SIEMENS AG
"Technology with purpose."
German industrial conglomerate founded 1847; Digital Industries division makes SINUMERIK CNC, SIMATIC PLCs, and robot motion control for factory automation.
Siemens AG is a German multinational technology conglomerate founded in 1847 by Werner von Siemens and Johann Georg Halske in Berlin, with corporate headquarters at Werner-von-Siemens-Straße 1, 80333 Munich, Germany. In the context of industrial automation and robotics, the relevant division is Digital Industries (DI), which provides automation systems, software, and control technology for discrete and process manufacturing. Digital Industries generated approximately EUR 4.4–4.6 billion in quarterly revenue during fiscal 2024.
Core product families in factory automation include SINUMERIK CNC systems and SIMATIC programmable logic controllers. The SINUMERIK ONE is the first digital-native CNC controller; it integrates a SIMATIC S7-1500F safety PLC, supports virtual commissioning via digital twin, and connects to the Totally Integrated Automation (TIA) Portal for unified engineering. For robotics, SINUMERIK Run MyRobot enables direct integration of robot kinematics into the CNC motion control layer using SINAMICS drives and SIMOTICS motors.
The SINUMERIK Machine Tool Robot (MTR) is described as the world's most precise machining robot, combining a dedicated drive concept with SINUMERIK motion control to achieve sub-millimeter machining accuracy with a robotic arm. The SIMATIC S7-1500 series PLCs serve as the primary control platform for automated manufacturing cells and robotic workcells. Siemens holds an estimated 20–30% share of the global industrial PLC market, making it one of the top three alongside Rockwell Automation and Schneider Electric.
The company also provides simulation and digital twin software through its Tecnomatix and NX product families. Siemens employs more than 300,000 people globally and serves customers across automotive, electronics, food and beverage, aerospace, machine tool, and other discrete and process manufacturing sectors.
