Integrating Heat Pumps in Industrial Processes: 5 Notable Changes
How have heat pumps changed to help manufacturers? What innovations can industry professionals expect? Here's a guide to the evolution of heat pumps and how they affect the modern manufacturing landscape
The necessity of skill building in the manufacturing industry
The shortage of skilled labor is a major hurdle for companies aiming to enhance their automation processes through superior design and execution. The resulting delays and errors can incur unnecessary costs and loss of flexibility.
Why Automated Optical Inspection Is a Winner in PCB Quality Control
Excelling in PCB quality control is a meaningful way to maintain competitiveness despite these conditions. Many decision-makers have increasingly invested in automated optical inspection (AOI) at their facilities. This approach leads to numerous benefits.
The Future of Computer Aided Manufacturing & Fabrication
Playing a key role in ensuring that automation is incorporated into the fabrication process helps to keep things moving along as quickly and efficiently as possible for manufacturing businesses around the world.
Protecting Your Equipment in the Digital Era
This digital integration also brings challenges like data breaches and malware. Keeping these systems secure and updated is crucial for uninterrupted and efficient production in today's fast-paced industrial landscape.
Manufacturing the future: How plants can harness the power of AI
AI can augment human labor and decision making at every stage of the manufacturing process. It can manage logistics, predict maintenance needs and ensure products meet quality standards.
This 3D printer can watch itself fabricate objects
Computer vision enables contact-free 3D printing, letting engineers print with high-performance materials they couldn't use before.
Steel King Selective Racking Systems to Bring New Efficiencies to North Pole Warehouse and Fulfillment Centers
A one-of-a-kind fulfillment center with a unique timeline for picking, packing, and magically delivering orders worldwide within a 12-hour timeframe, has selected Steel King for the new selective pallet racking system for its North Pole warehouse and distribution facilities.
Heat pump with heat exchanger instead of electric heatings Saving 169 MWh of electricity per year
To exploit the existing potential in the cleaning of engine components, a premium car manufacturer replaced the electric water heating system in its Austrian works with a heat pump. This has resulted in electricity savings of approx. 70 percent per year in this process step.
Purdue Polytechnic to dedicate nation's largest smart manufacturing ecosystem for engineering technology
This interdisciplinary program synergizes science, engineering, information systems and computing, focusing on manufacturing's next evolutionary step called Industry 4.0. The new facility ecosystem also has wide-ranging applications, opening up potential curriculum expansion.
Making the case for Augmented Reality
The market size for AR applications was estimated to be $15.2B in 2021 and growing to over $90B by 2028. This shows clearly that companies are investing heavily in this transformative technology but why is it such a key innovation and how can you make best use of it?
AM Research Publishes In-Depth Market Study on Additive Manufacturing for Military and Defense; Estimates $0.3B in Direct DoD Spend in 2023, Growing to $1.8B in 2032
The comprehensive study sheds light on the rapid evolution and potential impact of additive manufacturing technologies on the defense and military landscape.
Automation Depends on People
With each new innovation in society, we see corresponding headlines and public concern about how that innovation will be responsible for job loss. This has been true of the printing press, the automobile, and the computer.
5 Security Risks of Rushed Digital Transformation
Undergoing a digital transformation is necessary for many manufacturing businesses, especially when they must stay competitive in challenging market conditions. However, if the responsible parties rush things, they'll increase the likelihood of several security risks.
5 Strategies for the Long-Term Preservation of Heavy Machinery
Over time, heavy machinery endures wear and tear before eventually breaking down. While replacing this equipment is a must, manufacturers can extend the life of their heavy machinery. Here are five strategies for long-term preservation.
