Empowering Automotive Parts Production Lines: Siemens Xcelerator Spark Accelerator Suzhou Successful

On June 20, 2025, the Siemens Xcelerator Spark Accelerator Suzhou event successfully highlighted advancements in digitalization and sustainability for automotive parts production. The event focused on automating and digitally transforming assembly lines, offering manufacturers insights through case studies, solution demonstrations, and on-site visits.

Key Takeaways from the Event

Comprehensive Digitalization from Simulation to Carbon Traceability

Attendees experienced Siemens' digital solutions firsthand at the Siemens Electrical Products Suzhou Digitalization Showroom. A core offering is the ability for companies to build a digital twin using Siemens' simulation and virtual commissioning solutions. This allows for the validation and optimization of entire factories, logistics systems, robotic lines, and key production equipment.

For example, virtual commissioning for automotive engine assembly workstations enables integrated testing of robot programming, electrical programming, and mechanical design. This significantly reduces commissioning risks, familiarizes operators with processes, allows for "what-if" scenario rehearsals, and helps in defining fault levels and resolution plans in advance.

To address the complexities of the automotive industry, Siemens provides the SICAR toolbox, which promotes the standardization of machines and production lines for rapid deployment and flexible expansion. Furthermore, the Siemens X-Carbon Trace solution accurately quantifies carbon emissions throughout the manufacturing process, ensuring secure and reliable exchange of product-related carbon data within the supply chain. This solution is particularly valuable in sectors like power batteries and automotive side panels, facilitating precise carbon footprint calculation and full-process traceability to help achieve sustainability goals.

Collaborative Innovation with Edge Computing

Siemens Industrial Edge Computing plays a crucial role on the production floor by integrating IT capabilities at the shop floor level. This provides more flexible and scalable software and data services, continuously unlocking digital transformation potential.

Through ecosystem partnerships: 

Guangzhou Shengyuancheng Technology collaborated with Siemens Industrial Edge to develop a production line MES (Manufacturing Execution System) solution designed for high-speed automated flexible production lines. This plug-and-play solution offers high-speed data interaction at workstations (under 300 milliseconds response time for single tasks) and provides standardized function modules and a low-code environment. Users can easily manage traceability, quality control, and work orders via intuitive drag-and-drop interfaces.

Hangzhou Deep Vision Technology partnered with Siemens Industrial Edge to deliver an intelligent vision inspection solution. This system combines robotic arms with AI large models to achieve 0°–360° all-around imaging, eliminating blind spots. The AI models' strong generalization capabilities allow the system to quickly switch between inspecting different types and materials of workpieces without retraining, reducing line changeover times from hours to minutes and significantly improving production flexibility and inspection efficiency.

Siemens Xcelerator: A Platform for Integrated Solutions

The Siemens Xcelerator online platform currently offers over 300 easily integrated digital and low-carbon solutions. These solutions are characterized by their modularity, scalability, and flexibility, enabling seamless collaboration across diverse industrial scenarios and delivering measurable business value.

Moving forward, Siemens is committed to driving industrial development through its dual focus on digitalization and decarbonization. The company aims to empower entire value chains through technological innovation and, in collaboration with global partners, build an open, collaborative ecosystem to co-create a more sustainable future.
