How Product Catalog Management Supports Circular Supply Chains in Manufacturing
Most ERP and PLM systems track products only through production and sale, not reuse, refurbishment, or recycling. This fragmentation causes material loss, inefficient remanufacturing, slow reverse logistics, and compliance failures.
Modernizing Capital-Intensive Industries with a Digital Thread
Embracing the idea of a consistent source of information, in context, for all stakeholders, often referred to as a "digital thread," can significantly streamline processes, enhance collaboration, and drive efficiency.
PLM-Based Engineering
Today, engineers have a lot more control over the direction of their products, and PLM is where they reflect these decisions. PLM is the only data repository where someone can get a holistic view of the entire product and its history of changes.
Challenges of PLM Integration
Time to market and innovation issues are only two examples from the long list of the most common challenges even the top manufacturers face. In an effort to solve their problems and optimize their business processes, most manufacturers turn to tailored PLM solutions nowadays.

PI USA - Hexapod for Industrial Alignment
This new compact 6-axis hexapod was designed with 24/7 industrial precision alignment tasks and easy serviceability in mind. It is equipped with absolute encoders (no need for referencing) and motor brakes that automatically engage during a loss of power, for extra safety. Debuting at Photonics West 2025 last month, applications include camera lens alignment, micro assembly, and fiber optical alignment applications.
