Larger manufacturing enterprises have benefitted from smart-manufacturing innovations while smaller manufacturers have lagged behind—but that is changing.
Metal diffusion bonding is an essential joining method for achieving a high-purity interface when two similar metals require superior structural integrity. The process involves applying high temperature, and pressure to metals mated together in a hot press causes the atoms on solid metallic surfaces to intersperse and bond.
Key steps are virtual twins and real relationships.
While fossil fuels dominate the energy market, expect a new mix of parts as renewable energy and EVs grow in market share.
A technological transformation at renewable energy firm Siemens Gamesa will enable real-time reporting and digital enabling of its workforce.
New report from Claroty researchers finds latest ICS vulnerabilities most prevalent in energy, critical manufacturing, and water & wastewater sectors of critical infrastructure
When designers at Siemens started using virtual reality (VR) to quickly evaluate early-stage ideas, the usually slow and costly design-and-iteration process went from days and hours to minutes.
The world of quality measurement devices and software continues to expand, and IMTS years are especially exciting times. If there is a theme in the many offerings—new devices, new software—it might be how quality devices are continuing to burrow their way into the heart of manufacturing on the shop floor.
Smart factory systems benefit from improved technologies, as well as proven applications.
Flexibility has come to automation, perhaps as never before. And for industries that require precision machining, assembly, and measurement, automation technologies have never been more available.
