Trimble and Autodesk, Inc. have entered into an interoperability agreement aimed at saving customers time and reducing project costs typically associated with workflow inefficiency across different suppliers' technologies. This will benefit architects, engineers and contractors, and importantly, project owners by enabling more freedom to optimize technology workflows needed to meet the complex requirements of today's construction projects.  Autodesk and Trimble have a shared goal of meeting the evolving needs of the building and infrastructure industries. Reliable, fluent exchange of information among multiple stakeholders and platforms is essential to this end. The Trimble and Autodesk collaboration demonstrates their ongoing commitment to support open industry standards such as Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) and Construction Operations Building Information Exchange (COBie), and can enable current and prospective Autodesk and Trimble customers working on the same projects to work together seamlessly through optimized file compatibility across applications. Under the terms of agreement, Autodesk

Altair and Maplesoft have entered a strategic partnership, allowing Altair to OEM Modelica®, the object-oriented modeling language engine of MapleSim, Maplesoft's advanced system-level modeling and simulation platform.  Altair will embed and leverage the MapleSim Modelica Engine to support their model-based system development strategy and focus on multi-physics simulation. Modelica is a non-proprietary, object-oriented, system-level, equation based language to conveniently model complex physical systems. The flexible Modelica multi-domain framework will make it easy for Altair customers to seamlessly incorporate components from different domains into system-level models. These models and components are open and can be modified, making them easy to reuse, customize, and extend. Users will also get access to a growing ecosystem of Modelica-based components, which are often highly specialized and contain the distilled technical knowledge of subject matter experts. "Maplesoft is a huge believer in the Modelica standard and Altair's adoption of Modelica is a clear indication of the growth

ModuleWorks Dental Framework wins a benchmark test based on calculation and milling times and the surface quality of the machined product. The tests were conducted on the Roland-DWX51D machine by a ModuleWorks partner company to compare the performance of two leading CAD/CAM solutions for the dental sector. ModuleWorks Dental Framework achieved 40% faster CAM-cycle calculation times and 8% faster milling times with a similar or better surface quality than the other tested solution. ModuleWorks Dental Framework is the interface between the dental CAD or nesting software and the CNC machine. It is integrated directly into the nesting software and is a CAM-engine that performs toolpath calculations and generates the corresponding NC file. It uses machining templates in the form of xml scripts for efficient and flexible implementation, and contains a complete toolset library for manufacturing a wide spectrum of dental indications. The integrated kernel, which is used for the toolpath

NEC Corporation today announced the launch of Obbligato III R4.1, the latest version of its Obbligato III Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) software, which consolidates the management of product technology data such as design drawings, specifications and bills of material (BOM). Obbligato III R4.1 manages not only existing BOM for part types and quantities, but also bills of process (BOP) for manufacturing processes, equipment used and others, thereby promoting the sharing and succession of process charts, operating instructions and other manufacturing knowledge. Furthermore, consolidating the management of BOM and BOP enables the influence of specification changes and faults to be identified promptly, not only with respect to parts, but also with respect to processes and equipment, and to be addressed in a timely manner. Ensuring the consistency of manufacturing quality (monozukuri) expedites the start-up of new global manufacturing sites and contributes to the transfer of production. Moreover, the continual improvement of BOP
