Hatz Engines - Case Study from CSP US Inc.
Before the introduction of CSP software, there was no integrated control of workflows, and the potential for process optimization remained untapped. Production relied on manual coordination, which led to efficiency losses and unnecessary error rates.
How Flying S is Turning Data into a Competitive Advantage
As automation, multi-axis machining, and lights-out operations become the norm, shops are realizing that the real advantage doesn’t come from just running more machines; it comes from understanding how they’re running.
Manufacturing's AI Reality Check: Why Governance Is the Missing Link
Governance is the architecture that transforms AI experiments into enterprise assets. Without it, even successful models become liabilities.
What's Your Factory's Lean Maturity Score?
Many factories run 5S events, collect defect data, or deploy quality management systems - yet still face recurring bottlenecks, waste, and variation. Why? Because tools alone don't make a Lean enterprise - culture does.
Sustaining a Positive Manufacturing Workplace in an Evolving AI World
If businesses approach the transition to an AI-enhanced workplace strategically, it can lead to a workforce that is invested, outcome-oriented, and well-positioned for a successful future.
The Next Industrial Epoch is Here: Why Acting Now is a Strategic Imperative for Manufacturers
The convergence of technological maturity, proven financial returns, and a strategic need for resilient domestic production has created a generational opportunity, and the window to act is now.
Why Automation, Not Wafer Size, Determines Semiconductor Fab Cycle Time
New 200 mm capacity is often built from scratch or heavily refurbished, making it easier to apply the same automation patterns used in 300 mm fabs. The result is convergence; wafer diameter still affects output per lot, but it no longer indicates the level of automation.
