    I would assume that Siemens is now in the same boat as GE where they have products being made in Croatia, Poland, Austria, Maylasia (jobbed out for lower labor costs)...???..

    A buddy of mine had a really good business going here in MO, doing board repair work for some Siemens motor driver cards of some sort... It was enough work to keep 6-10 folks busy DEsoldering/repairing boards year round... It was kind of funny because he knew NOTHING about electronics or repairs, he just fell into the deal and ran with it, small rented space with work benches/solder stations... I guess it was all in the name of lowering labor/handling costs for Siemens...
