Constant refinement of medical machining from tooling design to finished product requires not only the ability to handle a broad range of plastic and metal materials but also to achieve predictable results—particularly in the face of strict regulations.

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."

For ABB, robotic welding comes down to a never-ending process of ensuring parts are suitable for laser joining and developing the appropriate processes. To that end, ABB is refining a recent innovation to improve beam delivery speeds and has developed software for on-the-fly welding in tandem with Trumpf’s Intelligent Programmable Focusing Optic (IPFO).

At the Digital Manufacturing and Design Innovation Institute (DMDII) in Chicago on March 27, Siemens demonstrated its approach to the “Fourth Industrial Revolution.” At its annual U.S. Innovation Day, Siemens demonstrated real-world applications of digital solutions that it says will reduce costs, increase speed, develop new business models, and improve quality of life.

A manufacturing execution system is often the first step for Industry 4.0 implementation, but most are optimized to serve OEMs. Pico MES Inc. is looking out for the little guy.

ABB Robotics expands manufacturing and training capabilities at Auburn Hills, Mich., facility.

Medical manufacturers use machine learning to boost patient care.

Laser micro-cutting can increase precision and enable contactless cutting for machines, leading to higher-quality products.

With the rapid pace of digitalization, operations are becoming faster and leaner than ever.

Augmented reality makes new robot startups easier and faster, the company says.
