Revolutionizing Grading with Precision Machine Control & GPS Technology La Vergne, United States - April 1, 2026 / ...

Process control is moving forward as quickly as data collection and processing can carry it, and a recent research effort demonstrated how fast and flexible, and adaptive, machining operations can be.

Precision grinding of bearing rings and rollers is a well established process, one that has been applied, tested, and analyzed over many years. Until recently, the common view among many grinding ...

Overlay control based on DI metrology of optical targets has been the primary basis for run-to-run process control for many years. In previous work we described a scenario where optical overlay ...

Closing the casting-to-machining divide reduces scrap, speeds production and lowers costs without compromising quality.

Digital control theory, design methodology, and techniques for controller implementation on digital computers. Discrete system modeling, system identification, and adaptive control methods. Single and ...

Manufacturing process controls include all systems and software that exert control over production processes. Control systems include process sensors, data processing equipment, actuators, networks to ...

Process control can be viewed as the executive portion of a unit process. It provides the means to direct a process so that it produces the desired results. It is complementary to the role played by ...

Humans had to carry out all their machining processes by hand for centuries. Even precision tools had to be maneuvered very carefully, inch by inch, by people holding the devices personally. That all ...

Additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, has had a major impact on the contemporary design and production process. First developed in 1988 with the aim of allowing for rapid prototyping, ...

Scale-up involves increasing pump sizes, reactor volumes, and flow rates—but the process control logic and system ...

There is no single solution, but there plenty of room for improvement—and lots of investment around better use of data. Equipment and tools vendors are starting to focus on data as a means of ...
