HEIDENHAIN In Action at OMIC

Exciting manufacturing research is happening daily at OMIC R&D (Oregon Manufacturing Innovation Center - Research & Development) and many types of HEIDENHAIN precision measurement components are working inside.

Variance and Volume Advantageously Combined One of a Kind in Series

Up until now, users in the metal and plastics processing industries often faced a difficult choice: with CNC lathes and milling machines, one opted either for the largest possible variance or for large volumes, i.e., high quantities.

Why is Robotics-as-a-Service So Important Now

"Robotics-as-a-service" is a model in which customers purchase automation on an "as-needed" basis. This could be monthly pricing or usage-based pricing. Upfront costs are typically negligible or non-existent.

3DMGQ7-GNSS/INS Dynamic Performance Test Report

GNSS and INS performance accuracy is generally tested in an ideal static environment, and often not representative of end use performance. Dynamic environments introduce error sources such as multipath, obscured sky view, vibration, inconsistent RTK data streams and more.

Case Study - Safe Scoring

LHMT GmbH develops highly specialized tools that fully automate not only the actual scoring and milling process of printed-circuit boards, but also the loading and unloading of the sensitive circuit boards.

Avoiding Unnecessary Downtime in Semiconductor Production

Since the CrackScan and EdgeScan inspection solutions have been proven to increase productivity, a semiconductor producer and technology leader has now opted for the ISRA technology that is unique on the market.

The Role of Smart Glasses as a Safe Return to Work Strategy

Pick-by-Vision adds to smart technology because smart glasses learn manufacturers' parts; they memorize the visual appearance including robots and bin locations. Pick-by-Vision predicts and prevents mis-picks and decides the best part to pick next.
