Meet at the Machine

Where machine builders, technology partners, and Siemens come together to accelerate innovation across the machine tool industry and help manufacturers achieve productivity faster.

The future of machining requires more than technology

Meet at the Machine is an initiative designed to bring together machine tool builders, advanced CAM software, Digital Twins and CNC automation technologies to accelerate innovation across the machine tool industry and help manufacturers achieve productivity faster. Siemens and machine builders co- create integrated machining solutions that deliver measurable value for the OEM and manufacturers.

By bringing together software, automation, and machine expertise, we accelerate innovation beyond standalone products and address real manufacturing challenges. The result is a continuous roadmap of solutions designed to improve productivity, quality, performance, and speed to value, helping manufacturers achieve better outcomes.

Drive productivity through integrated innovation

Deliver differentiated machine value

Combine machine expertise with software and CNC automation to create integrated solutions that help machine builders differentiate their offerings and deliver greater customer value.

Achieve productivity faster

Enable manufacturers to prepare, program, simulate, and validate production earlier, reducing ramp-up time and accelerating the path to productive machining.

Advance machining through collaboration

Bring together machine builders, software, automation, and industry expertise to develop integrated solutions for evolving manufacturing challenges.

From vision to first results

Prepare for production before machine delivery

The first phase of the initiative focuses on helping manufacturers prepare for production before machine delivery. Programming, simulation, validation, and training can begin while a machine is still being built, reducing ramp-up time and accelerating the path to productive machining.

Connect the technologies that make it possible

The comprehensive Digital Twin brings together Siemens CAM, a validated postprocessor, the digital representation of the machine, and the Digital CNC powered by SINUMERIK. This connected environment enables manufacturers to prepare, validate, train and optimize production workflows before the physical machine arrives.
