Part 2 of our AMW 2025 series dives into the digital backbone of manufacturing – from product design and simulation to warehouse intelligence and additive manufacturing.

This episode highlights how Australian manufacturers are embracing software, data, and next-gen production tools to stay competitive.

Hear from:

• Matt Schimmelbusch from Emona on the full spectrum of 3D printing—from entry-level FDM to industrial metal and carbon fiber solutions

• Bob Bentley from Core Additive on cost-effective pellet-based 3D printing and the evolution of production-ready additive use

• Mark from Central Innovation on cloud PDM, DriveWorks, and Max Link integration for design-to-ERP connectivity

• Bruce Pollock from Aspect PT on bridging ERP and the shop floor with real-time MES and OEE insights

• Gernot Keckeis from CAD-IT Australia on the Tulip no-code platform enabling frontline operations and digital work instructions

• Keanan Granland from Monash Innovation Labs on student-driven industrial R&D and Australia’s first university-based train tech team

• Sebastien Bouthillette from 3DLogistiX on a 3D warehouse management system with a digital twin UI for smarter pick, pack, and ship

• Amit, Sean & Lenny from Hexagon on end-to-end quality control, reverse engineering, and global digital twin innovation

Explore how digitisation is reshaping everything from prototyping and planning to production and performance – and why Australia’s manufacturing future is smart, connected, and ready to scale.
