A reliable database is crucial for the success of industrial AI applications. In a presentation at Hannover Messe, CONTACT will demonstrate how the digital twin and modern data ecosystems are paving the way for this. With artificial intelligence (AI), companies take their product development to a new level: they extract metadata from CAD models, analyze data series, or search documents using natural language. The basic prerequisite for this is valid, structured data that can be exchanged securely. At Hannover Messe, Christian Stürmer from CONTACT Software will present an innovative approach to this challenge. His presentation “The Digital Twin: Key to AI Enablement and Innovation in Industry 4.0” will take place on April 4 at 1:50 PM on the Tech Transfer Stage (hall 2, booth B02).  The key lies in combining standardized data formats, such as the Asset Administration Shell (AAS), with sovereign data infrastructures. The AAS is an open exchange format for the digital

Ansys and NVIDIA unveiled a new technology framework enabling customers to design tailored solutions using the power of AI, advanced simulation, and physically-based visualization. Converging Ansys and NVIDIA open-source technologies narrows the gap between simulation and reality by enabling customized workflows, fostering collaboration, and making simulation more accessible to non-experts. Ansys applied this framework to demonstrate how it can empower clinicians to quickly analyze human heart anatomies in extreme detail — equipping them with deeper insights to make more informed decisions. The companies will jointly demonstrate this research at NVIDIA GTC in San Jose, CA March 18-21.  PyAnsys is a collection of open-source Python libraries that bridge Ansys tools and the Python scripting language, making it easier to run simulations, modify geometries, and process results automatically. NVIDIA NIM — a set of inference microservices for developers to easily deploy AI models — enables Ansys users to connect with large language models (LLMs), in this

ENCY 1.1 delivers significant enhancements, notably the ability to precisely position text using custom coordinate systems, streamlined machining workflows, and expanded operational capabilities including lathe machining for robots. Improved Text Placement Previously, when using the “Text” option, markings were created by default within the current Local Coordinate System (LCS). Update 1.1 introduces the capability to select a custom coordinate system for text placement. Users can now create an LCS directly on a specific part face, ensuring precise and immediate placement of text markings. Once created, the text position is remembered, eliminating the need to readjust it if the LCS parameters change. Enhanced Usability and Convenience Lathe Operations for Robots: Lathe operations are now available for robots, expanding machining capabilities and flexibility. Separate Stocks in Hole Machining: Radial and axial stocks are now managed separately in hole machining operations. The radial stock is specifically available for Pocketing and Helical machining strategies. Extended Capabilities for 6D Contour Operation: Users can now define top
