Industrial computed tomography is a cost-effective, reliable way to meet intensifying
requirements for qualifying both the design of aerospace parts and the materials needed for their construction.
Capture 3D becomes part of the ZEISS Industrial Quality & Research segment, following ZEISS acquisition of GOM, makers of the ATOS systems Capture 3D resells.
Key steps are virtual twins and real relationships.
Sandvik Coromant’s Package Selector Application analyzes a 3D CAD model of a product and recommends the smallest packaging possible using an AI algorithm that calculates the product’s rotation.
While fossil fuels dominate the energy market, expect a new mix of parts as renewable energy and EVs grow in market share.
AI software enables the company to capture relevant runtime metadata and put it into context to create useful information in real time.
GOM Scan 1 is a portable 3D scanner designed for the serious hobbyist or industrial engineer that needs to digitize small to medium-sized objects at an affordable price
Mikron Tool expands its CrazyMill Cool P&S milling cutter family
Mold-and-die shops thrive on the latest technology in tooling, software, and machines. Process success often depends on using best-in-class solutions from the past as well as from the latest advances of today. New ways of using older technologies often depend on advances in enabling technologies.
Basic trends in modern manufacturing are driving growth in 3D optical metrology. “One is the highly complex and high-tech material that manufacturers are using today. For example, in the aerospace turbine blade market, they simply cannot touch the part like they used to—the surface finish of the material is too readily affected by any kind of contact metrology."
