Methods Machine Tools Inc., a supplier of leading-edge precision machine tools and automation solutions, has brought the Nakamura-Tome NT-Flex to the U.S. machine tool market.

While necessity is said to be the mother of invention, the lineage of its virtual twin is decidedly more paternal. Michael Grieves, PhD, aka the father of the digital twin, introduced the concept at an SME conference in 2002. But he started developing the idea nearly 30 years earlier as a means to help a telephone company stop people from digging up phone lines. This practical challenge led him to think about virtual representations of physical objects.

Rootstock Software, a recognized leader in cloud ERP for product-based companies, today announced its acquisition of Praxis Solutions, LLC, a Salesforce consulting and implementation firm with a long-standing partnership with Rootstock. Rootstock is backed by Gryphon Investors, a leading middle-market private investment firm.
