Why don’t more manufacturers in the United States use smart manufacturing technologies like AI and machine learning to reduce waste, achieve predictive maintenance and enhance their automation systems? Five CESMII roundtable panelists share their insights.
Light vehicles will be so different by 2035, experts aren’t even sure we’ll still call them “cars.” Perhaps “personal mobility devices.” More important will be the radical changes to the manufacturing of automotive parts.
New-to-market REcreate redefines reverse engineering with a fresh, flexible design approach.
Aluminum and its alloys are highly popular in the machining industry for many reasons. Did you know it is the most abundant metal on Earth?
Claudia Jarrett, U.S. country manager at automation parts supplier EU Automation, explains why robots are more than affordable for small and mid-sized enterprises (SMEs).
Formlabs, known for its line of desktop stereolithography (SLA) printers, is looking to expand its 3D printing reach with availability of its new Fuse 1 benchtop industrial selective laser sintering (SLS) 3D printer. Under development for nearly seven years, the Fuse 1 marks a notable change for Formlabs as they expand into a new additive manufacturing process.
Dedicated in-house labs create and optimize laser welding processes for electric motors and batteries.
The new material is aimed at streamlining production processes and ultimately reducing costs.
Augmented reality makes new robot startups easier and faster, the company says.
A vast majority of manufacturers agree that robotic automation is the best solution to reduce costs, increase productivity, address labor shortages, and aid in recruitment and retention.
