Moreover, global bookings more than tripled compared to the same period last year, the OEM said.
The company credits China and the rest of Asia, adding that orders from Europe are on the rise, too, jumping 30% sequentially in February. "China played the dominating role, but since the middle of 2009 order bookings from Europe have begun to recover as well," the firm said.
Siemens also claimed market share rose by up to 4% in parts of Asia and several European regions.
