In the factory of the future, software will be every bit as important to product assembly as robots, riveters and nutrunners. This eBook will provide a comprehensive look at data flow in today’s assembly plant.
Industry 4.0 is underway. Data analytics, augmented reality, generative design, artificial intelligence, cobots, additive manufacturing and other technologies are already helping manufacturers increase efficiency, lower prices, and improve service, delivery and quality. And there’s more to come.
You must learn to walk before you can run. That aphorism is as true for product assembly as it is for learning how to draw or play golf. Before manufacturers can implement advanced automation technologies, they must first master their parts and processes. This eBook will provide information to help engineers plan for investments and improve their assembly operations before deploying advanced technologies.
People are flying again. Some 55 million people boarded passenger jets in May 2021. That’s an increase of 7.5 million people from April 2021 and a staggering 47.4 million from April 2020. Aerospace OEMs and their suppliers have weathered the storm, and—thankfully—have taken a long-term view on manufacturing investments. Automation is helping them cut into their massive order backlogs. In this exclusive eBook from ASSEMBLY, you’ll learn how aerospace assemblers are applying leading-edge technologies to improve output, quality and safety.
Lightweighting is one way that automakers are trying to make vehicles more energy efficient. For every 100 pounds taken out of a vehicle, fuel economy increases by 1 to 2 percent. To cut weight, engineers are incorporating a raft of new materials in vehicle designs, including composites, plastics, aluminum and high-strength steels.
One hardly needs sophisticated market research to conclude that the global market for medical devices will continue to rise for the foreseeable future. One need only open a newspaper to read the latest data on the COVID-19 pandemic.
