From reactive inspection to predictive intelligence Welding quality has traditionally depended on post-process inspection – visual checks, ultrasonic tests, and rework once a defect is already p...
Artificial intelligence may dominate boardroom discussions and media headlines, but for manufacturers and engineers, the reality is more complex....
AI-driven programming has moved from proof-of-concept to production reality - and CloudNC’s latest release, CAM Assist 2.0, marks another milestone in that evolution. ...
The countdown is on to Blechexpo & Schweisstec 2025 (Stuttgart, Oct 21–24) - Europe’s premier showcase for sheet-metal, welding, and forming innovation. But this year, one theme dominates the conversa...
AI in manufacturing 2025 continues to accelerate. This week’s launches reveal how industrial AI is moving from pilots to daily production - across software, robotics, and compute....
China’s leading EV makers have transformed vehicle plants into software-defined, sensor-rich “AI car factories,” combining robotics, computer vision, digital twins, and real-time optimization....
Hybrid manufacturing - the integration of additive (3D printing) and subtractive (CNC machining) processes - is no longer just a lab curiosity....
Traditional CAM systems have long depended on human programmers encoding toolpaths, feeds, and speeds based on rules, heuristics, and experience. ...
In sheet metal fabrication, profitability often comes down to material efficiency. Every percentage point of scrap reduction translates directly into cost savings, margin protection, and sustainabilit...
Welcome to our weekly AI + Machine Tools round-up. Each week we scan the global CNC, sheet metal, robotics, and welding sector...
