The Power of Additive Machining
The Additive Machining module in Edgecam 2019 R1 software from Vero accurately guides a laser as it deposits material to build a shape using direct energy deposition, then uses advanced rotary and five-axis milling cycles to finish the final shape.
How to Use Multi-Jet Fusion for Economical Small Batch Production
Partfinder software from Additive Innovation makes the economical production of small batches and spare parts possible with the multi-jet fusion process by automatically searching large volumes of data for components that are suitable for 3D printing.
Using Robots to Print the Future
Robotics-based additive processes from ABB offer inherent flexibility of motion and processing power to produce a component as close to near net shape as possible in a much-compressed time period.
Scalable 3D Printing Systems Meet Evolving Business Demands
Modular production platforms from 3D Systems help shops evolve and grow by accelerating their time-to-market with ultra-fast production of highly accurate and repeatable parts, without regard to a minimum order quantity.
Hexagon Acquires AMendate
This expands their capabilities into simulation software for additive manufacturing.
Can We Talk? Conversations Between Machines Get Deep (Part One)
Across the emerging Smart Factory, connected systems are networking production processes from design to final delivery. Conversational programming makes it quick and easy for operators to generate programs at the machine, while other connected systems exchange and use information about tool management, batch processing/scheduling, machine monitoring, quality assurance and more.
Smart Software Reduces Production Steps
Using a systematic approach to controlled tube manufacturing, t project software from transfluid connects CAD, BDE, ERP and shop intranet systems with tube bending machines and bending robots to make complex tube fabrication simple and safer and production less expensive.
Cloud Communications Connect Machines and Systems for Automation
The LoopEdge computing platform from Litmus Automation can connect to various PLCs, robotic systems, CNC machines, and other industrial systems used for automating manufacturing processes.
A Connected Factory for More Efficient Production Management
Global Release 2019 software from Lantek uses AI, Cloud, machine-learning and other technological advances to obtain quality data for integral control and management of any cutting machine and process with global visibility to raise production levels, increase agility and reduce complexity.
Automated Monitoring of First Piece Inspection on the Shop Floor
Working in conjunction with eNET Machine Monitoring, the eNET QC Status Dashboard from eNETDNC is locally-hosted software that increases visibility and accountability throughout the quality control operation for the first-piece inspection process.
Cybersecurity of Communications Between Controls
By passively intercepting and monitoring serial communications on industrial control networks for intrusion detection and asset management, the SerialTap cybersecurity sensor from Cynash helps shops address and solve complex security challenges that affect their legacy control systems.
Automatic Data Analysis Increases Shop Floor Efficiency and Reduces Downtime
ShopFloorConnect 6.0 OEE and Shop Floor Data Collection software from Wintriss Controls gathers production data from every machine in the factory, displays the Key Performance Indicators in real-time and produces detailed analytics, including comprehensive OEE reports in a variety of formats.
