Many businesses have folded, thousands of jobs have been lost, but there is an upside to this - many have managed to ride the wave and come out the other side with a stronger, more resilient business model that will drive them forward despite uncertain times.

The New Supply Chain Issues Can't Be Handled the Old Way

Supply shortages, cybersecurity threats, and a lack of worker digital skills are the top three challenges faced by manufacturers, according to an IDC survey in November 2021.

Increasing Demand for Medical 3D Printed Parts Requires Effective Finishing Methods

As the implementation of advanced manufacturing methods like AM increases, it is important to investigate and apply production methods that can produce intricate, yet reliable parts quickly and cost-effectively.

Adopting These Trends Will Help Manufacturers Reach the Future of Work

To keep pace with economic demands in an increasingly competitive landscape, manufacturers must aggressively adopt strategies that address the industry's generational skills gap and accelerate digital transformation.

6 Emerging Solutions for Industrial Noise Control

Managing an industrial facility means dealing with several hazards. While some of these risks, like repetitive motion strains and machine collisions, may be obvious, some are less evident. Noise control, for example, often goes overlooked in industrial safety.

Improving Maintenance in Manufacturing

For those in high volume, low margin industries such as food and beverage or automotive parts manufacturing, preventative maintenance may be wrongly seen as unattainable, due to perceived high upfront costs.

Simplified CMM Inspection Provides a Flexible Approach to More Productive Quality Control

The simplified operator menu lists all the available inspection programs and the exact position the part should be placed on the machine table for inspection, giving operators the confidence to perform measurement tasks in just a few clicks.

5x5 Why - a Better Way to Resolve Supplier Related Quality Concerns

From my experience, relational governance inevitably creates an atmosphere of loyalty and trust much more easily than one that is adversarial, focusing only on punitive actions when contractual agreements are not met.

The Earth's environment is in code-red status, but new digital solutions can meet the challenge.

Plant controller systems based on static models are not responsive enough to adapt to changes and prescribe actions to insure optimal outcomes. As a result, set points are adjusted every now and then by operators who hunt for good conditions.

Now is the time for Manufacturers to Invest in Safety and Compliance

Without being extremely precise about what you are doing throughout the entire manufacturing process you can put people at risk. So following regulations and compliance standards are crucial for manufacturers - from back-end processes to production to the final product.

ABB Achieves Significant Improvements for Iot Condition Monitoring and Predictive Maintenance With Cassia Networks

After launching their successful digital solution ABB Ability™, the multinational discovered that the wired connections were not efficiently scaling with their platform. These connections were limited by short-range, one-to-one Bluetooth connections using mobile devices.

Powering Additive Manufacturing with an Environmental and Social Impact Commitment

Structured ESG and strategic, measurable sustainability programs are unlocking the deep value behind "doing well (profitability) by doing good (sustainability)."

2021 Top Article - Sustain Processes by Anchoring with Digital Technology

When organizations invest in process optimization, experience has shown us that simpler changes have the best chance of being implemented in full and lasting for years.

2021 Top Article - How Manufacturers Can Accelerate Digital Marketing Transformation With ABM

B2B buying habits have been evolving independent of the pandemic, and manufacturers must adopt strategies and technologies that also address the following ongoing trends.

2021 Top Article - Additive in Space - Cost Reduction in Aerospace Through Additive Manufacturing

The elements needed for space travel do not have to meet the high launch requirements, but can be tailored precisely to the mission requirements. The process is being researched on parabolic flights in zero gravity - supported by a uEye CP industrial camera from IDS.
