In turn, this creates faster pathways to products and helps develop increasingly autonomous workflows. Since Nexus allows manufacturers to build more agile and resilient processes, they are better equipped to respond to change and take advantage of new opportunities. Some of the biggest advantages that Nexus can bring to elevate manufacturing processes include: Faster innovation As a result, they are well-placed to bring their ideas to life faster and produce higher-quality outcomes. Nexus breaks down the barriers that get in the way of solving problems. In addition to connecting technologies, Nexus is also designed to connect people. This enables greater visibility and connectivity across teams since they can better leverage fragmented digital data and gain unprecedented insight. Nexus combines technologies to help develop unique solutions to engineering and manufacturing problems, from concept to delivery. Nexus is an open system designed to connect multiple applications to form workflows that facilitate real-time collaboration, data sharing between different design, simulation and production applications from any vendor. In the coming months we’ll be announcing even more partners and system integrators. These companies are bringing complementary technologies to Nexus, empowering makers with access to a deeper and broader portfolio. These partners already include Microsoft, Altium, CADS Additive, Oqton and Datanomix. With the initial release we are joined by industry leading technology companies that are already using Nexus’s open capabilities to deliver joint solutions to the market.

As a truly open platform Nexus brings so much interconnected functionality it will revolutionise how technology professionals, data professionals, engineers and scientists collaborate and innovate. Addressing this gap was one of the key objectives behind the launch of Nexus.

The existing manufacturing set-ups that have siloed tools, rigid systems and inaccessible data are not suitable to address the manufacturing industry’s needs and pressures. At the same time, the market is demanding more innovation than ever. Rapidly changing customer preferences, advances in technology and a growing focus on sustainability have contributed to the complexity. Over the last few years, complexity in manufacturing has gone up several notches for various reasons.

Nexus is an ecosystem that connects makers around the world with key technology venders, system integrators and Hexagon. Nexus empowers makers with interconnected technologies, tearing down the barriers to innovation, eliminating data silos to supercharge manufacturing for an exciting new future. Nexus is an open digital reality platform for manufacturers which connects people, data and technologies from Hexagon and partner suppliers.
