Aerospace Manufacturing: A Need to Innovate, But No One to Do the Work
In the face of increased global competitiveness, the pressure to innovate is on. Given this pressure and the industry's disappearing labor force, A&D executives are turning to automation to ensure the consistent productivity of their facilities.
Is There a Tomorrow for Manufacturing in the United States?
Operators will soon be able to test and optimize the machine settings for the next product in line in the virtual world before they make the physical change-over.
Using Silicon in Lithium Ion Batteries to Increase Capacity
We have demonstrated the ability to electrospin liquid CHS into silicon nanowires that when blended with carbon lead to performance comparable to that achieved by CVD grown silicon nanowires but at reduced cost and simplified scaling.
Logistic companies Swisslog, Dematic, Egemin and Intelligrated have all been Acquired
All these companies are logistics and material handling vendors and times are changing in logistics and fulfillment
What Super-Efficient Manufacturing Looks Like
The Tesla factory in Fremont, California, and the Gigafactory in Nevada are monuments to science and progress.
Understanding Industry 4.0
Process and device will become inseparable. This is the direction were heading in and it is all powered by the capabilities of Industry 4.0.
The Next Industrial Revolution - 3D Printing
The 3D printing field is expected to grow more than 14% annually to become an $8.4 billion industry by 2020
Direct Marking for FDA UDI Compliance
Understanding Permanent Marks and Methods for UDI Marking and Verification
Why Industry 4.0 Will Leave AGVs Behind
Industry 4.0 capabilities enable flexible technologies to take the factory floor: self-driving vehicles offer flexibility, proactive planning, collaboration, and adaptive behaviours.
Will 3D Printing Be the Demise of Plastic Injection Molding?
When it comes to 3D printing versus injection molding, the best production method for your parts will become clear when you can answer these questions regarding your desired quantity, quality and cost.
Patent Deployment in Smart Manufacturing
Since fewer companies have applied smart manufacturing patents in chemical, food, biotechnology, mechanical, transport, and machine tools industries, these sectors are relatively uncontested for perspective vendors.
3D Printing - Is this the Next Wave of Technology?
Like a superstrong magnet, 3D printing will pull manufacturing away from the manufacturing hubs and redistribute it, product by product, among thousands or tens of thousands of smaller factories across the globe.
Becoming the Factory of the Future: How to Prepare Now for the Industrial Internet of Things
The Internet is not going to hit the factory all at once; the transition to global connectivity will be gradual. In the meantime, businesses have a chance to prepare their operations to integrate seamlessly with this new era of industry by taking steps now to implement digital, automated, connected devices and services.
Innovation in Creation: Demand Rises While Prices Drop for 3D Printing Machines
Declining 3D printer prices will prompt innovations at a faster rate in downstream markets, making customization the new norm for a wide variety of products.
Japan Embracing Industry 4.0 And IoT To Leap Into Next Industrial Automation
The challenge ahead is that not only manufacturing technologies will change drastically but the whole business environment, in which Japan may have to strive to overcome other than IoT super next generation automation.

Featured Product
Model TR1 Tru-Trac
The Model TR1 Tru-Trac® linear measurement solution is a versatile option for tracking velocity, position, or distance over a wide variety of surfaces. An integrated encoder, measuring wheel, and spring-loaded torsion arm in one, compact unit, the Model TR1 is easy to install. The spring-loaded torsion arm offers adjustable torsion load, allowing the Model TR1 to be mounted in almost any orientation - even upside-down. The threaded shaft on the pivot axis is field reversible, providing mounting access from either side. With operating speeds up to 3000 feet per minute, a wide variety of configuration options - including multiple wheel material options - and a housing made from a durable, conductive composite material that minimizes static buildup, the Model TR1 Tru-Trac® is the ideal solution for countless applications.
