2025 Top Article - The Rise of AI in Manufacturing to Collect and Use Data
While AI and machine learning systems typically require around two years to collect enough data to reach their full potential, manufacturers can start seeing benefits almost immediately with basic analysis tools and dashboards.
Case Study from Nord - A Heavy Lift
How OMi Crane Systems works with NORD DRIVESYSTEMS to keep manufacturing moving. For OMi Cranes and its customers alike, having a reliable drive system supplier isn't just about convenience, it's about keeping material moving efficiently and without fail.
Why B2B IAM Is Essential for Modern Manufacturing
VPN access is widely used without strong safeguards regarding whether those users should be trusted or what they're entitled to access. Cybercriminals are increasingly targeting VPN setups.
Energy-Efficient Manufacturing 4.0: Integrating Smart Drives, LED Displays, and IoT for Sustainable Factories
Energy efficiency in manufacturing means producing the same or higher output while consuming less energy. It is measured by key metrics such as energy intensity (kWh per unit produced) and power utilization rate.
How AI, Robotics, and Digital Twins are Transforming Modern Production Environments
I'm most excited about Cognitive AI becoming the factory's operating system, and cobots will effectively program themselves through natural language, teach-by-demonstration, and auto-generated PLC/robot code.
How Aerospace Precision Can Modernize American Manufacturing
One of the biggest obstacles to modernization, he notes, is cultural rather than technical. The main barriers are organizational silos, he says. Design, production, and IT often operate separately, and without shared data, digital transformation stalls.
Closing Europe's aerospace production gap - EDM automation as part of the answer
EDM removes material using controlled electrical sparks between an electrode and the workpiece submerged in dielectric fluid. This makes it possible to cut extremely hard metals into complex shapes with micrometre accuracy.
Designing for Deviation in Additive Manufacturing
To truly realise the potential of AM, we need to embrace a new design philosophy, one that doesn't just work around variation, but works with it. At Metamorphic, we call this approach Designing for Deviation.
Case Study from NORD - Perfectly MESHed
High-quality gear motors from NORD DRIVESYSTEMS are a crucial piece of the manufacturing puzzle for this Georgia-based automation provider.
Why Compliance Documentation Matters in Electronic Recycling
Partner with the wrong ITAD and e-waste provider, and your business faces lawsuits and damage to your reputation. It's beneficial to be very selective about who handles your e-waste.
Two Industry Leaders - One Goal: Maximum Process Reliability
With software solutions from CSP, companies from a wide range of industries are taking their production processes to a whole new level. The result: greater efficiency, transparent quality assurance, and a decisive advantage on the path to the smart factory.
NewsFender's 3D Printed Ballistic Fender Charts a New Course in Maritime Defense
Discover how NewsFender's 3D printed customizable, eco-friendly fenders and boat parts are making waves in the maritime defense industry.
Why Manufacturers Must Rebuild Their Factories Around the Buyer
Today's generation of buyers expects products built to fit their needs, transparent pricing, reliable delivery, and ongoing support that extends beyond the initial sale.
Hatz Engines - Case Study from CSP US Inc.
Before the introduction of CSP software, there was no integrated control of workflows, and the potential for process optimization remained untapped. Production relied on manual coordination, which led to efficiency losses and unnecessary error rates.
How Flying S is Turning Data into a Competitive Advantage
As automation, multi-axis machining, and lights-out operations become the norm, shops are realizing that the real advantage doesn't come from just running more machines; it comes from understanding how they're running.
