Illustrative · AIFoxconn says it is seeing significant gains in production efficiency, engineering workloads and quality control by combining industrial AI infrastructure, language models and digital twin technology.
Illustrative · AIVisual Components introduced FactoryLens at FABTECH 2026 as an integrated extension of its simulation platform. The tool lets users move from a standard engineering view to a high-fidelity visualization of production layouts without rebuilding the model in separate software.
Illustrative · AITRUMPF ended fiscal 2025/26 with nearly unchanged sales, a recovery in order intake and a sharp improvement in operating profitability. The U.S. was the company’s largest market by sales, while Germany and China declined.
Illustrative · AIA3 has published ISO 21423:2026, an international standard defining common communication and interoperability requirements for industrial mobile robots from different suppliers, including AGVs and AMRs.
Illustrative · AIEmbotech and BMW say they have moved 1 million vehicles using automated driving technology inside production and logistics areas. The system is deployed at four sites in Germany and the U.K.
Illustrative · AIAnnouncements at ROSCon 2026 point to intensifying competition around open-source robotics software. For industrial users, that could mean easier access to development, simulation, control and motion-planning tools.
Illustrative · AIFrom wafer processing to assembly operations, industrial AI is entering process engineering, simulation, testing and inspection. Examples highlighted by Hannover Messe suggest a shift from exploratory projects toward more concrete use, even as validation and control remain unresolved issues.
Illustrative · AIThe European Commission’s Joint Research Centre has issued a questionnaire for producers of intermediate and finished steel products to gather information on how relevant data for the future Digital Product Passport under ESPR is collected, managed and exchanged.
IllustrativePre-show announcements from FABTECH 2026’s Forming & Fabricating Pavilion point to a common direction: tighter integration of machines, automation, software and material handling to reduce transfers, setup time and production variability.
Illustrative · AIFrom experimental facility to contract production, Atomic Industries is using in-cavity sensors and its Nucleus stack to create a closed loop between mold design and molding, with early results on cycle time and launch timing.
Illustrative · AIAt IMTS 2026, multiple software suppliers are preparing to show updates in CAD/CAM, CNC postprocessing, AI-enabled ERP, mixed-robot environments and asset management.
Illustrative · AIModern Machine Shop argues that IMTS has steadily moved its center of gravity from machine tools to the systems that guide them. Across the 2014-2026 cycle, digitalization, plant-wide automation and now artificial intelligence have taken a larger role on the show floor.
