How manufacturers can harness embedded analytics for scalable, comprehensive analysis in the age of...
In the dynamic manufacturing sector, where competition is intensifying and innovation is recognised as a key differentiator, manufacturers are always looking to enhance operational efficiency, minimise costs and elevate product quality.
How to transform your operation into a smart factory: Building the Foundation
Smart factories are characterised by digital technology, real-time data-driven systems, automation and in some cases, artificial intelligence, and manufacturers with an eye on the future are embarking on journeys of digital transformation.
America’s oldest stiff extrusion manufacturer just cut costs by 75% with large-format 3D printing
It takes a while, but sometimes old dogs do learn new tricks.
JC Steele & Sons (known Down Under as Steele Australia) has been a...
Robotic advances offer new hope for inflammatory disease patients
A pioneering study conducted by the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute (WEHI) has introduced fully automated diagnostic methods, featuring liquid handling robots, that hold the potential to improve the lives of millions worldwide who are afflicted with inflammatory diseases.
How to transform your operation into a smart factory: Taking a holistic approach
Smart factories are the future of Australian manufacturing. Characterised by digital technology, real-time data-driven systems, automation and artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML), the modern smart factory is an achievable goal for manufacturers of all sizes, across all industries.
To compete globally, Australia must rethink the foundations of industrial automation
Australia’s manufacturing sector is at a pivotal moment. Competitive pressure, sustainability expectations, energy costs, and a new wave of digital tools are converging, exposing the limits of the automation approaches that have defined industrial production for decades.
How MHE is innovating Australia’s material handling industry
Australia’s manufacturing industry is undergoing significant changes, with a focus on reshoring production, strengthening supply chains, and integrating new technologies.
GridBeyond highlights role of technology in navigating energy market swings
Energy price volatility continues to pose challenges for manufacturers and other energy-intensive industries, particularly as electricity markets experience more frequent and unpredictable price swings.
Driving the renaissance of the manufacturing industry through metal 3D printing
Manufacturers using welding techniques suffer from limitations in realising complex structures because of the limited process of building one layer at a time – this is because subsequent layers are laminated after complete solidification preventing the molten metal from flowing down. As a result, a cooling period is necessary, and the circumstances that can be laminated are restricted to certain examples.
Driving waste out of your industry: Interoperability’s affinity to waste reduction
There is no denying that the manufacturing sector has a problem with waste reduction and we do not need an environmental scientist pointing it out in order to realize the issue.
