Performance for your production lines
The question of how efficiently machines and systems can be monitored and controlled significantly depends on whether access to relevant data is guaranteed. This is precisely what our apps do: optimize the performance of your production lines around the world in real time. We have the right apps for every challenge in a wide range of application areas.
Edge and Cloud apps
and more to come
The ideal supplement to your machines and plants. Get started now!
Depending on requirements and application, the apps are available for MindSphere or Siemens Industrial Edge. Some apps can already be used for both systems. Optionally, specially developed client apps for smartdevices facilitate access to your systems.
IoT gateway
Edge device
Cloud apps
with global access to dataCloud apps
MindSphere apps for production machines and plants offer advanced insights and analytics into machines and processes independent of their location. You can increase productivity, optimize machine service, and collaborate with other factories: Benefit from global data access to implement data-driven business models for OEMs and plant operators. And the best part: You don’t need to worry about performance, as the cloud infrastructure makes resources available on demand.
Edge apps
for local data processingclose to machines
Edge apps
When it comes to real-time processing of high-frequency data, the Siemens Industrial Edge system reveals its full potential. Interact with your machines, manage your whole inventory, or run complex models to monitor production and processes close to the system. As the apps run on a platform architecture close or at the machines, the data stays within your production floor.
Mobile apps
for fast reactionsand easy interaction
Mobile apps
To properly use the data, you first have to be able to access it. That’s why we’ve introduced mobile client apps that connect to a higher-level processing system, like MindSphere or Siemens Industrial Edge, allowing you to convert your smart device into a machine notification center or mobile performance monitor. Benefit from all the onboard features of your smartphone.
Performance Insight
Site-independent analysis of machine and plant performance
Energy Manager
Energy transparency and efficiency for plants and processes
The Energy Manager application records the energy consumption of your machines and plants distributed throughout the world. In this way, you not only achieve ISO 50001-conformant energy transparency, but you can also optimize your energy efficiency by means of a comprehensive analysis of energy costs and consumers. Access your data globally via the MindSphere Cloud – or on your local server via iOS or Android!
Notifier
Fast notification on mobile devices
Convert your smartphone into a news ticker for your production: With Notifier, you are automatically notified of important messages from your plant – worldwide, via the cloud-based app or locally via your own Wi-Fi network for even faster response times. Use the feedback function to coordinate actions.
Collaboration Board
The digitalized solution for cause analysis
Collaboration Board helps with the documentation and resolving of problems in production by applying the methods of the Ishikawa or 5 Why cause analysis. It allows the exchange of information between various factories and helps operators and maintenance managers to increase the service life of machines and plants.

SAM – the Speech Assistant for Machines
Need the right information at the right time? Just say, “Hey SAM!”
It has never been easier to get information about your plant’s status. SAM – the Speech Assistant for Machines – collects data from different machine areas within its network and promptly answers when you say, “Hey SAM.” You can then ask the app for information about the machine’s functionality – SAM will optimize the request, analyze the data, and quickly respond.
Machine Monitor
Optimal service for the global machine park
Machine Insight
Increase transparency on machine condition
Identify issues, bottlenecks and improvement opportunities to increase machine availability and performance. Machine Insight gives you a convenient, hassle-free insight into machine states and machine diagnostics.
Anomaly Detection
Maximize added value through continuous monitoring and analysis
Anomaly Detection helps you to increase transparency and productivity across your organization. The app uses Artificial Intelligence to acquire comprehensive insights from your data of manufacturing and production processes.
Flow Creator
The visual display of workflows in data processing
With Flow Creator, tailored solutions can be created quite easily for data processing and connectivity: Structure your own workflows for local data processing. Your benefits: Only a few minutes of effort – and you will have a graphical user interface which supports pre-defined functions at a single stroke.
LiveTwin
Bring your Digital Twin of your machines to life
LiveTwin allows to easily deploy Virtual Sensors, Model Predictive Controls and more, reusing models built in 1D simulation tools as SIMCENTER Amesim or Matlab Simulink utilizing data from the PLCs as well as process parameters.
Inventory
Get a grip on your installed base
Use Inventory to scan device information and provide inventory information to other systems and tools and determine what action is needed to ensure device availability.
SIMATIC Automation Tool
Your tool for convenient commissioning and update of SIMATIC modules
With the SIMATIC Automation Tool, you ensure greater efficiency in device management. Access multiple SIMATIC components in parallel to update application code and firmware versions or retrieve diagnostic and service data from multiple devices.
Data Service
Store and structure data of connected machines
With Data Service for Industrial Edge, data from connected machines can be stored and structured. Via API interfaces, other apps on the edge device can also use the storage function and the configured machine data structure.
Industrial Information Hub
Control production and value-added processes thanks to a central interface
The Industrial Information Hub serves as a focal point and distributor for production data. Via the various apps and applications, the data is collected, stored in a structured manner, qualitatively processed, and forwarded to other apps and devices to streamline and synchronize your workflows.
