Today, laser technology in manufacturing touches all of our lives on a daily basis; lasers cut air bag material and weld air bag detonators for our in-car safety; lasers weld the batteries in many of our mobile devices; lasers drill aero-engine components for planes; lasers cut the glass for our smart phones and tablets screens; lasers weld the drivetrains in our cars and trucks; lasers cut medical stents that increase and enhance our lives, just to name a few.

The classic manufacturing conundrum is how to make products quicker, cheaper, and better.

Solid-state laser technology has matured, leading to development of new, cost-effective welding applications, such as hybrid welding

Nesting is the process of arranging parts to be cut from sheets of metal or wood in the most efficient manner possible in order to maximize yield and speed the cutting process. By reducing scrap and accelerating the cutting process, fabricators are saving on material cost while running more jobs.

Turning to software over paper reports does more than just save trees. Chris Mahar, Associate Editor of Manufacturing Engineering, talks with David McPhail, President and CEO of Memex Inc., about how manufacturers can utilize technology to improve efficiency, reduce downtime and boost productivity and profits across their business.

Manufacturers require a deep understanding of operations to make quick, data-driven decisions and keep production running in the face of unpredictable challenges.

To climb the Mastercam learning curve, Ariel Corp. worked with CNC Software to craft a training course for its workforce.

The complex world of artificial intelligence and machine learning—and why it all matters

Materials.AI is trained on Fictiv's manufacturing data to help mechanical engineers navigate material options.
