Updates

  • 2026-11-10 · Edited before publication: Raw materials & energy is the wrong topic for an equipment order adding capacity. The claim about lifecycle automation being 'increasingly bundled' is a generalisation without support.
  • 2026-11-10 · Edited before publication: Grounded. 'Raw materials & energy' does not fit a machine order, so the topics are cut to Operations & Footprint.
