Top 5 Questions to Ask When Evaluating IIOT Technology Solutions

After extensive research and analysis with leading industry manufacturers, machine builders and end users, we have compiled the Top 5 Questions to Ask When Evaluating an IIOT Solution.

Augmented Intelligence in Machine Vision - is Furthering Human Intelligence More Effective Than Replacing It?

Augmented intelligence is similar to artificial intelligence in that it uses machine learning algorithms to enhance defect detection. However, instead of aiming to replace human intelligence, augmented intelligence aims to build upon it.

Robotics In Manufacturing: Threat or Opportunity?

The use of robotics in manufacturing has grown consistently over the past decade. A recent report from the Association for Advancing Automation revealed that North America saw a record in robot sales in 2022, with the number of robots ordered up 11% from the previous year.

Five Ways Visual AI Increases Profitability in Manufacturing

The problem with traditional surveillance camera systems is that they are typically used only passively or reactively, i.e., video images are inconsistently viewed and-more often than not-after a safety, security, or quality-related event has taken place.

Machine Shop Robots Get Real

To better understand the benefits of cobot automation and how it works on the shop floor, we spoke to two leading providers of automated tools to small shops targeting two of the most time consuming and difficult to staff processes, quality control and welding.

Automated Support Removal & Finishing for Metal AM - Robots vs CNC

This article will address the transition to automated support removal (and finishing) solutions and consider the advantages and disadvantages of using CNC systems versus the versatility and reliability of robots.

It's All Connected: Care, Collaboration, and the Cloud

When it comes to MedTech, data is the gamechanger. Whether it is patient outcomes or manufacturing excellence, data holds the key to a new era in manufacturing - and with it, the Cloud. It is the future of MedTech.

Could Energy-Harvesting Technology Power IoT Devices of the Future?

It's particularly challenging to be too reliant on battery-powered IoT devices in industries like manufacturing and logistics. Many factories now have 24/7 operations, meaning there are no feasible downtime periods for recharging.

Predictive Quality Analytics in Manufacturing: How AI and Machine Learning are Transforming the Industry

With predictive analytics quality management, manufacturers may now identify and avoid quality issues before they arise by utilizing cutting-edge technology like AI and machine learning (ML), which has significantly improved productivity and profitability.

The 8 Wastes of Lean Manufacturing

The lean manufacturing methodology chiefly revolves around minimizing production times and raising efficiency by eliminating waste. In this post, we go through the 8 principal wastes in lean manufacturing and see how manufacturing software can help to address them.

Refurbishing Instead of Replacing

With cutting rings, a shearing tool removes the worn edges before they are built back up with 3D printing. Finally, the cutting rings are machined to the final shape.

Understanding the Role of Machine Vision in Industry 4.0

Today it is being applied to diverse areas such as monitoring processes for predictive maintenance, and robotic guidance that makes it possible for robots to safely work with and respond to human interactions.

Strategies for Optimizing Supply Chain with Automation

The pandemic brought supply chain to the forefront, leading companies to seek AI, analytics, and automation solutions for efficiency and meeting demand. Machine Learning predicts demand and AI/automation boosts quality and monitors events.

One Sweet Machine

From candy to coffee beans, AD Process Equipment's confectionery equipment applies coatings that make food taste better. NORD DRIVESYSTEMS helps them do so more efficiently.

Successful Conversion of a Vehicle Assembly With Electric Monorail System

The challenges that arose during the course of the project and how they were overcome are reported by the departments involved. The end result was a system with brilliant production performance.
