Transforming manufacturing with intelligent robotics, AI-driven automation, and digital twin technology.

Accenture unveiled state-of-the-art industrial robots at Hannover Messe 2025 with the help of NVIDIA and Microsoft that are designed to revolutionize manufacturing and supply chain operations. These robots, including humanoid robots Agility Robotics' Digit and Sanctuary AI's Phoenix, can work alongside human employees in factory and warehouse environments.

Accenture builds virtual factories based on NVIDIA's simulation and artificial intelligence (AI) features. Through it, factory design and operations can be optimized virtually and simulated before applying them in the actual world. It reduces the time required by organizations to perform tasks, operates at maximum efficiency, and simplifies the process.

Microsoft's input in this project is advanced data analysis and cloud computing technology. This enables real-time processing and decision-making with the support of data, making the robots more responsive to diverse production needs. The integration of these advanced technologies is likely to counter the insufficiency of human labor while making operations more flexible in production environments.

Andreas Schick, Chief Operating Officer of Schaeffler AG, marked the influence of disruptive technologies like physical AI and digital twins on transforming modern manufacturing processes. Patrick Vollmer, Accenture Global Industry Group Lead, marked how physical AI is transforming industrial automation with new ways of controlling and training autonomous mobile robots and humanoid robots.

This innovation by Accenture, NVIDIA, and Microsoft is a giant leap when it comes to industrial automation. The convergence of AI, robotics, and digital simulation is the driver for producing highly responsive and efficient manufacturing environments that will establish new standards in the industry.

As more and more companies are embracing AI-powered robots, the future of manufacturing is brighter, more responsive, and more capable of addressing the changing needs of the global supply chain.
