7 Reasons Cloud Data is Driving the Future of Auto Manufacturing
Storing and analyzing auto manufacturing data in the cloud has several advantages automakers can't afford to miss. Here's a closer look at these benefits and why cloud data will drive the future of auto manufacturing.
Waste not, want not - rapid identification of metals in scrap
Handheld devices, such as XRF analyzers, offer recyclers tools to rapidly and accurately determine the composition and grade of incoming scrap. This eliminates the need to depend on traditional verification methods such as spark or chemical tests.
The "Most Expensive Software" Holding Our Factories Back
The industry's reliance on cumbersome tech to drive manufacturing operations (masked as "customized just for you") - which costs millions of dollars, and in many cases, takes years to install - is not made with mid-sized factories in mind.
Foundations for Success In Industrial Automation: A Guide for Small to Medium Manufacturers, Part II
Once the objective has been established, a team has been assembled and management has bought into the initiative, it's time to evaluate which part of your operation to automate first. While there are many factors to consider, here are a few recommendations:
Using AI to Fill Blind Spots and Revolutionize Manufacturing Processes
One of the biggest pain points in the manufacturing industry is that most processes are not instrumented, resulting in upwards of 75% of digital blind spots. This lack of visibility on the shop floor leaves manufacturers without a complete data picture.

The International Manufacturing Technology Show offers an opportunity to discover unexpected solutions at more than 1,500 booths, including more than 65 first-time exhibitors offering innovative solutions.
Why More Manufacturers Will Turn to No-Code Platforms in 2024
What used to be exclusively the domain of software developers, programmers and IT teams is now accessible to just about anyone who has some experience with if/then logic and drag-and-drop design tools like PowerPoint.
Foundations for Success In Industrial Automation: A Guide for Small to Medium Manufacturers
While automation has become increasingly within reach, it can still be overwhelming for many manufacturers. Before starting their first project with the technology, manufacturers must take some essential steps to lay the foundation for success and yield long-term benefits.
A Culture of Proactive Compliance
After establishing a compliance team, the reality of just how big a task this was set in. "As we started tackling it, first you get a couple of questions, then you get 20 questions, and then you realize this could be a full-time job, more than a full-time job.
More assembly processes in a smaller space and using less energy
The market for electronic controllers for vehicles is growing. The driving forces are electrification and the increasing number of assistant systems. However, this does not change the competitive pressure to which manufacturers are exposed.
