HPC Trends - Why the CFD Community Must Be 'Proactive' Not Reactive
In this article, we look at ways in which the world of HPC (High-performance computing) is approaching the latest disruptions and trends, and how the world of CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) must match this proactive rather than reactive stance.
Field Logic Controllers (FLCs) expand control options for industrial environments
FLCs can be used in standalone applications or as a way to expand I/O without adding more I/O points to a PLC.
Technological Trends and Practical Examples of the Fourth Industrial Revolution
Demands for greater variety, lower cost, improved quality, and smaller batch sizes can turn a prosperous production into a fading one. Fully automated production cells can resolve the issue.
Measures to Cope With Reversed Energy
A proper choice of an industrial power supply can already solve problems and error messages caused by reversed energy.
Cooperation between SICK and Silicon Software implements VisualApplets
With VisualApplets providing SICK with a wide range of new possibilities for application solutions, SICK's customer requirements can be adapted to their systems for a wider gamut of image processing applications.
Red Lion Case Study: Blizzard Ski
In addition to production metrics, manufacturing equipment statuses are also displayed. Operators or maintenance workers can quickly see and react if a machine is operational, being resupplied or out of service based on the icons and colors associate to the equipment on the display.
Why Risk Assessment is Important in Machine Safety
Competent consultants can greatly enhance the risk assessment process, but the final responsibility for personnel safety is still that of the employer. Employees should also be trained to recognize hazards and act appropriately.
Talking FABTECH 2017 with Turck
Well be showcasing a smaller 4 mm nut sensor, an aramid fiber high temperature and flame resistant cordset, and the recently released TBIP CIP Safety Hybrid Block I/O Module.
Time-Sensitive Networking: Reliable Communication for Industrial IoT
What happens when a command from the controller arrives at the robot arm a tenth of a second late? Or what happens if sensor data never actually reaches the controller?
Special Tradeshow Coverage for FABTECH 2017

Interview with Manuel Merkt, Vice President of Operations, Hermle Machine Company
Hermle is building and preparing not only for the present, but for the future as well. We are a company that looks ahead and plans with a great vision, so I can only believe that we will see some significant changes in the future.
How to Solve the Challenges of Using Natural Refrigerants in Cooling System Design
The use of natural refrigerants is on the rise, creating a new set of challenges for cooling system design. HVAC system developers can optimize safety and efficiency by understanding the implications of the trend on component design and selection.
New Tube Cutting Technology Meets Next Generation Production Needs
While legacy stent and tube cutting systems have performed well during recent decades, new cutting technologies coming onto the market offer faster and better cuts, with higher production rates and new and unique cutting capabilities.
Is Next-Shoring the New Frontier in Manufacturing?
Next shoring involves moving a companys production capacity to where the market for the goods is. For U.S. centered companies, serving American markets, this is the same as reshoring, as reshoring entails moving production capacity back to the U.S. to meet production demands in U.S. markets.
