The Impact of the IoT on Energy Efficiency (Part 3 of 5)
One distinct benefit of the IoT is that it's generally available to every area of the economy, and this particularly holds true for energy efficiency improvements.
When Should You Re-Manufacture or Refurbish Equipment?
In most cases, re-manufactured hardware is better because its closer to new. That doesnt mean refurbished hardware is bad, just that you should remain aware of the differences.
America Makes, Laser Institute of America, Fab Foundation and Fab Lab Hub Collaborate in 2018 Digital Fabrication Conference
Thought leaders in 3D Printing, Smart Manufacturing, New Collar Workforce training, STEM education and Entrepreneurship explore how new digital fabrication tools like 3D Printing are changing the world
Combining augmented reality, 3D printing and a robotic arm to prototype in real time
Brian Heater for TechCrunch: Using an augmented reality headset and two controllers, the designer builds a 3D model using a CAD (computer-aided design) program. A robotic arm then goes to work constructing a skeletal model using a simple plastic depositing 3D printer
TSN in my Network: Why, What and How?
Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) offers network convergence and will enable effective implementations of Industrial Internet-of-the-Things set-ups.
Five Myths About Robotic Vision Systems
An efficient manufacturer must get products in and out of a cell quickly and reliably. Vision systems paired with robotic operations can put an operation at a competitive advantage by providing opportunities to make more and streamline the process
Organic molecules enable 3D printing of nanoscale metal structures
The Engineer: Researchers at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) have used a new 3D printing technique to produce complex nanoscale metal structures that are orders of magnitude smaller than previously possible.
Shanghai instals 3D bus shelters
Cao Chen via The Telegarph: Shanghai has installed a set of 3D printed bus shelters, believed to be the worlds first, to serve a bus route in suburban Jinshan district
The Manufacturing Capitals of the World
RS Components have created an interactive graphic, The Manufacturing Capitals of the World. which reveals who came out on top in 2010, 2016 and who is expected to dominate the sector in 2020.
Robot welding: More efficiency for programming and equipment fabrication
Crown relies on FASTSUITE Edition 2 for offline programming of robotic welding cells.
3D printing revives hard-to-find Porsche Classic parts
Andrew Krok for CNet: When it comes to plastic, Porsche uses selective laser sintering, which is not the same as the fused deposition modeling that you see in most desktop-based 3D printers.
Manufacturing Transportation and Logistics 101
Perhaps more than any other industry, manufacturing logistics requires a fluid and flexible model. Manufacturers-and, consequently, their transportation and logistics partners-need to be flexible enough to respond to sudden fluctuations in the marketplace.
Injection Molding Design & Process Optimization
This approach is superior to standard molding procedures because of the high level of scientific control utilized through upfront Design of Experiments (DoE), flow analysis, process monitoring, and quality control that can quickly detect and correct any process variations.
