Flexxbotics, the autonomous manufacturing platform leader, today announced further enhancements to the Beckhoff ADS TwinCAT transformer connector driver within the Flexxbotics open-source project on GitHub. The updated ADS TwinCAT capabilities expand many-to-many interoperability and high-performance, bi-directional control from Beckhoff TwinCAT PLCs and IPC-based control systems to machines and production systems running non-Beckhoff controllers. The updated ADS TwinCAT connector driver is available now under the Apache 2.0 license in the Flexxbotics open-source repository at https://github.com/Flexxbotics/transformers Using Software-Defined Automation to Extend Beckhoff ADS TwinCAT Beckhoff ADS (Automation Device Specification) is the base industrial protocol used across Beckhoff TwinCAT PLCs and IPC-based control platforms deployed in high-performance automation environments. Widely adopted for its flexibility and real-time performance, ADS-based systems can require significant integration logic embedded in point-to-point custom interfaces to interoperate with non-Beckhoff machines, robotics, vision systems, inspection equipment, and IT systems. Flexxbotics transformer’s expanded capabilities address these complexities by extending ADS TwinCAT interoperability within the Flexxbotics software-defined

Trimble announced Trimble ProjectSightⓇsoftware, a leading construction project management solution, is now available for certain regions in Europe. The expansion brings a centralized, cloud-based solution to contractors in the UK, Ireland, and the Benelux region, specifically localized to help meet European compliance and workflow requirements. Historically, many companies — especially small and midsized operations — have viewed digital project management tools as out of reach due to the cost or complexity for teams without dedicated IT departments. ProjectSight removes these barriers, offering a scalable solution that combines powerful data handling with an intuitive user interface. Collaboration without complexity Collaboration improves performance, quality and safety in construction, but fragmented communication and siloed data remain persistent industry hurdles. ProjectSight provides a real-time environment for capturing, organizing and sharing critical project data, including drawings, RFIs, submittals, and site photos. By simplifying the user experience, Trimble aims to ensure that "powerful" no longer means "inaccessible." “ProjectSight empowers construction

Aras, a leading provider of digital thread solutions for product lifecycle management (PLM) and engineering AI, today announced an expanded cloud strategy for Aras Innovator that gives customers greater flexibility in how they deploy, modernize, and scale cloud PLM without sacrificing configurability, control, or access to advanced AI capabilities. Aras leads the industry in delivering highly capable SaaS PLM solutions, earning recognition from leading analysts. It was recently placed among the highest-scoring vendors in the PLM application market and was awarded the IDC 2025 SaaS Customer Satisfaction Award for PLM. Aras is seeing a strong shift toward cloud adoption, with well over 50% of new Aras Innovator deployments delivered as SaaS and a growing number of long-time Aras customers making the transition. As enterprises modernize digital engineering and manufacturing environments to capitalize on advances in cloud and AI, many struggle to adopt SaaS without sacrificing flexibility, governance, or existing investments. Aras Cloud addresses these

AGTEK, part of Hexagon, announced Reveal Transform, a new AI module that simplifies and accelerates how contractors convert plan sets into actionable digital data. Built specifically for the heavy construction industry, Reveal Transform uses AI‑assisted automation to reconstruct PDF plan sheets back into CAD‑like digital form, eliminating hours of manual cleanup and enabling estimators and project teams to understand quantities earlier, with higher accuracy, and far less effort Turning PDF plans into structured, usable data – fast Reveal Transform addresses a persistent bottleneck in heavy construction: preparing plan data for takeoff and modeling. With a guided, step‑by‑step workflow, the new module enables users to: Quickly reassemble PDF plan sheets into clean, structured digital linework. Automatically extract and convert text into usable data Snap, align, and classify plan elements with AI assistance Align sheets to real‑world coordinates Export clean, ready‑to‑use data into AGTEK’s Gradework platform for the fastest takeoffs and machine control model Driving value across estimating and construction Reveal Transform allows

Introduces the only cloud-native MBD capability built into the core modeling experience, fully integrated within CAD and PDM Creates a single, always-up-to-date product definition by embedding manufacturing information directly in the live 3D model Improves collaboration and change control across engineering and manufacturing PTC announced the release of a fully cloud-native Model-Based Definition (MBD) capability, built directly into its Onshape® computer-aided design (CAD) and product data management (PDM) platform. The new capability allows engineering teams to add manufacturing information directly into the 3D model early in the design process, enabling clearer design intent, fewer handoffs, and improved efficiency across design, documentation, manufacturing, and quality. In traditional file-based CAD and PDM systems, manufacturing data is spread across drawings, exports, and disconnected files. This approach makes product definition harder to keep current, accessible, and trustworthy. The Onshape cloud-native platform, built on Amazon Web Services (AWS), helps eliminate these challenges by allowing teams to work from the same, always‑up‑to‑date
