Siemens Unveils Innovations in Industrial Automation at Logimat

Siemens is showcasing its latest advancements in industrial automation and digitalization for the intralogistics sector at Logimat 2025. In response to global challenges such as labor shortages, sustainability demands, and demographic shifts, Siemens introduces cutting-edge solutions that enhance efficiency, adaptability, and sustainability in logistics operations.

Simatic Robot Pick AI Pro: AI-Powered Order Picking

A key highlight at the Siemens booth is Simatic Robot Pick AI Pro, a deep-learning vision software enabling model-free 3D robot picking. This AI-powered tool allows robots to handle unknown objects using adaptive vacuum multi-grippers, delivering precise gripping poses (6-DoF) in milliseconds, regardless of size, shape, or packaging.

This technology supports the automation of single-piece order picking, particularly in e-commerce, helping to address labor shortages in repetitive warehouse tasks.

Siemens Industrial Operations X: Advancing Software-Defined Automation

Simatic Robot Pick AI Pro is part of the Siemens Industrial Operations X portfolio within the Siemens Xcelerator ecosystem. This initiative integrates software-defined automation with data-driven industrial operations, making systems more adaptive, scalable, and efficient.

Key components include:

• Simatic AX – A modern development environment improving efficiency in physical and virtual control management.
• Virtual PLCs – Enabling greater flexibility by deploying control systems as software containers on industrial edge management platforms.
• Edge and Cloud Computing – Supporting real-time collaboration, optimization, and continuous system improvements.

Seamless Integration with Industrial Ecosystems

Robots equipped with Siemens AI vision software can autonomously identify and handle a variety of objects, increasing adaptability in dynamic logistics environments. The system integrates seamlessly with Totally Integrated Automation (TIA), ensuring real-time data flow across logistics processes.

Additionally, Siemens Xcelerator fosters an open ecosystem for collaboration with certified technology partners, such as:

• Zivid – Provider of industrial 3D cameras for enhanced object detection.
• Piab – Developer of vacuum tools for automated gripping solutions.

Siemens Industrial Copilot: AI-Powered Engineering Support

Siemens is also introducing the Siemens Industrial Copilot, an AI assistant designed to support automation engineers in:

• Code generation and debugging
• Fault diagnosis
• Complex machine engineering

Seamlessly integrated into the TIA Portal, the Industrial Copilot accelerates development processes, minimizes errors, and enables less-experienced engineers to apply their skills more effectively.

Conclusion

By combining AI-driven robotics, software-defined automation, and cloud-based collaboration, Siemens is setting a new standard for intelligent intralogistics. These innovations empower businesses to streamline operations, enhance flexibility, and drive sustainability—ensuring a future-proof approach to industrial automation.
