How virtual reality is changing the manufacturing game
It's no longer just for gaming! Virtual Reality (VR), sometimes referred to as Augmented Reality (AR), is shaking things up across all industries, including manufacturing. While the technology is currently being employed mainly by large manufacturers, like additive manufacturing and the cobots before it, growing acceptance of the technology is likely to cause prices to drop, allowing small and medium-sized manufacturers to take advantage of its powers as well.
Workcred releases manufacturing credentials report
To help strengthen the quality, value and effectiveness of manufacturing credentials in the U.S., Workcred, an American National Standards Institute (ANSI) affiliate, has released a report funded by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Hollings Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP) examining how credentials are currently used in hiring and retention practices, and how credentialing can be improved to advance the manufacturing industry.

DEWALT announces the expansion of its Metal Tool Storage line, including top chests, workbenches, and rolling cabinets ranging from 26-to 52-inches wide as well as 18-inches to 21-inches deep for ample storage solutions. Each is made in the USA with global materials.
GPL-V and GPL-H Planetary Gearboxes
The GPL-V (shaft) and GPL-H (hollow) are the company's lowest backlash (≤ 0.1 arc minute) planetary gearboxes for horizontal and vertical robotic applications. A patented design guarantees that the backlash will not increase over the life time of the gearbox.
Game shop takes 3D printing, laser cutting into “infinite realm”
A game and hobby shop in Girard, Ohio, has taken 3D printing and laser cutting into an "infinite realm." The business, Infinite Realms, started with three men making pieces like rock formations, oil pits and satellites, which were sold online.
Proven ROI in the tracking of tools, production tooling and fixtures
For a business owner or manager it's a frustrating and difficult task to track, manage and keep records on the hand-held tools, production tooling and fixtures, dies and castings that are the lifeblood of your operation. Each category of tool has specific tracking and accounting issues that when addressed have been proven to show a significant return on investment.
MEFO-BOX System
Today, parts cleaning mostly means to fulfill defined cleanliness specifications. In order to clean as economically as possible, the potential of the cleaning system needs to be fully exploited. This is often prevented by the cleaning container. With the MEFO-BOX system, Metallform has developed a solution whose well thought-out design offers key advantages.
