For metallic alloys in aerospace, machine learning can make the development of additive manufacturing (AM) processes both faster and cheaper. In collaboration with the University of Sheffield Advanced ...

Equipment maintenance, quality assurance, and supply chain optimization are as critical to industrial and manufacturing processes today as they were more than a century ago, but doing these ...

In the newly established AI Production Network, scientists are researching how artificial intelligence, AI, can optimise production processes. Many steps and facets of industrial production are being ...

Laser-based processes for metals are considered to be particularly versatile in industry. Lasers can be used, for example, to precision-weld components together or produce more complex parts using 3D ...

It is only by gaining an overview of the entire production process, right down to the chip level, that today's metalworking operations can achieve the transparency needed to uncover weak spots, ...

In contrast to the natural world, factories have evolved in leaps, from the advent of industrialism in the 18th century to automation in modern times. Along with the addition of steam power and ...

Modern machine design involves software-controlled functionality and user interfaces, so traditional spreadsheets might not be enough to handle the increasing complexity of today’s industrial ...

Early efforts to prevent machine-related injuries were focused on the development of engineering specification standards. These specification standards laid the foundation for further requirements ...
