Unlocking the Benefits of a Data-Driven Manufacturing Supply Chain
A data-driven supply chain isn't just about tracking shipments. It's about turning a mountain of raw data: sales figures, inventory levels, supplier performance, even weather patterns, into actionable insights. It allows supply chains to anticipate problems before they occur
How Automation is Revolutionizing Pipe Fabrication Amid Labor Shortages and Rising Competition
The world of pipe fabrication is changing fast. With ongoing labor shortages and growing pressure from global competitors, many fabricators are asking the same question: How can we keep up while maintaining quality and staying profitable?
The Promise & Risks of Physical AI's Self-Optimizing Factories & Human-AI Teaming
Physical AI is the difference between an algorithm that predicts a machine failure and an intelligent robot that can physically inspect the machine, identify the fault, and adapt its operation to prevent a shutdown.
IDS: See. Align. Place.
For both machines, the manufacturer relies on industrial cameras from the USB 3 uEye CP series from IDS Imaging Development Systems to ensure maximum accuracy, speed and process control. These systems are already in high-volume use across the Asian electronics market.
Top 5 AI-Powered Capabilities to Look for in a WMS Vendor
Success depends on how deeply and thoughtfully those capabilities are embedded into the system. As you evaluate vendors, look beyond the buzzwords and focus on practical AI tools that deliver faster deployment, smarter execution, and long-term flexibility.
Beyond Automation: How Software is Redefining Industrial Machinery
Software-Defined Machinery (SDM) leads the transformation where the capabilities and performance of industrial assets are determined by sophisticated software. When paired with AI, this software unlocks a new realm of capability, efficiency, and innovation.
Key Considerations for Maximizing Manufacturing Efficiency
It's true that advanced simulation tools have helped improve the efficiency and effectiveness of robotic workcell design and path planning, but it still remains an incredibly time consuming process.
Giving Blue-Collar Workers a Voice in Problem Solving - Without Slowing Production
Blue-collar workers interact daily with machines, materials, and processes, giving them a unique vantage point. Yet in many plants, their voices go unheard because reporting issues is slow, informal, or buried under paperwork.
Why edge AI alleviates the need for "flexible" data centers
The future of sustainable AI isn't about managing massive centralized loads more cleverly-it's about distributing intelligence to where it's actually needed, with the energy efficiency that comes naturally from edge computing.
4 Robotic Finishing Techniques for High-Precision Manufacturing Applications
Manufacturing leaders interested in implementing robotic finishing techniques should carefully plan and focus on seamless integration. They should consider how these advanced technologies fit into their existing facilities and prioritize employee training.
Adaptive Ventilation Is Creating Healthier, More Efficient Manufacturing Spaces
As manufacturing leaders assess how to make their facilities more energy-efficient while promoting better working conditions to support employee health, many become interested in adaptive ventilation solutions.
Natural Cleaner Manufacturer Cuts Delivery Times with Smarter Planning
Ymani Efunyale started making her own cleaning product after her toddler experienced a bad asthma attack triggered by a store-bought cleaner. Today, she ships her products all over the US-and here's how she manages it all.
Maximizing Operation Efficiency through Manufacturing Processes
Cross-functional collaboration isn't just helpful, it's the backbone of a smooth new product introduction. You can have the best design on paper, but if engineering, operations and supply chain aren't aligned from day one, you're setting yourself up for late-stage surprises.
