November - 20206 MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGY INSIGHTSAlthough the metal manufacturing industry is centuries old, its ever-evolving nature and the affinity toward adopting state-of-the-art technologies have helped it efficiently stand the test of times. The industry has gained momentum by adapting to machinery and process automation by reskilling its workforce and digitalizing the machining processes. To meet the demands of its dynamic and expanding customer base in aerospace, automobiles, construction, and energy, the metal fabrication industry is equipping itself with newfound technologies and methods. For example, the recent debutant in the industry, 3D Printing, has significantly reduced metal manufacturing costs and time, empowered freedom in designing, and minimized wastage of resources, both human and material. Quite amazingly, organizations can indulge in creating the most intricate designs without facing the challenges, they would otherwise face with traditional manufacturing processes. Organizations are also adopting nearshoring of manufacturing solutions as a new method of doing business. Though outsourced labor costs do not bore a hole in the pockets of businesses, the increase in logistics costs do. Thus, many metal fabrication manufacturers have begun operating their manufacturing facilities locally rather than outsourcing them.As the metal fabrication industry is continually emerging, the future has even more innovative and versatile trends in store. Highlighting new developments in the manufacturing landscape, this edition of Manufacturing Technology Insights features a list of vendors that are at the top in their game, coupled with insightful articles from various thought leaders. We hope the valuable information and cutting-edge solutions from leading companies will help you make informed choices for your manufacturing endeavors.Let us know your thoughts.
