Siemens and NVIDIA have expanded their partnership to develop industrial AI solutions, aiming to bring AI-driven innovation to various industries.

Under the agreement, NVIDIA will provide AI infrastructure, simulation libraries, models, frameworks, and blueprints to support the development of industrial AI solutions. Siemens will contribute hundreds of industrial AI experts and leading hardware and software.

The companies plan to build AI-accelerated industrial solutions across the full lifecycle of products and production, enabling faster innovation, continuous optimisation, and more resilient manufacturing.

Siemens’ Electronics Factory in Erlangen, Germany, will be the first blueprint for fully AI-driven, adaptive manufacturing sites globally. The facility will use an “AI Brain” powered by software-defined automation and industrial operations software, combined with NVIDIA Omniverse libraries and AI infrastructure.

The partnership aims to scale these capabilities across key verticals and several customers are already evaluating some of the capabilities, including Foxconn, HD Hyundai, KION Group, and PepsiCo.

Siemens will complete GPU acceleration across its entire simulation portfolio and expand support for NVIDIA CUDA-X libraries and AI physics models, enabling customers to run larger, more accurate simulations faster. The companies will also advance toward generative simulation by using NVIDIA PhysicsNeMo and open models to provide autonomous digital twins that deliver real-time engineering design and autonomous optimisation.

The partnership will also accelerate the AI revolution by applying industrial AI operating logic to semiconductors and AI factories. Siemens will integrate NVIDIA CUDA-X libraries, PhysicsNeMo, and GPU acceleration across its electronic design automation (EDA) portfolio to target 2-10x speed-ups in key workflows.
