This educational webinar will look further into the promise of digitalization and the role Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) has to play. ANN ARBOR, Michigan, 6 February 2018-CIMdata, Inc., the leading global PLM strategic management consulting and research firm, announces an upcoming free educational webinar, "Digitalization and PLM - The Next Big Thing or All Hype?" The webinar will take place on Thursday, March 8, 2018 at 11:00 a.m. (EST) and will last for one hour. There is real energy behind the idea of digitalization, with many companies embracing the concept and beginning to invest heavily. Whether digitalization lives up to its promise may all come down to proper positioning and execution. The results from a CIMdata survey, conducted in late 2017, reveal that many of the companies aggressively pursuing a digitalization strategy do not have a good understanding of the interrelationship with and the importance of PLM. During this webinar, we will explore

Rize Inc. announced that it has deepened its partnership with Dassault Systèmes’ SOLIDWORKS brand and made Rize™ One 3D printers inclusive in the SOLIDWORKS design experience with a new Rize add-in.

Nano Dimension Ltd. has unveiled a new SOLIDWORKS add-in to its DragonFly 2020 Pro 3D Printer that makes additive manufacturing with embedded electronics a feasible option for mechanical and electrical engineers. For the first time, 3D printing of complex prototypes made of polymers and metals and designed in Dassault Systèmes’ SOLIDWORKS applications can be easily 3D-printed on Nano Dimension’s DragonFly 2020 Pro 3D Printer in a single build process. This marks a significant advancement in how electronics are designed in SOLIDWORKS, and makes it possible to create 3D printed complex geometric structures with embedded electronics, encapsulated sensors, antennas and more. The SOLIDWORKS add-in eliminates time-consuming processes, increases design possibilities and ultimately results in the development of more capable products. Another inherent benefit of the add-in is the dramatic reduction in the cost of errors when creating complex, geometric parts, accelerating product design and time-to-market. With conventional editing software for 3D-printed electronics, users

BOXX Technologies today announced that APEXX S3, the world’s fastest workstation, will be demonstrated at BOXX booth #811 at SOLIDWORKS World 2018, Feb. 4-7, at the Los Angeles Convention Center in Los Angeles, CA.
