Honeywell announced the new brand identities for its automation and aerospace businesses ─ Honeywell Technologies and Honeywell Aerospace. These will become two independent, publicly traded companies on June 29, 2026, when Honeywell spins off its Aerospace business. Honeywell's current brand value is estimated at $18 billion1 and has been synonymous with delivering innovation to customers for 140 years. Both new brands will draw on Honeywell's history2 while reflecting each company's focused strategy and long-term growth trajectory: The automation business will be known as Honeywell Technologies and will continue to trade on the Nasdaq under the ticker "HON." The company will be a global leader of the industrial world's transition from automation to autonomy, with a comprehensive portfolio of mission-critical, outcome-based technologies, solutions and software to drive customers' productivity and growth. The aerospace business will trade on the Nasdaq under the ticker "HONA" and will be known as Honeywell Aerospace. The company will be one of the largest publicly traded,

Siemens announced that Haddy, a U.S.-based additive manufacturing company, has adopted the Siemens Xcelerator open digital business platform, to scale local additive manufacturing using circular materials across industries including furniture, marine and defense.  Founded around the idea that additive manufacturing can support both local production and circular material use, Haddy produces large-format components using robotic additive manufacturing processes and recyclable and biodegradable materials designed to stay in use. Products are made to be taken back at end of life, reprocessed into feedstock and returned to production, helping to reduce waste and keep materials out of landfill. Materials are sourced domestically in the U.S. to help reduce transportation-related emissions while supporting local supply chains. “Our goal is to keep materials in use and production close to where products are needed,” said Jay Rodgers, chief executive officer, Haddy. “Adopting Siemens Xcelerator helps us connect design, automation and manufacturing in a way that supports circularity, local

 PDF Takeaways Aras is driving a transition toward “Adaptive PLM” and the “Agentification” of the user experience. By utilizing AI and dependency graphs rather than static connections, the platform is being designed to predict the impacts of design changes across the enterprise and automate complex product lifecycle processes. Cloud-based SaaS adoption within the Aras customer base is accelerating rapidly, with 80 percent of new customers choosing cloud-based SaaS deployments. Massive enterprise migrations are currently underway, most notably automotive supplier Denso, which is transitioning tens of thousands of users to the cloud by September 2026. Customer presentations demonstrated substantial operational improvements leveraging the Aras platform. Highlights included Aisin achieving a 30 percent reduction in lead times through preventive management, and Panasonic successfully replacing a legacy PLM system to integrate its engineering and manufacturing bills of materials. Introduction The product lifecycle management software market is experiencing significant pressure to adapt to increasing product complexity, regulatory demands, and supply

The new VOLTA, modeFRONTIER and nDAI 2026R2 is now available. modeFRONTIER launches connectorSTUDIO, the app for building custom Connectors to integrate external software/scripts into modeFRONTIER workflows. VOLTA expands Data Manager as your central hub, integrating business projects alongside your simulation data. nDAI empowers its nD Modeler app to create models for any variable in your dataset. Release highlights modeFRONTIER: Introducing connectorSTUDIO app connectorSTUDIO lets you create custom nodes (connectors) to seamlessly integrate external software, scripts, or proprietary tools directly into your modeFRONTIER workflow. Connectors are the next generation of custom integrations, allowing you to: Set all Connector properties, parameters, and behaviors directly through the interface, making the creation process faster and more accessible. Use Connectors with the same ease and interface consistency as standard, pre-installed integration nodes. Export your custom nodes in the native MYN format to share them with colleagues VOLTA: Manage business projects directly in Data Manager Data Manager now manages business projects (BPMN models, processes,

The new version of CONTACT’s PLM and IoT platform provides customers with the ideal foundation to unleash the full potential of AI in development, manufacturing, and service. A host of new features boost innovation and bring greater efficiency and speed to everyday work. In the new release of its open low-code platform Elements, CONTACT Software embeds the powerful intelligence layer Fourier AI system-wide and delivers innovations to enhance efficiency across the entire lifecycle – from change management and manufacturing to service. Additional improvements accelerate day-to-day work with the platform. Integrating AI deep into the product lifecycle With Fourier AI, the new Elements release provides a scalable infrastructure that enables companies to flexibly implement their individual AI use cases. It is specifically designed for demanding engineering tasks and deeply integrated into development, production, and service processes. Fourier AI understands the context of data in CONTACT Elements and delivers reliable results. To achieve this, an orchestrator combines

Keysight Technologies, Inc. announced a new capability within its RF Circuit Simulation Professional software which enables engineers to capture their design process on an executable whiteboard. It replicates the engineer’s decision process, capturing simulations, optimizations, decision trees, and design parameters built on prior analyses. Each step generates editable Python code that can be saved, shared, and redeployed across Keysight Advanced Design System (ADS), Cadence Virtuoso, and Synopsys Custom Compiler environments.  RF organizations face a looming talent gap. McKinsey projects the semiconductor industry will need 88,000 engineers by 2029. In RF design, the challenge is more acute. Simulation methodologies spanning multiple physics domains can take years to master, and critical expertise is often lost when senior engineers leave. Design teams face inefficient workflows, simulation bottlenecks, and knowledge barriers. RF Circuit Simulation Professional lets engineers construct their workflow on a visual whiteboard or in auto-generated Python scripts. Each step executes simulations, optimizations, and design decisions in

JuliaHub announced Dyad 3.0, a major release of its AI-native systems simulation platform for the design, refinement, and validation of complex physical systems. Dyad 3.0 introduces autonomous simulation agents that work alongside engineers to interpret specifications, mine prior designs and test data, generate candidate models, run physics-based simulations, enforce physical and safety constraints, and produce validated models and control code. Dyad is already in production with Fortune 100 customers and is being demonstrated today in a global livestream. "AI has transformed software development through agents that combine LLMs with open-source compilers, but engineering physical systems requires the combination of LLMs with a physics compiler that grounds hardware designs in physical laws," said Dr. Viral B. Shah, CEO and co-founder of JuliaHub. "Dyad 3.0 brings agentic AI directly into the engineering workflow by combining autonomous agents, a multi-physics compiler, high-fidelity simulation, SciML, and enterprise deployment capabilities into one seamless environment. It gives
