Robots. Artificial Intelligence. Complex algorithms that take decisions for you before you even knew they needed to be taken. Machines that ‘talk’ to each other and take action about the goods they are producing. Vehicles that drive themselves, and alert you to the fact that they are about to break down before they actually do so.

We launched a new product back in late 2019 called GrabCAD Shop. The idea was simple. We wanted to build a solution to make the 3D printing work order management process better—less manual, more integrated, and more cost effective.Now, GrabCAD Shop is the only 3D printing work order management software on the market. It’s the only solution built specifically for 3D print shops. It’s proven to streamline 3D printing workflows, easy to set up with little to no IT involvement, and secure.

In order to achieve digital manufacturing through Industry 4.0, it is critical to aggregate and manage the huge amount of data generated in the factory by Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) sensors and devices. Having connected machines, workers and systems is just the start of the digital transformation journey. To extract real value from this connectivity, a digital twin of machines and processes have to be modeled in a standardized manner which will help aggregate heterogeneous data and provide valuable insights to drive productivity and efficiency. The interoperability and flexibility of different assets is an important challenge due to the volume and variety of data that needs to be modeled. This paper will go over Industry 4.0 compliant data modeling principles using the MongoDB Smart Factory testbed as an example. We will model the data using MongoDB Atlas in a way that fulfills requirements and needs of Industry 4.0: interoperability, flexibility and scalability.

When selecting a manufacturer for plastic components, look for a partner who offers complete plastic solutions. Rather than providing just the base molding services, they should guide your team with project management from the initial design stage to the delivery of the finished product. At AdvanTech Plastics, we offer customers start to finish injection, insert and two-shot molding solutions.
