Which Motor Is Right for Your Manufacturing Process?
Several different types of electric motors have been developed to address the needs of various manufacturing processes. Lets examine some of the most common types of electric motors and their strengths within the industry.
Excellence in Manufacturing
A lot has already been said about Smart Manufacturing. In the end, its a good starting point to assess where you and your manufacturing organization are today. What have you done, what should your next steps be?
Automotive Parts Supplier Launches IoT Initiative in Six-Week Sprints Powered by Industrial Data
Recognizing the need for connectivity, data access, and scalability, executives at HIROTEC worked to develop a competitive strategy to capitalize on the potential benefits of the Internet of Things (IoT).
Training Tomorrow's Manufacturing Leaders: an Inside Look at McKinsey's North American Digital Capability Center (DCC)
The DCC is a unique learning center where companies leaders and their workforces participate in hands-on, next-gen digital manufacturing workshops. This helps them advance their business operations, design and productivity, and prepare for tomorrows jobs.
New 3D Printing Method Based on Ultrasonic Manipulation Technology
Ultrasonic manipulation uses ultrasonic waves for handling of a wide range of components and materials, which potentially enables the creation of a more versatile 3D printers. Because of the non-contact nature of ultrasonic manipulation, particles and components with very different mechanical properties and shapes can be handled with a single ultrasonic manipulator.
Common Mistakes That Growing Manufacturers Make
Management might not think that it could happen, but too much growth can overwhelm a manufacturer, as the business breaks down under the stress of expansion. Growth is good, but slow growth is best.
Using 3d Printing in Education
Education should look to influence the future. If we provide students with technologies that are able to make seemingly impossible objects, we give them the potential to influence the future with a greater impact.
How to specify an electric linear actuator that's industrial strength
When it comes to linear actuators, the housing, fasteners, rod, gasket and seals need to have the required corrosion resistance in order for the actuator to withstand the environment.
Interview with with Josiah Haas, President of Bud Industries, Inc.
Our enclosures protect electronic and electrical components in many different markets. When we customize them to fit the specific requests it streamlines their supply chain.
GE Is Building The World's Largest 'Additive' Machine For 3D Printing Metals
The production version, still to be named, will extend the third dimension to a meter. GE Additive said the machines "build geometry will be customizable and scalable for an individual customers project. Its feature resolution and build-rate speeds will equal or better todays additive machines."
The Next Phase in Industrial Dust Explosion Protection
Among its directives, NFPA 652 outlines deadlines for sampling and analysis to identify potential risk areas for dust explosions in industrial facilities. Spotlight now turns to mitigation equipment.
The Role of Big Data in Industrial Manufacturers' Growth
The world of industry has been steadily advancing since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, and this new move toward data-driven manufacturing strategy is simply the next step in revolutionizing the industry.
The Aerospace Industry Is Likely to Solve 3-D Printing Problems
The marriage of 3-D printing and the aerospace industry is a shining example of a relationship that's mutually beneficial. While it was the innovations of top aerospace manufacturers that ultimately led to today's interest in 3-D printing, it's these same designers and engineers who are now pushing the limits of current technology.
Solving Engineering Challenges with Teflon
Teflon and other functional coatings from an experienced applicator can solve design problems including excessive wear, sticking, noise and corrosion.
Kiosk Manufacturers Should Partner for CAD Design Support and Not for Manufacturing
It is vital for manufacturers not to give away what they are best at, to some third-party contract manufacturing firm and compromise the quality and the experience promise that clients expect. The cost equation thats bothering these manufacturers, however, can be solved by shedding the non-core design tasks while retaining back the control in manufacturing.

FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection
The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
