Ahead of the SPS 2024 trade show, Siemens launches Simatic industrial PCs with NVIDIA GPUs and extends its Industrial Operations X offering to run AI next to the machine, without coding skills.

What changes

New range of NVIDIA-certified Simatic industrial PCs, including the Simatic IPC BX-35A on Jetson Orin NX.
Siemens estimates roughly 25-fold faster AI execution on the shop floor.
No-code tools to deploy quality inspection, robotic picking or predictive maintenance.
An Industrial Copilot for Operations runs fully on-site with NVIDIA NIM microservices.

### What changes On 11 November 2024, ahead of the SPS show in Nuremberg, Siemens announces a range of **industrial PCs (IPCs) with NVIDIA GPUs** and extends its **Industrial Operations X** portfolio. The goal: run heavy AI models directly on the shop floor, on ruggedized hardware, rather than in the cloud. ### Key facts - NVIDIA-certified devices: Simatic IPC BX-35A (embedded, fanless, Jetson Orin NX), RW-545A, RS-828A and BX-59A. - AI execution about **25 times faster**, according to a Siemens estimate. - GPU-accelerated AI Inference Server (NVIDIA Triton) to deploy models without coding. - Ready-to-use applications such as Simatic Robot Pick AI for piece picking. - Industrial Copilot for Operations running fully on-site on NVIDIA NIM microservices. ### Why it matters For automation, the boundary between industrial IT and AI compute moves to the field: quality vision, robotics and predictive maintenance become building blocks OT teams can deploy without data scientists. Latency, data sovereignty and production availability argue for this local compute. ### Takeaway First hardware building block of the Siemens–NVIDIA partnership started in 2022, which leads in 2026 to the "Industrial AI Operating System".
