While EDMs offer the benefits of holding tight tolerances, working on nearly any metal, and being well suited for delicate or fragile parts, knowledgeable operators for the machines are increasingly hard to find and robots can’t always fill the gap. Automated processes in the machines, newer designs and features of Industry 4.0 are helping to solve the problem.

Adam Hansel, chief systems and sales officer, DMG Mori (Hoffman Estates, IL) sums it up perfectly: “Go into any shop. Ask them if they want to automate. The answer is yes. 100%.”

To run factories at optimal efficiency, plant managers need to mine real-time shop-floor operational data as fast as possible, to quickly determine where and when any manufacturing process bottlenecks occur. With today’s shop-floor data management software and related hardware solutions, manufacturers can leverage more key production performance data than ever in order to fine-tune their manufacturing processes.

The classic manufacturing conundrum is how to make products quicker, cheaper, and better.

The Metal Removal pavilion at IMTS features automated technologies cojoined to make better parts.

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

The combination of AI with IIoT delivers intelligent, connecting systems that can self-correct and self-heal themselves.

Smart mechatronics offers greater intelligence, more efficient operation and a modular approach to delivering complete systems.

As manufacturing continues to return to the United States, Polk County plays a key role in attracting new companies to the area, offering reasonably priced land, tax incentives and a strong talent pipeline – all in a location where people want to live.
