Turning Data Into Decisions October 10, 2019 How do we turn all the data collected at each step of the manufacturing process into something usable?
Continuous Insulation Resistance Testing Boosts Motor Productivity September 11, 2019 For decades, plant personnel have performed insulation resistance tests with handheld megohmmeters to prevent motor failures that lead to costly unplanned shutdowns, failure-to-produce penalties and rewinding repairs. However, these tests only provide a “snapshot” of motor health. In a matter of days, motor windings and cables exposed to moisture, chemicals, contaminants or vibration can be compromised and fail at startup.
Cobots and Simulation Software for Non-Destructive Evaluation September 26, 2023 NASA's Langley Research Center is using collaborative robots (cobots) and RoboDK software to automate and enhance the inspection of aircraft fuselages. By utilizing dual cobots, heating elements, and infrared cameras, NASA has significantly improved inspection speed, accuracy, and coverage.
