PTC Introduces Orbit Asset Intelligence Platform for Manufacturers

Jun 12, 2026
PTC has launched PTC Orbit, a cloud-based asset intelligence system that connects engineering and maintenance data across enterprise systems using AI. The platform consolidates asset information and provides predictive insights to improve product reliability and service readiness.

PTC announced in a press release the launch of PTC Orbit, a cloud native asset intelligence platform designed to unify data across product lifecycle systems for manufacturers. The platform connects PLM, ERP, CRM, IoT, EAM, and FSM systems into a single record that reflects the as maintained state of each asset.

PTC Orbit applies AI to make asset information accessible and actionable across engineering, quality, and service teams. It consolidates fragmented asset data and creates a unified view that supports accurate tracking after products ship. The system helps organizations maintain consistent asset visibility across departments.

The platform includes AI functions that identify service patterns, calculate asset health scores, and forecast maintenance needs by asset group, region, or account. It also offers an AI interface called the AI canvas, which surfaces insights dynamically based on user context.

Tensordyne Napier: What If One Rack Could Do the Work of Nine?

Tensordyne

This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
