The strategic partnership allows Siemens to offer a differentiated price-aware natively integrated design solution with system owned capabilities that embed intelligence to create a design-to-source digital thread
Siemens to extend its design-to-source intelligence capabilities beyond electronics to standard and custom mechanical parts
The partnership is accompanied by a minority investment into Xometry of approximately $50 million
Siemens has entered into a strategic partnership with Xometry, the global, AI-native marketplace connecting buyers and suppliers of custom manufacturing. The partnership will allow Siemens to embed proprietary manufacturability, pricing, sourcing and lifecycle intelligence directly into the design digital thread, natively within Siemens Xcelerator.
This partnership builds on Siemens’ broader supply chain intelligence vision, where Siemens’ Supplyframe brings deep design-to-source intelligence across electronic components and Xometry extends that intelligence into standard and custom mechanical parts through its digital marketplace business and Thomas, Xometry’s extensive North American industrial sourcing network.
In addition to the integration within Siemens’ Designcenter™ software, the partnership includes integration of Thomas, Xometry’s North American industrial sourcing network, with Siemens’ Supplyframe to bring deep design-to-source intelligence for both electronic and mechanical components to completely source the Bill of Materials (BOM) for Siemens’ customers.
The partnership is accompanied by a minority investment into Xometry of approximately $50 million1, reflecting Siemens’ conviction that AI-powered execution intelligence will be a defining source of differentiation in the next generation of industrial software. By tightly integrating design, pricing, sourcing insights and production insights across the digital thread, Siemens and Xometry are creating capabilities that neither company could deliver independently.
"Industrial competitiveness is defined by how fast and how confidently companies can turn digital ideas into physical reality,” said Tony Hemmelgarn, president and CEO, Siemens Digital Industries Software. “By infusing Siemens’ comprehensive digital twin expertise and industrial AI innovation with large-scale, AI-driven manufacturing intelligence, we’re breaking down the boundary between design and production for our customers. Our partnership with Xometry enables us to leverage AI to deliver the intelligence captured from millions of manufactured custom parts directly into the design process, empowering designers to work smarter, faster, and with greater impact.”
“Xometry and Siemens share a common opportunity: embed AI directly into the design digital thread, putting manufacturability, pricing, sourcing and execution intelligence in front of engineers at the instant design decisions are made,” said Randy Altschuler, co-founder and CEO, Xometry. “Xometry has built and trained its AI-native platform on the real-world complexities of manufacturing, including millions of part files, actual manufacturer feedback and production outcomes at global scale. This partnership enables us to deliver this intelligence to engineers inside the design systems and workflows where manufacturing decisions are made. When that intelligence is embedded inside the world's leading industrial software, everyone wins.”
Xometry has built its platform on millions of part files, design feedback from real world manufacturers and production outcomes across a global supplier network of more than 5,000 active suppliers. Its models are built and refined on real-world feedback to provide design for manufacturing (DFM) AI and the Xometry Instant Quoting Engine® (IQE) outputs that deliver part price and quality.
Unlike other integrations that require separate logins, Siemens’ customers will have a unique deep, native integration workflow that will provide access to real-time feedback on design feasibility, manufacturing options, pricing and lead times directly within their existing design and lifecycle workflows. As designs progress, the collaboration extends beyond design into execution visibility, allowing teams to move from digital intent to physical production with fewer handoffs and greater transparency.
The partnership also supports Siemens’ strategy to broaden access to industrial technology across companies of all sizes. By combining Siemens’ enterprise-grade software and global go-to-market reach with Xometry’s high frequency, execution-driven manufacturing workflows, the collaboration opens new pathways to engage small and medium-sized manufacturers while maintaining the rigor, security, and scalability required by the world’s largest industrial organizations.
