FactoryTalk Design Workbench: Next-Gen Programming for Micro Control Systems (opens the original)
Read excerpt
FactoryTalk Design Workbench is Rockwell Automation’s next-generation programming and configuration software for micro control systems and Micro800 controllers. Specifically, Version 1 supports Rockwell’s Micro810 and newer Micro800 Lx0E controllers and has Class 1 connectivity to PowerFlex 520 series and Kinetix 5100 drives. Ultimately, FactoryTalk Design Workbench is intended to replace the company’s older Connected Components Workbench. It enables faster download speeds over its predecessor a
Harnessing AI and Cloud Technology for Advanced Multiphysics Simulations (opens the original)
Read excerpt
SimScale is a cloud-based multiphysics CAE platform that runs in a browser, allowing engineers to set up, run, analyze and collaborate on simulations from any device. To make simulation more accessible to non-specialists, the application offers Engineering AI, an agentic engineering workflow that orchestrates the analysis process. In practice, that means automating individual simulation tasks like mesh setup or solver configuration. In addition, an engineering team can define a design challenge
CAE Automation: From AI Prompt to Simulation (opens the original)
Read excerpt
According to Peter Mortier, CEO of HelloTriangle, FEA, CFD and CAE applications in general suffer from a serious productivity problem. As capable as solvers and post-processors have become over decades of development, they still require engineers to perform hours of tedious button clicking to prep CAD geometry before any genuine analysis gets done. “For FEA/CFD engineers, the primary challenge is not running the solver itself; it is the significant amount of repetitive, manual work surrounding s
MIT-Developed VLA Framework Cuts Robot Execution Latency by 11 Times (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Researchers at MIT announced the development of a novel physical AI method that reduces the reaction latency of Vision Language Action (VLA) inference models by up to 11.8 times, but maintains high-precision, the researchers say. Called VLASH, the physical AI approach allows VLA models, such as Physical Intelligence’s Pi Zero (π0.5) and NVIDIA’s Gr00t, to perform high-speed, high-precision tasks such a playing Ping Pong or Whack-a-Mole. For context, VLA models, while prized for enabling a wide r
The Data Must Flow (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This article was featured in Machine Design’s Automation & Robotics Takeover Week (July 13-17, 2026). For more than a decade, IIoT proponents and vendors have mounted a concerted push for manufacturers to replace their traditional clipboards, spreadsheets and sneakernet USB drives with an efficient, fully digital network designed to connect, collect, store and channel operational data up and down the Purdue model. But building that infrastructure proved a daunting and expensive endeavor, especia
