Although the additive manufacturing (AM) technology has evolved substantially over the last decades, the overall end-to-end process involves many complex steps and still today requires manual input ...
The Internet of Things (IoT) can help SMEs to increase efficiency and reach agile production. Recently, as an IoT expert I was given the opportunity to share my vision on the matter with the DIH² ...
The use of (real-time) data to adjust production processes - in machining the term is 'adaptive machining' - is the future of production. This is made possible by the increased availability of sensors ...
Fitting custom interior doors on large construction sites is far from easy. To get the job done as correctly and efficiently as possible, Kulapro examined the options for an augmented reality-based ...
Innovative technologies making companies stronger and more competitive for the future also have a lot to offer to the machining industry. The Interreg project 'Machining 4.0' translates the broad ...
Controlling and adjusting production machining through the use of data - including real-time data - is called 'adaptive processing'. It’s the future of production and is made possible by the increased ...
On the online platform ‘Model-based machining’ you can find calculation models that use information from tool life curves for finding the most economical cutting speed. This lets you select the most cost-effective machining process. We are organising training courses to help with the practical implementation of the calculation models.
Tool monitoring is needed in the milling process in order to be able to automate it and to ensure the quality of the products. This is not an easy task where micromilling tools are involved, but ...
When striving for an Industry 4.0 production system, the first requirement is to connect the production machines within a network. In a machining production environment with a wide variety of machines ...
Vibrational response plays an essential role in the performance of machine tools and machining processes, which directly affects the material removal rate and workpiece surface quality, as well as ...
Today many market segments are moving towards automobile requirements: making the reduction of production costs sustainable, and achieving quality/delivery goals close to perfection while proposing ...
