Selecting the Right Adhesive-backed Mounts for the Best Use
Adhesive-backed mounts, or "sticky-backs" as they are sometimes referred to, come in three types: rubber-based, acrylic-based, and high bond (which is an enhanced acrylic-based adhesive). Each of these are unique and provide their own set of strengths and drawbacks.
What Is MES & Why Should Manufacturers Invest In It?
Whilst MES has established itself with some of the major manufacturers, there's still a large number of businesses that could stand to benefit from the solution but simply don't have enough understanding about the tangible benefits it can bring to their operation.
PHOTO CHEMICAL ETCHING: REVOLUTIONIZING ELECTRIC VEHICLE COMPONENT PRODUCTION FOR CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION
PCE, also known as chemical milling or photo etching, is a subtractive manufacturing process that utilizes a combination of light-sensitive photoresist, chemicals, and precision etching to produce intricate components with high accuracy and repeatability.
Improving Manufacturing Operations with Augmented Reality Solutions
When workers are located in different regions or countries, it can be difficult to provide on-site support and training. Vuzix AR glasses can provide real-time guidance from remote experts, enabling workers to perform complex tasks without the need for on-site support.
AM Produced Mandrels Provide New Opportunities for Composite Manufacturers
Mandrels are an essential tool when making hollow composite parts and components. During the manufacturing process, the mandrel is inserted into the end of a tube or pipe and held in place while the object is being formed around it.
What is "Smart Mechatronics" and How Can It Support Fastener Manufacturing?
Assembly operations that use handling, joining, and pressing tools for a range of production applications - including fastener manufacturing - continually seek to improve the versatility, ease of use, production time, and quality of such operations.
Optimizing the Manufacturing Supply Chain With 7 Tech-Forward Solutions
Every manufacturing operation needs an efficient and resilient supply chain. Stock shortages, shipping delays and similar disruptions can prolong production, raise costs and impact customer satisfaction, so manufacturers must prevent them as much as possible.
How 3D Printing Can Dramatically Reduce Carbon Emissions in the Manufacturing Industry

FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection
The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
