Honeywell has been selected by Fitzroy River Water, part of Rockhampton Regional Council, to modernize and automate key water treatment facilities, as part of the Council’s long-term infrastructure improvement program. Rockhampton, located in Central Queensland, relies on Fitzroy River Water to deliver essential water and sewerage services to homes, businesses, and industries across the region. To meet growing demand, the utility provider is upgrading capacity from 50,000 to 75,000 equivalent persons (EP), a measure of population served. Honeywell’s technologies will help improve operational reliability, strengthen cybersecurity and extend the lifespan of critical assets at the Glenmore Water Treatment Plant and North Rockhampton Sewage Treatment Plant. As part of the upgrade, Honeywell will deploy its Experion Process Knowledge System (PKS) SCADA R530. This software-based technology helps to automate remote operations, enabling operators at Glenmore to securely monitor and control the North Rockhampton site from a single interface. This makes it easier and faster to

Simulations Plus, Inc. (“Simulations Plus” or the “Company”), a global leader in model-informed and AI-accelerated drug development that advances biopharma innovation, responded to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s draft guidance on streamlined nonclinical safety studies for monospecific monoclonal antibodies. The guidance encourages reduced reliance on animal studies and elevates mechanistic understanding, pharmacokinetics, and integrated weight-of-evidence (WoE) assessments for nonclinical decision-making. “The FDA’s draft guidance signals a clear regulatory mandate towards mechanistic, model-informed science, and Simulations Plus is uniquely positioned to help clients respond with confidence,” said Shawn O’Connor, Chief Executive Officer of Simulations Plus. “Our scientific engines, workflows, and cross-disciplinary capabilities have supported these integrated approaches for years.” Mechanistic WoE Approaches Already Embedded in Simulations Plus’ PracticeSimulations Plus enables clients to integrate physiologically based pharmacokinetics (PBPK), quantitative systems toxicology/pharmacology (QST/QSP), clinical pharmacokinetics (PK), and mechanistic insights to support WoE assessments aligned with FDA-recommended approaches. This includes PBPK modeling in GastroPlus® to

Powered by Stratasys technology, Airbus is producing more than 25,000 flight-ready 3D-printed parts annually, transforming how aircraft are built and maintained across its global fleet. Evolving from its first part, a spare crew seat component, Airbus has embraced additive manufacturing, taking it to new heights with more than 200,000 certified Stratasys polymer parts now in active service. Recent data shows that the implementation of Stratasys’ 3D printed parts utilized in the Airbus A350 resulted in a 43 percent weight reduction, the elimination of the Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) requirement, and an 85 percent reduction in lead time, saving significant cost and multiple weeks of production time. Airbus has parts printed for the A320, A350, and A400M models using the Stratasys ULTEM™ 9085 filament Certified Grade (CG) material on multiple Stratasys industrial-grade FDM® printers. “Stratasys’ additive manufacturing technology is an integral part of our commitment to safe and sustainable aviation,” said Serge Senac, Airbus Industrial

The leading provider of software for digital transformation relies on local experts to provide even closer support to Asian customers. A new Center of Experience and an event series enable companies to experience CONTACT’s IoT and PLM platform Elements firsthand. Asia is redefining its role in the global economy: countries like China, India, and Vietnam are increasingly shifting from manufacturing to innovation industries. At the same time, established high-tech nations such as Japan and South Korea strive to maintain and strengthen their competitive edge. In both cases, digitalization platforms like CONTACT Elements are key. The PLM and IoT solution enables companies to optimize development, streamline production processes, and operate products intelligently. CONTACT Software has now opened hubs in Hanoi (Vietnam), Shanghai (China), Tokyo (Japan), Pune (India), and Seoul (South Korea) to provide even closer support to customers and partners across Asia. With employees on the ground, CONTACT can respond more quickly to customer requirements.

Bluebeam, a leading developer of solutions and services for architecture, engineering and construction professionals worldwide and part of the Nemetschek Group, announced major updates designed to unify office and field teams. The launch of Task Link, a first-of-its-kind native integration between Bluebeam Revu and GoCanvas, along with significant enhancements to Bluebeam’s iOS and Android apps, delivers streamlined task management, real-time visibility, and organized documentation across every phase of a project.  Task Link: Closing the gap between planning and execution  The launch of Task Link represents the first major milestone in bringing Bluebeam and GoCanvas together into a unified field–office workflow. When the companies joined forces last year, the shared vision was to combine Bluebeam’s industry-leading markup and collaboration capabilities with GoCanvas’ real-time field data collection, giving construction teams a seamless, end-to-end workflow with fewer communication gaps, fewer errors, and far more visibility.  What teams can do with Task Link:  Push tasks from Revu to the field instantly,

ModuleWorks announces the 2025.12 release of its software components for digital manufacturing and digital factory. This latest release of the ModuleWorks SDK offers a range of new, automated features designed to enhance machining efficiency, process safety and part quality. New Corner Finishing for Mold and Die Complex molds and dies often feature deep pockets and sharp internal corners that are difficult to machine due to limited access and tooling constraints. Traditional 3-axis milling relies on long, slender tools, leading to higher costs, greater risk, and residual material that requires manual finishing. ModuleWorks 2025.12 introduces a new Corner Finishing toolpath, designed to overcome these challenges by detecting uncut stock, generating stable tool center lines, and merging optimized paths to minimize repositioning. It automatically adjusts toolpath strategies for both steep and shallow areas, ensuring accurate material removal, high surface quality and reduced manual polishing. FeedControl – User Defined Process Constraints FeedControl dynamically adjusts toolpaths according

ENCY 2.6 is the latest update in the ENCY 2 line and is now available. This release delivers 114 changes focused on more predictable Design behavior, smoother day-to-day workflows, and a broad set of stability and performance fixes. Helical lines in Design: clearer control and geometryThe Helix tool in the Design module has been updated to make setup more flexible and easier to read on screen. You can now use either a surface or an axis as the Base element. When an axis is selected, an on-screen arrow lets you flip the helix direction, and radial dimensions have been replaced with diameter dimensions that are shown directly in the graphics window. When you select a surface as the Base element, diameter parameters are hidden and only Twist By Pitch and Twist by Angle remain, reducing visual noise. You can also specify how far the helix start and end offsets are shifted from the
