Siemens has introduced its Eigen Engineering Agent, an industrial AI tool for automation engineering, to customers in Thailand. Integrated with Siemens’ TIA Portal platform, the agent aims to assist engineers by planning, executing and validating automation tasks, including PLC coding, HMI visualization and device configuration. It also supports ECAD integration by reading electrical design files, identifying inconsistencies, configuring connections and generating PLC tags based on hardware topology. Additionally, it can generate projects from plain-language machine descriptions. The launch aims to address Thailand’s automation engineering talent gap and support engineers in system-level decision-making.
