Hexagon’s Asset Lifecycle Intelligence division announced the release of HxGN EAM Databridge Pro, a new middleware and integration broker module. HxGN EAM Databridge Pro represents the next evolution in enterprise asset management technology from Hexagon. Powered by Apache NiFi, a leading open-source data flow automation platform, Databridge Pro provides enhanced data integration capabilities by introducing new features for configuring data pipelines, managing endpoint connections and providing better visibility for efficient troubleshooting and debugging. Databridge Pro empowers users across an organisation, from data architects and engineers to system administrators and operators. It caters to two distinct personas: those that shape the data landscape and those responsible for the smooth operation of systems. This dual-focus approach significantly reduces errors and unexpected outcomes in the integration processes, allowing users to concentrate on their core strengths. “This new technology allows vital data to persist throughout an organisation. The low-code/no-code platform lets users easily connect many disparate systems into

A leader in prescriptive supply chain planning solutions, Logility, Inc., today announced the delivery of generative AI capabilities, extending its AI-first approach for supply chain management. Leveraging their AI-native platform, Logility’s GenAI aids in mastering the complexity of supply chain data, helping enterprises to make faster decisions that deliver competitive advantage. Today’s supply chain professionals are drowning in data, and precious hours are wasted in data collation and searching for answers from dashboards and reports that are quickly outdated. Logility’s GenAI is designed to improve productivity by providing actionable insights via a conversational interface that anyone from any department – sales, marketing, operations, or finance – can use to speak supply chain in users’ everyday language. Know Faster. Grow Faster.Logility’s GenAI is designed to accelerate supply chain decision making, helping to dramatically increase access to information and the productivity of all team members involved in demand and inventory management. The new offering

Ansys announced Fluent Web UI, a web-based technology that enables users to remotely access simulations from any device. Fluent Web UI provides an interface for Ansys Fluent™, an industry-leading CFD solver with native GPUs that can speed time-to-result by almost 10x. Users are now able to run, control, and monitor simulations on the cloud or on-premises high-performance computing clusters. The streamlined interface delivers pervasive insights significantly faster for a wide range of CFD applications, including automotive under-hood heat transfer, gas turbine simulations, and external aerodynamics for aerospace applications. Building on Ansys’ cloud initiatives, Fluent Web UI complements other offerings to provide users with a comprehensive suite of tools, from design to validation. For instance, Ansys Discovery™ Burst relies on fast-scaling clusters of GPUs to facilitate expansive, early design exploration that helps designers identify optimal designs faster, reducing the need for physical prototyping. Moreover, users can leverage the power of generative artificial intelligence (AI) with the

Schneider Electric, the leader in the digital transformation of energy management and automation, in collaboration with the technology companies Intel and Red Hat, announced the release of a Distributed Control Node (DCN) software framework. An extension of Schneider Electric’s EcoStruxure™ Automation Expert, this new framework enables industrial companies to move to a software-defined, plug-and-produce solution, allowing them to enhance their operations, ensure quality, reduce complexity, and optimize costs. Next generation of industrial control Aligned with the goals of the Open Process Automation Forum (OPAF), which is dedicated to driving interoperability and portability, the three collaborators have worked together to create a modern, network-based experience that will lead the way to the next generation of industrial control. “This project is the culmination of two years of co-innovation to create efficient, future-proof distributed control systems,” said Nathalie Marcotte, Senior Vice President of Process Automation at Schneider Electric. “The DCN framework is key to fostering an open automation approach, enabling industrial businesses to grow

Key Features of SprutCAM X and SprutCAM X Robot 17.0.12: Plunge Parameters Users can now specify tool design features like the maximal ramp angle and minimal cut diameter. The machining simulation will take these parameters into account and provide an error message if the values exceed the specified limits. In certain situations, it is necessary to customize the tool plunge parameters independently of the tool’s predefined specifications. To avoid making frequent adjustments directly to the tool, users can easily configure distinct plunge values for simulations by accessing the “Check for plunges” option within the Parameters tab for each specific operation. Additionally, SprutCAM X provides the flexibility to disable the “Check for plunges” feature entirely, making it particularly useful in specialized applications like machining foam components. Singularity Avoidance Angle This innovative option ensures that the tool deviates from the fixed axis at a specified angle consistently, even in the absence of collisions. This helps avoid the “singularity” of the rotating table,

Altair, a global leader in computational science and artificial intelligence (AI), announced Areus Infocommunication Plc. has joined Altair’s growing channel partner network.
