AI already helps individual factories improve production, safety, efficiency and other metrics while lowering costs. Marrying AI and cloud technology can supercharge those benefits.
Blended learning relies on a combination of in-person classes, self-learning and interactive online tools.
I first wrote about substitute skin in 1993. And at the time, it seemed that stand-in organs—at scale—were imminent.
How four intersecting trends in Manufacturing are changing the role of the technology supplier.
Sandvik signed an agreement to acquireCNC Software Inc., the company behind Mastercam, the most widely used Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) brand in the industry.
An engine manufacturer discovers there is a way to reduce 50 billion data points to 2 billion—a reasonable number from which the foundation for machine learning can be built.
The whole of manufacturing is moving toward a leaner and more agile future enabled by additive manufacturing. But this change requires continuous and unrelenting innovation to be able to do things not done before.
HoloLens 2, Microsoft’s second-generation, mixed-reality smart glasses is a big part of why augmented reality in assembly has become ready for prime time.
Sandvik AB has agreed with Battery Ventures to acquire U.S.-based Cambrio, which has a portfolio in CAD/CAM software for manufacturing industries.
The increased use of CT scanning for metal powder bed fusion parts is usually associated with high-value parts and elevated quality requirements. There are increased requests for CT scanning on parts made of engineering-grade polymers like PEEK, PEKK or ULTEM and for fiber-reinforced composites like Nylon 12 CF.
