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.
The acquisition of CAD/CAM pioneer Mastercam by Sandvik Manufacturing Solutions will help further tooling developments.
While fossil fuels dominate the energy market, expect a new mix of parts as renewable energy and EVs grow in market share.
A technological transformation at renewable energy firm Siemens Gamesa will enable real-time reporting and digital enabling of its workforce.
Thermwood Corp. has added a third print orientation to its LSAM Large Scale Additive Manufacturing systems.
Metal diffusion bonding is an essential joining method for achieving a high-purity interface when two similar metals require superior structural integrity. The process involves applying high temperature, and pressure to metals mated together in a hot press causes the atoms on solid metallic surfaces to intersperse and bond.
Larger manufacturing enterprises have benefitted from smart-manufacturing innovations while smaller manufacturers have lagged behind—but that is changing.
CAD/CAM improves generative design, print simulation, path programming and process control in additive manufacturing.
