Machina Labs unveils the game-changing Machina Deployable System, a portable robotic marvel combining AI and advanced robotics for digital part formation and cutting, set to revolutionize manufacturing at FABTECH 2023.
Castrol’s SmartControl system is the new way to monitor and manage metalworking fluid (MWF), automatically and in real time.
Hino Motors Manufacturing U.S.A. announces Mr. Davey Jung as the new President and CEO, marking a strategic leadership transition in the commercial truck manufacturing sector.
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.
Why use a metrology device on or near a machine tool? It isn’t just useful for making sure a tool is present or monitoring tools for wear or breakage. On-machine measurement technologies can save time and money, by speeding up processes and eliminating extra personnel, and they are a critical step in the movement towards “lights-out” manufacturing.
Automation development in the aerospace industry has quickened its pace, with the aviation and defense industries attempting to further automate manufacturing processes to meet growing OEM order backlogs and critical aerospace-defense program deadlines.
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.
