This Siemens white paper explores how industrial robotics is entering a new phase driven by the need for flexibility and complexity in modern manufacturing. Traditional systems based on rigid programming are being replaced by intelligent robots using AI and machine learning to adapt and learn behaviors. Virtual commissioning 4.0 allows these systems to be trained and tested in digital twins before physical deployment, reducing downtime and safety risks. Key technologies include AGVs, vision-based picking, and multi-system coordination. The paper emphasizes the shift from predefined actions to learned behaviors as essential for scalable, responsive, and safe production environments .
