As mentioned in my previous blog post about Hannover Fair here are some interesting pictures from the fair.

The first one is from the introduction video for the Virtual Commissioning showcase which we run every hour. Take a closer look and you will realize the move from virtual too real in the picture.

Demographic change and healthcare is one of the megatrends engineers all around the world looking for innovations for. People are living longer and want to remain mobile in old age. One piece of a solution for this, are unique implants like artificial knee and hip joints. These implants are mostly made out of titanium and cobalt chrome, as they are very durable. The challenge is to manufacture and machine sophisticated and unique implants in a short time from these difficult materials.

It’s all about integration. Imaging you are running a job shop using highly flexible machine tools. You manufacture in small lot sizes and need to adjust your NC programs quite often due to product changes. How do you keep track of all the product changes? And how do you ensure, that the updated NC programs and information about the required tools are transferred from the planning department to the right machine tool on the shop floor?

Siemens merges the virtual and physical worlds … and you are getting it for free.

The integrative part is the post processor which connects the NX CAM system with the SINUMERIK controller of your machine tool. It allows you to create specific G-code for your SINUMERIK controller. Take a look at my previous post about the Virtual Machine Tool for more details about this technology.

 

 

Andreas Saar, head of the Tecnomatix part manufacturing solution group, talks about the NX CAM – SINUMERIK advantage program and the benefits for our customers.

Are you like me and want to clean up stuff you currently don’t need and place it into storage container? Most of them are transparent so that I could see directly what’s in it. I do have several ones at home, some contain Christmas decoration, ski clothes or other stuff which I do not need all the time. Did you ever think about how they are manufactured?

Mostly injection molding machines are used to heat up the plastic material and squeeze it into a mold.
