As COVID-19 highlights vulnerabilities in global supply chains and resilience takes priority, report calculates ongoing cost of shocks and prospects for production to shift
â— Industries experience month-long disruptions every 3.7 years on average
â— Companies can expect supply chain disruptions to erase 40 percent of a year's profits over the course of a decade on average-and extreme events take an even bigger toll
â— Up to a quarter of global trade flows could move to different countries over the next five years if companies restructure their supplier networks and governments take action. But moving supply chains is not the only way to build resilience.

Hui Ting Has developed a model machine for wire heading and forming integrated machine
CNC Head Forming & Wire Bending Machine
1. Use the large power servo motor imported from Japan, work in cooperation with the bending machine, complete head forming and wire bending at one time, and manifest the perfect combination between intelligence and power.
2. Can be used for puction of auto exhaust pipe hooks and other wire forming products after cold heading.
Note: used in connection with wire bending machine
Analysis of the respective advantages of three structures in wire forming machine
Wire forming/bending machine, the advantages of each of the three structures are analyzed. At present, the automatic equipment used in the production line is divided into three structures: turning machine, rotary plate machine and multi-axis camless machine.

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.
