To increase productivity, accelerate innovation and create new opportunities for economic growth, Europe’s industrial leaders are tapping NVIDIA CUDA-X and Omniverse libraries, as well as NVIDIA Cosmos and Nemotron open models, across the engineering and manufacturing lifecycle. 

Bringing those capabilities together on the factory floor, the NVIDIA Factory Operations Blueprint (FOX) is now available in early access on GitHub, providing a path for developers to build and deploy always-on factory manager agents that coordinate work across machines, and specialist agents focused on use cases such as visual inspection, root cause analysis, report generation and fleet management.

These agents can connect to frontier models, including NVIDIA Cosmos and Nemotron, and foundational knowledge including computer-aided design, product lifecycle management, simulation software, and IT and operational technology systems. 

Building on the FOX blueprint enables the ecosystem to build industrial agents that monitor factory operations in real time, correlate visual findings and machine logs to investigate problems, and coordinate responses. With Cosmos in-context learning, these agents can adapt using examples and documentation, without fine-tuning.

Siemens is integrating agents built using FOX into Intelligence Center X, its agentic enterprise system, to help identify root causes and coordinate factory operations, for estimated cost savings of 20%. Siemens’ Process Preparation X agents use NVIDIA Cosmos Data Factory tools and skills to generate defect images for circuit-board inspection. At its Erlangen electronics factory, Siemens used this approach to reduce calibration time of inspection processes by 40%.
