VIMANA Partners with Autodesk

VIMANA (Berkeley, CA) has been selected by Autodesk Inc. (San Francisco, CA) as the analytics platform that is the enabling technology for their newly announced Fusion Production software. This partnership leverages the respective strengths of both companies: VIMANA analytics and Autodesk engineering planning and design, integrated into one system for users. Fusion Production software combines machine monitoring, production scheduling and job tracking using cloud computing for the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) for smart manufacturing.

Factory production managers can harness the data gathered through production processes and make it visible in real-time across the extended supply chain. Designers can view downstream processes to improve design for manufacturability. Fusion Production software connects people, data, and machines by providing manufacturing and operations teams real-time visibility and instant access to production data in a single tool to improve productivity and enable agile response to demand. “We are excited to be working with them to combine technologies that yield a strategic, well differentiated IIoT solution for contract manufacturers,” stated Rick Moran, the president and chief executive officer of VIMANA. “The future of manufacturing is dependent on leveraging strategic partners and is ecosystem driven. Their new Fusion Production software does both, digitizing the workflow from design to manufacturing and providing data driven insight to improve operational performance and create competitive advantage for their users.”

“Collaborating with them will enable us to provide our users with leading-edge manufacturing analytics for real-time visibility and insights into production performance to gain operational excellence,” added Swen Niebann, the business line manager for production at Autodesk. “Users are looking for robust data analytics and a unified workflow, from CAM through production to the finished product.”
