When manufacturers talk about AI, the conversation usually starts with use cases and ends with integration complexity.When manufacturers talk about AI, the conversation usually starts with use cases and ends with integration complexity. In this interview, Adam Gąsiorek, CTO of TT PSC, and Ayush Tiwari from Velotic cut through the noise, sharing how a semiconductor manufacturer turned ignored process signals into a quality breakthrough, and why a manufacturing co-pilot can be built faster than most teams expect.

Industrial organizations are no longer asking whether AI belongs in asset-intensive operations; they are asking how to execute. How do we move from fragmented asset data and isolated pilots to repeatable enterprise-wide value? How do we ensure AI is trusted, adopted, and embedded into day-to-day decision-making?  PTCs Orbit was built to answer those questions. As PTC’s latest […]

In September 2025, Jaguar Land Rover shut down production across the UK, Slovakia, and Brazil for five weeks after a ransomware attack. Reuters reported losses of around £50 million a week, with 33,000 staff sent home and hundreds of suppliers unable to operate. The intrusion started in IT, but what stopped production was how deeply […]

How AWS’s AI-Driven Development Lifecycle (AI-DLC) defines an AI-Native methodology for fully integrated AI capabilities 

Industrial AI is moving beyond chatbots and dashboards toward systems that understand the physical world of factories. From spatial computing and reality capture to cloud HPC and wearable devices, Physical AI is redefining how industrial environments are designed, operated and optimized. This article explores why the next generation of industrial competitiveness will depend on combining AI with spatial and operational intelligence.

A typical plant runs controllers, SCADA, a historian and an MES from different vendors, and every connection is a custom integration. OPC UA replaces that patchwork with one secure, self-describing interface between OT and IT. This guide explains what OPC UA is, how it works, how its security model holds up to audit, and how Kepware implements it in production.

A 5-year TCO between Kepware perpetual and subscription is a reasonable starting point. It is not a verdict. The output shifts by 20 to 50 percent on three variables no online calculator asks, and the answer depends on the environment around the licence, not on the spreadsheet alone.

In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, legacy software modernization services have become essential for businesses aiming to maintain a competitive edge. As technology advances, many organizations find themselves tied to outdated systems that no longer meet modern expectations. The question is no longer whether companies should modernize, but what exactly modernization is, why it matters, and how to approach it […]

Kepware Server connects to virtually every PLC, RTU and IIoT device on the plant floor through 150+ certified drivers, exposing the data through a single OPC UA, MQTT or REST interface. This guide walks through the full driver catalogue, the Communication Suites, the Kepware+ enterprise subscription and the configuration steps a system integrator needs to scope and deploy a project.

The upcoming end of support for Oracle Agile PLM in 2027 is driving organizations to reassess their PLM strategy and explore modern alternatives that can support complex supply chains, digital transformation, and long-term innovation goals.

Most Agile PLM users underestimate how much work hides behind a PLM migration. On the surface, it looks like a technical exercise: extract the data, move it to a new system, reconnect integrations, and you are done. In reality, a PLM transition touches some of the most critical processes in the organization – how products […]

Poor UX in corporate systems can cost companies hundreds of thousands – or even millions – each year. Yet most organisations don’t measure these losses. Instead, they are hidden in everyday inefficiencies: extra clicks, unclear workflows, errors and workarounds that scale across the organization.  In many organisations, UX in corporate systems is still treated as secondary to functionality. If a […]
