AI is attracting enormous attention across manufacturing and industrial sectors. But successful adoption doesn’t start with algorithms. It begins with putting the right groundwork in place.

For organisations working with industrial IoT and connected products, AI delivers the most value when it builds on a solid digital and data foundation. Without that, even the most advanced models struggle to produce meaningful results.

Below are the key elements that need to be in place before AI can deliver real business impact.

Composites have moved from niche materials to core components of modern manufacturing. Aerospace, automotive, renewables and medical are just four of the sectors that rely on composites to deliver lighter, stronger products.

In this article, we’ll take an in-depth look at composites. We’ll also share how Creo by PTC helps manufacturers make the most of these versatile materials.

Aerospace and defence programmes operate at a scale unheard of in most industries. Projects often involve thousands of stakeholders and long development cycles. Teams work across distributed supply chains while adhering to strict regulatory standards. There are also potentially millions of requirements, which must remain consistent and traceable.

Products are now more complex than ever, with mechanical systems typically integrated with electronics and software. In this era, teams find they must deliver faster while managing more variants and adhering to stricter compliance requirements. Success depends on how well organisations manage configurations, variants and traceability across the product lifecycle.

Did you know there is a backlog of 17,000 aeroplanes waiting to be built? Aerospace and defence order books are also full. You’d think that looks like a position of strength for industry, but you’d be wrong.

Concurrent Engineering has acquired SDC Systems. This strategic move strengthens our capabilities in the ALM and Codebeamer space, aligning with our commitment to deliver advanced solutions that tackle modern engineering challenges.

This acquisition is a key step in Concurrent Engineering's commitment to delivering advanced solutions that tackle modern engineering challenges. By joining forces, the company will build on its existing knowledge and expertise, expand its range of solutions, and provide greater long-term value to its customers and partners.

Digital transformation is changing the MedTech industry as it shifts from traditional hardware to a more data-driven approach. With higher expectations from patients, new demands from regulators and competition from new digital-first entrants, MedTech has never been more challenging. 

In this article, we’ll look at how digital transformation can help MedTech companies overcome these challenges. Whether it’s AI, IoT, cloud, advanced analytics or anything else, the key to MedTech survival lies in these capabilities. Let’s get started.

Sustainability used to be a nice-to-have in MedTech, but now it’s a core priority. It’s no surprise that manufacturers are under pressure to change how devices are created, produced, packaged and handled at end of life. After all, the healthcare industry accounts for around 4.4% of global carbon emissions, and roughly 80% of that comes from the production, transport, use and disposal of medical supplies. Change is now essential, not just for environmental impact but also long-term business survival.

In this article, we’ll look at how the MedTech sector is shifting to create a more sustainable future.

If your CAD system is slow, has a tendency to crash under pressure or makes simple changes painful, it’s time to move on. Creo is the design professional’s choice for stable, fast and smart design. Built on 35 years of experience, Creo helps engineers and manufacturers turn ideas into products more efficiently than ever. 

In this article, we’ll share eight ways Creo keeps ahead of the design curve.

In almost every industry, sustainability has become a defining challenge. Automotive, MedTech and aerospace companies face pressure to cut emissions, reduce waste, and use resources more responsibly.
