Rockwell Automation, Inc. reported third quarter fiscal 2024 results. "Rockwell delivered another quarter of good execution with sales, margin, and EPS all above our expectations. I’m particularly pleased with the progress we are making on driving productivity to support our long-term margin expansion targets. We are already seeing the benefit from these actions this fiscal year and expect to drive margin growth and productivity through FY25 and beyond. On the demand side, we did see additional project delays this quarter, with customers citing weaker consumer demand, high interest rates, and policy uncertainty around tax, tariffs, and stimulus incentives as the main drivers for deferring their investment plans. Therefore, while we saw progress on inventory de-stocking at our distributors and machine builders in Q3, our low-single-digit sequential growth in orders was lower than we expected," said Blake Moret, Chairman and CEO. Fiscal Q3 2024 Financial Results Fiscal 2024 third quarter sales were $2,051 million,

Two reasons to celebrate: BASF Polyurethanes has been using CIM Database for 30 years and is currently planning to further expand its global PLM environment. At CONTACT Software's headquarters in Bremen, the two companies celebrated their joint anniversary in early July.

Since then, the BASF subsidiary has continuously expanded the system and, together with CONTACT, developed it into a global PLM platform with numerous applications. The plastics specialist primarily uses CIM Database PLM for the development of its Cellasto® products.
