November 20196 MANUFACTURINGTECHNOLOGYINSIGHTSSmart innovations, ergonomic operational cycles, and advanced materials are the threads that make up the fabric of optimized manufacturing technologies. The field of advanced materials has relentlessly presented groundbreaking ideas fuelling the growth of new businesses that have truly created an impact on society. Until now, the advanced materials have discreetly functioned behind the scenes to build better computers, robots, and machinery that simplifies the way of life. As the complexity of manufacturing processes increase, more and more innovations of advanced materials have collaborated with technology to provide solutions for simplification. Disruptive innovations including analytics, IoT, and AI, work in sync with the production of advanced engineering materials such as additives manufacturing, plastic composite materials, 3D printed metals, polymers, and ceramics. The overhaul of the industry is continuing the legacy of constant change. A complimenting flipside persists with each new application of the technology, and advanced materials are no different. Today, the companies are in constant efforts to tackle these issues in a timely and cost effective manner. The solutions envisioned by the pioneers to optimize the efficiency and recognize the ebbs and flows in their respective fields are discussed in this issue. Among these, some solutions have caught the attention of the market as they comprised of an array of chemical, physical, and biological tweaks to existing materials and some new ones built from the ground up. Industries skillfully bind a range of fields from nanotechnology to metallurgy for producing end products with real differences. The focus at present is fixated to create better-performing materials across a broad spectrum of AEMs. A benchmark has been built for composite materials that are capable of an unprecedented level of flexibility and accuracy. These products include 3D printed metals for MedTech uses and the pristine single-layer defect-free graphene for real-world applications. The introduction of nanoscale metrology and imaging instruments to a broad market has also taken a strong stand in the present scenario. Many more examples like mass manufacturing of implementing aerospace precision and military spec materials describe the turbulent yet, halcyon development of the industry. These innovations not only promise efficiency but, embodies an opulent transition to the next step in advanced materials, whatever it may be.This special edition sheds light on the recent mechanisms and developments of advanced materials in manufacturing processes.
