Autonomous Machine Vision system increases accuracy and cuts waste

03/08/2022

The BSH Home Appliance Group is the largest home appliance company in Europe. BSH wanted to implement a quality assurance system to spot defects early on and reduce material waste, in order to cut costs while benefitting the environment. The company found the perfect partner in Inspekto, which invented Autonomous Machine Vision (AMV).

From science fiction to reality – what is driving urban air mobility?

30/06/2022

Urban air mobility (UAM) – or flying cars – is no longer the stuff of science fiction. In fact, the reality is much closer than many realise, with some industry players citing plans to start operating as early as 2024. David Latimer, CEO of Magnomatics, explains what makes this possible.

How transparency is helping design engineers overcome five key challenges

21/06/2022

They may have been developed to better manage fluids on production lines, but transparent pressure vessels are increasingly being seen as ideal testing environments for research and development. With orders from blue-chip companies, including Apple research organisations like Boston Scientific and major universities, Engineer Loris Medart from SR-TEK discusses how vessels designed for use in industry are revolutionising R&D.

High-speed ultrasonic scanning identifies minute defects in speciality metals and alloys
