Robots simply are not used as widely as they could be, due to persistent barriers.
EV manufacturers must overcome a unique set of challenges to meet future customer expectations. Among them is the challenge to create innovative designs that meet safety requirements, performance criteria and keep costs down in the face of growing competition and a widening skills gap.
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.
Applications and new players are on the rise, but challenges remain—including financial concerns.
Our focus has always been on helping manufacturers improve quality, productivity and visibility. In Sight Machine 2.0, among other things, we’ve added a set of enhancements to improve visibility.
Additive manufacturing lets companies think “outside the box.” Engineers can now start to look at a part without restrictions on size, shape or material. Instead of taking 15 different CNC milled parts and brazing them together, these companies have reimagined the part entirely—to be built as one part.
Resurrecting Lost Parts: 3D Scanning's Game-Changing Solution
Manufacturers still haven’t reached the expected levels of success with Industry 4.0. Companies that jumped at the promise of Industry 4.0, adopting new technology and connecting more devices, did so without defining goals for these projects.
A professor, who visited IMTS in September, discusses trends in machine tools.
The industry’s fastest growing firms are leveraging new artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain and Internet of Things (IoT) solutions to transform supply chains, transport and logistics. Reliance on paper forms and clashing systems are giving way to improved transparency across the value chain.
