Mechanical engineering researchers at MIT are using AI and machine learning technologies to enhance the products we use in everyday life.

Those strengths are crucial as they contend with rising materials costs and ever-tightening tolerances.

How companies are doing depends largely on how well their customers are doing. That’s good news for suppliers to industries like medical, aerospace, and electronics.

Knowing that customers’ designs can change fast, a metal fabrication company invests in flexible manufacturing processes that can change quickly, too.

If you ask the workers at NIST’s machine shop what they like most about their jobs, the answer is, invariably, “variety.”

One process is said to be 100 times faster than current technologies; another is said to reduce final part costs by 80 percent.

A Florida company offers comprehensive, end-to-end metal additive manufacturing capabilities.

Researchers believe they’ve taken an important first step toward making customizable, wearable electronics that cost less and are mechanically robust.

OEMs are overcoming problems by working directly with custom adhesive formulators with expertise in coil processing.

Branded replacement parts manufacturers are increasingly functioning like OEMs.

Understanding its customers is crucial to a PCB assembly company’s business model.
