Leverage the Edge - the Benefits of Processing Data at the Edge, Not the Cloud
The edge is an essential layer of the manufacturing technology stack. Machines on the factory floor collect vast amounts of raw data from various sources using numerous protocols, which all needs to be processed quickly to gain actionable insight.
How to manage a complex network of new and legacy equipment
With rapid advancement in automated and connected technologies, managing both new and old equipment simultaneously can be a challenging balancing act.
What Does Digital Manufacturing Mean and How Can We Move Toward It?
Siemens used IoT sensors and data analytics to create a digital twin of the factory. By analyzing and adjusting various parts of this model, the facility could see where inefficiencies were and which changes would have the greatest impact.
Why Combining Your HMI & PLC Is the Smarter Move
While PLCs control mechanisms, electronics, and other low-level devices, HMIs empower operators with visualization and touch controls. Together, HMIs and PLCs pave the way for efficient and flexible industrial workflows.
How to Approach Make Vs. Buy Decisions for Optic Assembly

PLM-Based Engineering
Today, engineers have a lot more control over the direction of their products, and PLM is where they reflect these decisions. PLM is the only data repository where someone can get a holistic view of the entire product and its history of changes.
Micro Molding - Material Selection and Design Concerns
You need to understand the basic design approach and really bottom out what you can and cannot do, as when micro molding, even the smallest design change can be catastrophic and completely derail a project.
The challenges of mass customization in manufacturing
Smart manufacturers have already been aware that mass customization can be the key to a profitable business, as it helps boost customer satisfaction and win brand loyalty.
Rising Demand for EVs Will Disrupt Auto Manufacturing
The most significant transformations are likely to happen in factories, where the differences between EV and ICE vehicles could reshape workflows and drastically reduce labor hours.
Dialing Up Productivity with Workstream Collaboration
The coronavirus pandemic is fast-tracking the take-up of "workstream collaboration". This next generation of unified productivity and collaboration tools is designed to make it easier for colleagues to work together from afar.
Continuous and Exacting Measurements Deliver New Levels of Quality Control
Using continuous measurements reduces or even eliminates the production of faulty products and allows for consistent and repeatable production. This used to be an impossible task for small products.
