Siemens, NVIDIA deepen partnership to advance AI-driven autonomous factories
NVDA•Siemens and NVIDIA are expanding their partnership with AI manufacturing applications at Siemens’ Erlangen plant; virtual production ramp-ups could reduce engineering effort by up to 85%, while AI agent-based planning could cut costs by up to 20%.
1. AI manufacturing plans
The partners are applying AI manufacturing technologies at Siemens’ Erlangen plant as a blueprint for autonomous factories. Fully virtual production ramp-ups can reduce engineering effort by up to 85%, while AI agent-based production planning could enable cost savings of up to 20%.
2. Fully AI-powered sites
At CES in Las Vegas in January 2026, Siemens and NVIDIA announced plans for what they described as the world’s first fully AI-powered manufacturing sites.
