Eight manufacturing companies, two days in Mannheim, one clear finding: the technology works. The obstacle lies in the data and in the organisation.

From 1 to 3 December 2026, you will find us at VALVE WORLD EXPO in Düsseldorf on the Pepperl+Fuchs stand, Hall 1, Stand B13. We show Neoception AXON, the software that turns existing product data into digital twins based on the Asset Administration Shell.

From 24 to 26 November 2026, we are a co-exhibitor on the stand of the Industrial Digital Twin Association (IDTA) at SPS in Nuremberg, Hall 5, Stand 358. We show how Neoception AXON generates digital twins based on the Asset Administration Shell from existing product data, and we present the PCN Manager for product change notifications.

On 5 and 6 November 2026, the process industry meets at the 89th NAMUR Annual General Meeting at the Dorint Hotel in Neuss. The sponsor is Pepperl+Fuchs, the motto “From Digital Shopfloors to Digital Business Models”. As a company of the Pepperl+Fuchs Group, we contribute the topic of open standards: in the keynote and in the workshop on standardised digital twins on 5 November at 17:30.

With the Event Manager, Neoception brings Product Change Notification to the Neoception® Digital Twin Infrastructure (DTI). It comes in two parts with different roles: the Event Feed is the platform’s notification channel and part of the DTI licence. The PCN Manager is the new companion app in which change notices are created and released, for manufacturers without a suitable change notification process of their own. Both follow the AAS standard rather than a bilateral arrangement with a single target system. That is what this post is about.

How do you show in three minutes what a Digital Material Passport can do? At Bosch Connected World 2026, MHP and Neoception did not build a slide deck. They built a cocktail machine. Every mixed cocktail gets its own digital twin, accessible via QR code.

INNEO and Neoception have signed a letter of intent and are expanding their cooperation. The aim is to help mid-sized manufacturers meet requirements such as the Digital Product Passport. AXON generates Asset Administration Shells automatically and at scale, INNEO connects them to the customer’s PLM landscape.

Version 1.2 of the Neoception® Digital Twin Infrastructure introduces four key updates: external submodel template repositories, full Role-Based Access Control, advanced filtering in data mapping, and multi-connector as a productive core feature. Here’s a closer look at the highlights.

AAS meets DPP: Why standardized digital twins are key to industrial digitalization and how complex IT landscapes can be integrated step by step.

Part 2 shows how Neoception and XITASO turn Digital Twin infrastructure into real-world impact with scalable use cases, fast results, and clear ROI.
