industrial Copilot leverages NVIDIA NeMo™ microservices and the NVIDIA
AI Blueprint for video search and summarization to deliver real-time,
AI-powered assistance for shopfloor operations, saving 30% of reactive
maintenance time.
To provide
manufacturers with 360-degree visibility into industrial systems and strengthen
cybersecurity operations, Siemens is also collaborating with NVIDIA to pioneer
a new class of operational technology cybersecurity by integrating NVIDIA
BlueField® DPUs, leveraging accelerated computing in pursuit of AI-driven
cybersecurity.
The expanded
partnership between Siemens and NVIDIA is poised to drive the next wave of
innovation in industrial manufacturing. With Siemens spearheading the
transformation of industries and NVIDIA accelerated computing, the companies
are enabling the deployment of AI solutions on the shopfloor with unprecedented
speed and efficiency.
