Here are some trends to look for in additive manufacturing (AM) polymer development in 2023.
The U.S. government is investing billions into semiconductor research, development, and production. What does it mean for manufacturers?
The power of highly functional fabric manufacturing brings new possibilities to life.
Aluminum producer Novelis today formally dedicated its customer solution center in southeastern Michigan.
Should you coat in-house? Factors to consider include costs, supply chain issues and the ability to make proprietary coatings.
US machine shops are potentially underutilizing the machinability of brass by as much as 85 percent in their part processing operations, reports a recent study from the Copper Development Association Inc. (McLean, VA).
In the near absence of academic programs to teach undergraduate engineering students additive manufacturing, a California-based startup has stepped in to help fill the void through internships.
Beware predictions of the demise of any technology. If the early 1920s saw the dawn of the optical comparator, there has been much speculation about its sunset. That was especially true when vision systems started hitting their stride a few years ago. Many could see optical comparators were superfluous with the use of vision systems. Many thought the sunset of optical comparators was imminent. Many were wrong. Why?
Data mining and Big Data are hot topics. Your company develops process mining software; how does it differ from data mining?
Researchers at Penn State University (University Park, PA) have devised a novel method for sintering, a widely used manufacturing process for powdered materials. The new process, which uses much less time and energy than current approaches, could have global implications on manufacturing and energy savings and pave the way for new discoveries.
