Introduction to the concept of a process twin for tires | What problem does it solve? The process digital twin for tire manufacturing aims to improve the Golden Batch mixing process and, as a result, reduce the number of overall noncompliant products (NCPs) as well as the associated offgrade percent. Through standardized, pre-modeled controls and […]

Using advanced node technology to successfully manufacture a chip is getting harder as chip geometries continue to shrink. Electronic Design Automation (EDA) consumes more compute, storage, and time. Giving your engineers more time to iterate and find bugs in the design and verification phases will result in saving millions in re-spins and lost revenue. Further […]

Factory or intralogistics automation, which can include assembly stations, sortation stations, robots, and conveyors, are programmed and operated by their respective native controllers or programmable logic controllers (PLCs). These controllers execute programs to control physical equipment to accomplish a task—for example, painting a car with the specified color or sorting an item by its barcode […]

Introduction High performance computing (HPC) workloads are becoming complex with the advent of big data, advanced node electronic design automation (EDA) for chip design, and high-precision verification. Enterprises are adopting Amazon Web Services (AWS) to meet the constantly growing compute demands in HPC. Worldwide HPC in the Cloud Forecast 2020–2026 from Hyperion Research (June 2022) […]

Success for cybersecurity in the manufacturing space requires listening to your employees, from their local expertise to their concerns. To not overcomplicate the day-to-day of your operators, it is crucial to form a holistic security strategy that focuses on OT protection as much as it does on IT solutions. Without this conscious approach, security can […]

The Challenge Manufacturers that distribute products and manage inventory at many geographically dispersed sites struggle to predict replenishment timing and quantity accurately. For example, chemical manufacturers bound to vendor-managed inventory agreements make truck rolls to thousands of remote tank sites either when the tank is already empty (too late) or when the tank level is […]
