Natural disaster plan a must
While everyone hopes for the best, it's smart to plan for the worst. There are five areas of a manufacturing business that should be evaluated to stay prepared for whatever may come your way.
Grinding ceramic medical parts requires (diamond) grit, patience
Grinding ceramics is unlike most other grinding operations. These superhard, brittle materials need a slow and steady hand.
Technological advances make laser machining more practical
Over the past 30 years, laser machining has evolved into a formidable industrial practice. Gone are the large, expensive, finicky machines. Now fiber lasers, with their compact size, high reliability and affordable cost, have taken hold.
Shop-floor data analysis not negotiable
Like it or not, Industry 4.0 is here. The networked nature of our cars, appliances and, yes, machine tools will only increase. Choosing to ignore that fact won't keep you from producing parts, but it could mean that at least some of those parts end up being produced at a more efficient, technologically savvy machine shop.
Getting a chatter diagnosis: General Industry Coverage
Puzzled by the appearance of a choppy, spiral-shaped set of chatter marks showing up on a workpiece, a shop sought a diagnosis from Jeffrey Badger, Ph.D., who writes the Ask the Grinding Doc column in Cutting Tool Engineering.

Avoiding Workholding Woes: Design & Engineering
Whether a fixture is hydraulic, pneumatic or mechanical, or whether it's built internally or subcontracted to others, it's important to understand your true costs and to consider workholding early in the part-design process.
Machine tool controls with AI learn on the job
Advanced machine tool controls infused with artificial intelligence (AI) can learn about your machining processes. With this knowledge, a CNC can automatically take action that boosts machining speed and accuracy, as well as slash unplanned downtime for maintenance.
Working less can boost productivity
With fewer employees handling more duties, workplace stress can take a toll on productivity. Keith Jennings finds a simple solution.
17 mistakes U.S. manufacturers make that kill employee engagement
That employee engagement decisively contributes to manufacturing success has long been known. However, many studies show there is a deep and broad lack of employee engagement in our nation's manufacturing industry. This lack is known as the Engagement Gap.
