Overcoming Challenges to Scaling Metal AM Production: An Engineer’s Guide
The promise of metal additive manufacturing (AM) to completely transform how core parts are produced has largely been just that: a promise. The ability to 3D print parts has been deployed across countless industries, but limitations within conventional iterations of metal AM have relegated the technology to use primarily in prototyping or niche use cases.

How a digital manufacturing platform increases your Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE)

whitePaper | January 10, 2023

Now COVID-19 has made it even more pressing to switch to digital, it is high time to say goodbye to manual, paper-based workflows in mass production factories. Digitization is the way forward to Industry 4.0. Because that’s the key to an Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) of world-class level (85%). In reality, most plants today have an OEE closer to 60%. We believe the solution lies in a digital manufacturing platform that supports all plant work processes and utilizes advanced technologies like Machine Learning, IoT, AI and mobile. In this whitepaper, we will show you how such a digital manufacturing platform could work by describing three manufacturing processes: Task Management, Deviation Management and Root Cause Analysis, and how digitalization of these processes can help you achieve an OEE of world-class level.
