The Digital Thread

In the final instalment of the Manufacturing Robotics Report we showcase global robotics projects and the various applications and industries robotics can serve

In the fourth chapter of the Manufacturing Robotics Report we examine the cutting-edge systems and technologies that enable the acceleration of the robotics industry. Covering industrial robotics as an innovation driver, manufacturing as a service, key manufacturing processes, and the advantages of digital manufacturing for robotics, this chapter takes you from robots that manufacture to manufacturing robots.

The third instalment of the Manufacturing Robotics Report focuses on hardware, covering sensors, central processing units, control systems, motors and actuators, and more, alongside common challenges.

The latest instalment of a five part series, this article takes a deep dive into materials covering the difference between traditional and soft robotics, a new generation of robotics materials, sustainability of robotics materials, applications for soft robotics, and more.

First in the five part series, this article provides an introduction to the current state of robotics technology and provides you with an overview of what to expect from the remaining articles.

Digital manufacturing is fast; it provides excellent process transparency and design flexibility, but how exactly is that impacting the fashion industry daily? This blog takes a look at three trends built on the foundations of digital manufacturing.

3D printing is often a great entry route to prototyping plastic parts mainly because it is a quick, flexible, and cost-effective process. But what happens once you are ready to move forward with your product development plan?

In recent years there has been an increase in the utilisation of robots and AI, the pandemic has only propelled this. This blog touches on some of the current robotics and AI trends.

With analysts predicting a market value of $1 trillion by 2040, the space industry is thriving. But what are the key trends that need to be on your radar?

As the Space sector continues to innovate and develop, adoption of digital manufacturing technologies to support speed, repeatability, and consistency are key to the future success of the industry. In this panel discussion, three of our in-house experts answer your questions on key materials, options for meeting critical quality standards, the future technologies of the industry, and more.

In this blog we look back on the last four years of manufacturing - the challenges that were overcome, and how this has prepared the sector to meet new challenges head on in the future. Results are reflective of the yearly manufacturing survey sent out to the community in partnership with IMechE.
