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.
Laser micro-cutting can increase precision and enable contactless cutting for machines, leading to higher-quality products.

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.
We no longer need to accept that it takes a decade to create and make a safe and effective vaccine—thanks in part to smart manufacturing.
Additive manufacturing (AM) once was called “rapid prototyping.” Its earliest forms made prototype parts—and nothing else. However, manufacturers were intrigued by the prospect of using it to make cost-effective metal parts in production. That day is here.
What do you think of when you hear the word factory? Probably some huge space, with machines humming and personnel walking around with notepads in their hands.
