The pandemic has undoubtedly changed the way we work, but for OPEN MIND Technologies, undergoing an extensive online tendering and prove-out process against its competitors was an exciting new challenge. RE Thompson has ambitious plans for its manufacturing facility and implementing the correct CAM system was seen as a critical decision requiring due diligence for the subcontract manufacturer.
Digital manufacturing provides them with the means to meet these demands. Visual Components is a leading supplier of manufacturing simulation software. By helping manufacturers gain a deeper understanding of their processes, our products reduce waste and inefficiency, increase capacity and enable shorter lead times. And now, as a result of our partnership with NVIDIA, simulation from Visual Components can help manufacturers shape and start on their own digital transformation.
Many waterworks stations and agriculture applications use compact controllers for pump or ventilation systems, which are often installed in hard-to-reach or remote places.
To ensure all medicines are produced to the highest quality, pharmaceutical manufacturers around the world are subjected to strict regulations. The problem is, monitoring the conditions in a manufacturing facility 24/7 requires high-end, often costly networking technology. Here Ian Loudon, international sales and marketing manager at remote monitoring instrumentation manufacturer. Omniflex, discusses how temperature monitoring systems can be cost effective, reliable and compliant with regulatory standards.
To strengthen its position even further in the area of stationary systems, Hainbuch, the manufacturer of high-precision clamping devices, has acquired the Docklock zero-point clamping system from Vischer & Bolli AG in Switzerland.
In addition to optimizing existing product groups, GEMÜ is bringing new products in the area of electrical position indicators and combi switchboxes to market.
BOCK flexxCO2NTROL technology is a new, efficient compressor capacity regulator that allows the capacity of transcritical BOCK CO2 compressors to be adjusted almost stepless to the current capacity requirements of the system. In doing so, the regulation covers a unique range between 100 percent and 25 percent capacity, depending on the operating conditions.
Hexagon’s Manufacturing Intelligence division today announced the launch of its second Sixth Sense start-up challenge: digital reality and visualisation for a sustainable future.
Panasonic Industry is launching a new Bluetooth® 5 Low Energy (LE) module that includes a uFL connector which enables the use of an external antenna. This is useful for radio-unfavourable applications where difficult housing conditions shield radio waves and an external antenna needs to be used.
