On day two of DriveWorks World 2025, we delivered another full program of live stream sessions, sharing technical updates, expert insights, and how manufacturers use DriveWorks technology. The live implementation team shared their progress with attendees at several check-in points throughout the day, culminating in the result of all their work over the last two days, an online custom gate configurator.
One of the goals of DriveWorks World is to bring together our international audience of users and resellers. Seeing so much positive interaction in the live chat demonstrated that this has been achieved, and continues to be an integral part of the event. Providing an opportunity for users to share their DriveWorks insight and experience is part of what makes DriveWorks World a success.
If you missed any of the sessions just head to the DriveWorks World event app to see the recording of today’s live stream broadcast. You’ll also find the recording of the day one live stream broadcast there.
DriveWorks World 2025 day two key takeaways
DriveWorks World 2025 live implementation
The live implementation team completed their work on building an online custom gate configurator.
They shared their approach and progress in more detail at check-in points throughout the day. DriveWorks World attendees had the opportunity, via polls, to tell us what they would like to hear more about at each check-in.
This was a new feature for DriveWorks World 2025 and the feedback has been hugely positive. We plan to share the finished configurator on driveworkslive.com soon.
How manufacturers use DriveWorks
Manufacturers shared how they use DriveWorks technology and the benefits they’ve achieved through design automation and CPQ technology.
GH Cranes, ROSE Systemtechnik, Liftech SA, Redutores (IBR), and Waimea, all use DriveWorks to streamline their processes and produce custom products faster and with greater accuracy.
Seeing how other companies use DriveWorks is a great way for other users to get new ideas for their own implementations. Having the opportunity to ask questions directly to other manufacturers via the live chat was well received by attendees.

Tuning your implementation
