For manufacturing engineers, a large part of the job is managing and eliminating risks. This process is called error-proofing, or poka-yoke in the industry.
The Power of Traceability: The Ultimate Shield Against Product Recall Risks
Regulatory bodies worldwide enforce stringent controls and conduct frequent audits, making it imperative for manufacturers to have a handle on every facet of their production process.
The Benefits of MOM & MES and Why the Differences Matter
Mike Bradford Strategic Business Development Director at DELMIA, takes a closer look at some of the biggest differences between MES and MOM, and why these differences are critical to manufacturing success.
The "Most Expensive Software" Holding Our Factories Back
The industry's reliance on cumbersome tech to drive manufacturing operations (masked as "customized just for you") - which costs millions of dollars, and in many cases, takes years to install - is not made with mid-sized factories in mind.
How MES Software Drives Digital Transformation in Your Manufacturing Operations
The implementation of MES has paved the way for a more agile, cost-effective, and sustainable future for the architectural millwork and metal fabrication sector.
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.
Industry 4.0: Embracing a Smarter Future
Our software brings a fundamental impact from three perspectives: process and product quality control, production optimization, and the agility required for quick responses to market opportunities and contingencies.
Should you build or buy your MES? - Three key reasons you might be safer with COTS
Opponents in the build versus buy debate often defend fiercely entrenched positions, making it harder to understand the pros and cons. Here, Martin Hurley at Novotek Ireland, offers three key reasons for purchasing a commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) MES.
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.
Streamlining and Integrating Manufacturing Execution Systems and Operations Management (MES/MOM)
The aerospace industry is undergoing a renaissance of innovation with manufacturers pushing for sleeker, more efficient, greener designs across the board.
Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) and Accelerating Your Quality System's Actionability
In absence of Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES), reporting is purely historical and is often available too late to take action on its findings. MES enables non-conformances to be addressed in the present and minimize their potential impact.

T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs
Our retention knobs are manufactured above international standards or to machine builder specifications. Retention knobs are manufactured utilizing AMS-6274/AISI-8620 alloy steel drawn in the United States. Threads are single-pointed on our lathes while manufacturing all other retention knob features to ensure high concentricity. Our process ensures that our threads are balanced (lead in/lead out at 180 degrees.) Each retention knob is carburized (hardened) to 58-62HRC, and case depth is .020-.030. Core hardness 40HRC. Each retention knob is coated utilizing a hot black oxide coating to military specifications. Our retention knobs are 100% covered in black oxide to prevent rust. All retention knob surfaces (not just mating surfaces) have a precision finish of 32 RMA micro or better: ISO grade 6N. Each retention knob is magnetic particle tested and tested at 2.5 times the pulling force of the drawbar. Certifications are maintained for each step in the manufacturing process for traceability.
