Hexagon AB announced the launch of Nexus. Nexus is an open, flexible, future-ready digital reality platform purposely built for the discrete manufacturing ecosystem – from aerospace, automotive, and electronics to consumer products and general manufacturing. For the first time, stakeholders across engineering, manufacturing and quality disciplines can easily connect, collaborate and exchange data in real-time to accelerate new and innovative approaches to making higher-quality products more efficiently and sustainably.
Nexus is a one-stop shop for innovation and a better way of working – connecting people, software and machines across all manufacturing disciplines in real-time to enable data and information sharing in a secure environment. The resulting feedback loops free multi-disciplinary teams to evaluate the impact of their choices earlier, unlocking previously unavailable insights that foster ideas and iterative problem-solving across the product lifecycle.
Co-engineered with Microsoft using the latest cloud technologies, Nexus gives customers choice and control, connecting to the cloud and any on-premise systems they use while protecting IP at every step. The open platform enables users to explore and discover new tools, training, and support across an unparalleled portfolio of software and hardware from Hexagon and many other suppliers.
Personalized interactions enable users to dictate workflows and technology choices, connecting only what they need from Hexagon’s extensive manufacturing portfolio with partner and third-party tools and technologies. These include the manufacturing execution system (MES) of Oqton and the Altium 365 platform from electronic design automation (EDA) software company, Altium.
All products “powered by Nexus” enable improved data exchange and access to its core capabilities, such as AI, visualization, and workflow orchestration, delivering greater value to the solutions customers use daily. The apps and solutions built on Nexus, whether by Hexagon or third-party developers, further enable users to build increasingly autonomous and sustainable workflows.
