Mistakes are sent packing - Autonomous Machine Vision improves accuracy while reducing costs
Packaging and labels contain key information on food products and drugs. A minor mistake on either could have serious repercussions that impact a product's safety, regulatory compliance and consumers' satisfaction.
USDA Investing in Water and Wastewater Infrastructure
As the coronavirus pandemic rages on, the government is taking steps toward protecting public health. On May 27, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced a $281 million investment in improving water and wastewater infrastructure.
Manufacturers Embrace Price Alignment Technology
When corporate objectives include rapidly and repeatedly adjusting prices at the most granular level, automation must be designed to alleviate the pain by using simple rules to derive prices.
Procurement Technology - What it Can and Cannot Replace in a Manufacturer's Journey Towards Supply Chain Resilience and Agility
This article reviews the key elements in supplier management for manufacturers and how Source-to-Pay procurement technology can support the journey towards supply chain resilience and agility in times of crisis.
Omron Helps Life Sciences Company Upgrade Prototype with Cutting-edge Technology and Cut Costs by 30% With Solution Using NX-I/O
Omron gave preference to EtherCAT over DeviceNet because the latter is a slower CAN-based protocol designed for sensors and it uses screw-type connections that can be difficult to install and maintain.
Understanding the Common Vulnerability Scoring System
The common vulnerability scoring system (CVSS) provides manufacturers a way to assess the principal characteristics of a vulnerability and produce a numerical score reflecting its severity.
Camera Specs - Not the Frontier in the Era of AI - Autonomous Machine Vision (AMV) Offers a New Approach to Visual QA
Machine vision engineers are pushing the frontiers of camera specifications to offer solutions with incredible resolution. Yonatan Hyatt explains why Autonomous Machine Vision (AMV) is pushing the boundaries of artificial intelligence, not camera specifications.
Physical Manufacturing, Outsourcing and the Digital Age of Crisis
While the global covid19 pandemic seems to be fading into the annals of history, the next crisis loomed large before the last one could begin to fade away into obscurity. What do these two most recent crises in the US demonstrate to the manufacturing world?
Simplifying AI Deployment for Quality Inspection
In the vision market, we're really at that initial AI and machine learning phase. AI for inspection excels at locating, identifying, and classifying objects and segmenting scenes and defects, with less sensitivity to image variability or distortion.
Mini factories in containers help reduce mask shortages
The factory in a box could be located in front of a hospital, next to a shopping center, or near a school. The integrated air-conditioning system with air purification filters makes production possible even in places with high risk of viral contamination.
How Does Electropolishing Surfaces Keep Food Safe?
Trouble often comes from the surfaces that warehouses, processing plants and other facilities use. Without the right surface material, bacteria can collect even with the right practices in place - raising the risk of food contamination.
In the Vacuum Workshop
In the semiconductor industry, cleanliness and precision are absolutely critical. Swiss vacuum specialist VAT therefore partnered up with maxon to develop a drive system for wafer processing.
Production line flexibility - How to use modularization for food production increase
According to an industry survey, the majority of food manufacturing companies are expecting to increase production. However, the same study suggested automation does not offer enough flexibility to fulfil an increase in production.
As The Electronics Manufacturing Industry Slowly Recovers From The Pandemic, What Can We Learn?
Within the realm of manufacturing, one thing is abundantly clear: supply chains are intrinsically tied and vulnerable to just about everything in our world today.
Improving Manufacturing Operations in Response to the Pandemic
Companies will need to quickly find ways to sustain their business, mitigate all supply chain risks, and be more flexible to the new environment. These requirements will drive a need for greater visibility and control over operations.

Supply Chain - Featured Product
Boost your fleet's ROI with predictive analytics
Intangles is designed to keep trucks on the road - not in the shop. Intangles' proprietary vehicle health monitoring system transforms fleet maintenance into predictive maintenance. We leverage Digital Twin Technology to create a virtual copy of a truck, then analyze historical and real-time data to provide early warnings of vehicle issues. The result: a significant decrease in breakdowns, which means lower maintenance costs and enhanced uptime. By identifying maintenance issues before they occur, Intangles can help you save time and money.
Manufacturing and Automation - Featured Company
CSP US Inc.
The CSP Manufacturing OS supports companies in the manufacturing industry in setting up an end-to-end quality architecture. It combines all quality-relevant processes in a central system - from the store floor to the compliance level. Instead of isolated individual solutions, an integrated environment is created that monitors processes, prevents errors at an early stage, analyzes data and archives it in an audit-proof manner.
