A band of “brothers” is easing the path to badly needed renewable energy systems in the vast remote lands of Argentina and neighboring Uruguay.
LIMS—the Low Investment Manufacturing System—is an unassuming little box consisting of a computer with proprietary Solution Engine software and an I/O hub that plugs into a standard outlet. When wired at the edge of a piece of production equipment, it becomes a simple solution for collecting and sharing complex sensor-derived data.
A new drill from Ceratizit improved hole quality and positioning in critical parts made by LaserWeld.
While it is typically up to the design engineers or the customer to specify the materials needed for a part, sometimes even materials within specs seem just a little more difficult to machine.
How flexible manufacturing systems (FMS) can be extended to do more.
New ERP solutions refute the software’s "complex and unwieldy" reputation.
Includes new functions for efficient electrical and automation design of industrial equipment
Safran Landing Systems needed to ramp up capacity while maintaining the highest standards of accuracy and repeatability. More automation of its parts inspection process was the solution.
Supply-chain stresses are especially troublesome to the aerospace industry and its Tier suppliers. It’s critical that manufacturers in this industry attain a comprehensive understanding of their vulnerabilities.
NASA HUNCH (High School Students United with NASA to Create Hardware) was founded by Stacy Hale at NASA’s Johnson Space Center. The HUNCH hardware program charges students with machining components for lockers on the International Space Station (ISS).
