Visual 2000 International announced the availability of a host of new shipping carrier integrations to their suite of omni-channel software. The new carrier integrations are aimed at providing seamless user experiences for their apparel, footwear and accessory customers in Europe, North America and Australia.The direct carrier integrations include advanced features such as automated label printing and import-export document generation from warehouse packing stations. Charles Benoualid, VP of Research and Development, says "creating omni-channel success depends on a solid and efficient fulfillment system. Without automated shipping processes, businesses struggle to scale their operations and end up needing to cut corners, especially when it comes to the channel-agnostic consumer." Wrought with many manual steps, fulfillment processes can be both complicated, delicate and time consuming to perform. Using the Visual 2000 End2End Suite, including advanced PLM and ERP systems, businesses can directly connect and easily automate shipping processes via a wide range of carriers

Manufacturers are facing a dizzying array of technology and industry disruptions.  Crowdfunded start-ups can design a new product, 3D print prototypes, refine it based on real-time collected data and outsource on-demand manufacturing in record time. This future of making things is upon us, and it compels product developers to innovate or get eclipsed by more nimble competitors. To help companies big and small adapt to this changing environment, Autodesk introduced its Fusion product innovation platform, which unites every stage of the product development lifecycle in a single platform. Fusion 360 is the foundation of this cloud-based platform, giving product developers parametric and direct modeling, mechanical engineering, drawings, visualization, simulation, machining and additive manufacturing, all in one place and available on demand from any device via subscription for as little as $25/month (and free for students and startups).   Product lifecycle management, Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), and data management are also essential
