Join Siemens at IMTS 2026: turning Industrial AI into real manufacturing outcomes that take flight

At IMTS 2026, Siemens will show how a connected digital thread can help bridge those gaps, bringing together software, automation, operational intelligence, and AI to help manufacturers move faster and make better decisions across the entire manufacturing lifecycle. From idea to production to ongoing optimization, visitors will experience how information can flow seamlessly across teams, systems, and machines, creating a more connected and adaptive manufacturing environment. 

Modern Machine Shop features how Willis Custom Yachts achieves 5X productivity with Siemens NX CAD/CAM

Modern Machine Shop, one of the manufacturing industry’s leading publications, how a luxury custom-yacht building company, Willis Custom Yachts, designs and builds custom luxury sportfishing yachts with Siemens NX CAD/CAM software. Because each yacht is uniquely designed, the company must manage constant design updates and highly complex parts throughout the manufacturing process. Their legacy CAD and CAM systems operated independently, creating communication gaps that increased programming time, rework, and the risk of costly errors.

From agile to autonomous – building adaptive production with digital twins and industrial AI 

Manufacturing has always been defined by constraints: material limits, workforce capacity, supply chain reliability. The most competitive manufacturers are now doing something different, they are redesigning the system that generates constraints in the first place. This is the core discussion Zvi Feuer, Senior Vice President of Digital Manufacturing, and Mark Hindsbo, Head of Operations Software at Siemens Digital Industries Software, made in their recent keynote on building adaptive production with the digital twin and industrial AI. The path from where most manufacturers are to where they need to be is neither simple nor instantaneous. But it is, for the first time, within reach.

Willis Custom Yachts: Manufacturing sea masterpieces with Siemens NX CAD/CAM [VIDEO]

Willis Custom Yachts, based in Stuart, Florida, crafts bespoke luxury sportfishing yachts, blending traditional artistry with advanced digital manufacturing. They specialize in high-performance vessels, maintaining tolerances as tight as 0.008 inches across highly curved surfaces. Faced with the unique challenge of producing one-of-a-kind vessels with sweeping curvatures and frequent customer-driven changes, Willis needed a unified CAD-to-CAM workflow. They found their answer in Siemens NX CAD/CAM software. By integrating design and manufacturing into a single, continuous digital environment, Willis Custom Yachts achieved a remarkable transformation.
