Falling Demand is Undermining Government Investment in Battery and Semiconductor Tech

by

Improvements in battery and semiconductor technology are essential for automation. Physically instantiated AI systems need power cells that can fuel them for work. Tethering them to long cables is impractical in most situations.

Unfortunately, demand for these ancillary technologies is drying up, despite billions of dollars in direct U.S. government funding. Slowing growth in electric vehicle sales is partly to blame.

Still, pundits are also anticipating Donald Trump’s return to the Whitehouse, dampening sentiment in the science and technology sector’s long-term investment plans. [Read more…] about Falling Demand is Undermining Government Investment in Battery and Semiconductor Tech

The Impact of CNC Machining Across Industries

by

In the realm of modern manufacturing, few technologies have been as transformative as computer numerical control (CNC) machining.

This method, where computer programming guides the movement of factory tools and machinery, has revolutionized how we produce everything from everyday items to complex components.

Its journey from the earliest numerical control systems to today’s sophisticated multi-axis CNC machines encapsulates a saga of innovation and technological advancement.

As industries from aerospace to healthcare continuously evolve, CNC machining stands as a pivotal force driving this change, enabling unparalleled precision, efficiency, and versatility in production. [Read more…] about The Impact of CNC Machining Across Industries
