Hexagon launches HxGN SDx2
Hexagon, the global leader in digital reality solutions, combining sensor, software and autonomous technologies, today announced the launch of HxGN SDx2, a cloud-native, multi-tenant SaaS solution designed to deliver a connected, insightful digital backbone for industrial facilities. HxGN SDx2 joins data, work processes and information systems to deliver contextualized, role-based insights throughout the asset lifecycle – transforming industrial projects and facilities into resilient, efficient and safe operations.
Enterprises with significant physical operations and industrial assets – such as energy companies, pharmaceutical manufacturers, semiconductor companies and process manufacturers – face substantial challenges related to aging infrastructure, legacy systems, cybersecurity threats, patchwork data strategies and rising maintenance costs.
Similarly, the engineering and construction firms supporting asset owners are challenged to deliver industrial projects profitably, safely and sustainably on schedule amid rising complexity.
As demands for digital transformation and ESG compliance increase, so does the complexity of achieving optimal business operations. To navigate this challenging landscape successfully, industrial enterprises require a holistic solution like HxGN SDx2. This platform integrates project and asset operational data to create a digital twin that improves the comprehensive management of the industrial facility lifecycle.
HxGN SDx2 is a scalable, extensible solution that connects across various industrial environments and empowers enterprises to unlock the full potential of the digital thread. By adopting a data-agnostic approach, it seamlessly integrates with existing systems and workflows, facilitating data aggregation and contextualization, analysis and continuous improvement of assets while extending the value of prior technology investments.
“Industrial enterprises face numerous operational challenges as they digitalize physical operations to enhance intelligence, efficiency and resilience,” said Mattias Stenberg, President, Hexagon’s Asset Lifecycle Intelligence division. “With HxGN SDx2, we are transforming the way industrial enterprises manage their assets throughout their entire lifecycle. This solution is pivotal to our Smart Digital Reality™ vision, enabling organizations to integrate new and existing workflows smoothly, maintain data integrity and achieve material gains in efficiency and sustainability.”
HxGN SDx2 provides customers with significant reductions in project cost and schedule. Its real-time data access minimizes search time and directly supports enhanced engineering design quality, improved safety and boosted operational efficiency. Key HxGN SDx2 features that support these benefits include:
- Early Issue Detection: Access to data and real-time insights reduces unplanned downtime and maintenance costs, while integrated engineering visualization tools foster seamless communication and coordination among stakeholders. This ensures projects are completed on time and within budget.
- Info Map: The ability to visualize comprehensive, connected asset-related information enhances accessibility and improves operational efficiency.
- Visual Intelligence: Moving from document-centric information management to object-level data allows users to leverage visual intelligence reports where continuously updated 2D and 3D designs are viewed simultaneously.
- Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Capabilities: Automating processes and data collection and management reduces reliance on manual efforts and drives operational efficiency gains throughout the organization.
HxGN SDx2 is at the heart of Hexagon’s Smart Digital Reality vision, offering a comprehensive view of industrial facilities and infrastructure. It provides deep insights into project and asset status and performance, identifying challenges and opportunities for improving profitability and sustainability.
