Micro components continue to shrink in size, demanding ever-greater precision and improved handling of parts with sub-micron-sized features. New approaches in micro machining technology include higher-precision systems from traditional micro machining developers, as well as techniques using additive manufacturing processes and semiconductor wafer-scale technology on the smallest of micro parts.

Modern manufacturing is rapidly adopting model-based definition (MBD). When employing an MBD strategy, the CAD model becomes more than the nominal to which all parts are measured and inspected against. MBD keeps the all-important digital thread intact—from design to manufacturing to inspection and quality reporting.

The best way to solve the skills gap is to ignite the already existing and yet dormant fuel of curiosity inside of young minds.

To raise the bar on the status quo in unlimited hydroplanes, Ellstrom Racing started Five-Axis Industries, which in the beginning was essentially a hobby shop specializing in five-axis machining to make difficult-to-manufacture parts from hard metals, including titanium and stainless alloys.

This year’s RAPID + TCT show signaled a new wave of users, with 35 percent of the audience being new to adopting additive manufacturing technologies.

Whether transmitted through wires or the air, data collected from older factory devices can help a shop owner make smarter business decisions.

3 Simple Steps to Incorporate Cobots

Hopefully, your manufacturing operations are like shooting fish in a barrel. But without robust machine monitoring and the IIoT, you’re more likely going to be shooting in the dark.

The robotics and machine automation supplier says its new cobots can handle payloads of up to 12 kg.
