It is only fair to say that dentistry has evolved since it was introduced. Incorporating technology fuels this evolution into branches of medical sciences like dentistry.

We know technology and the application of science towards making life easier. Thus, incorporating technology into dentistry has made life in this field more accessible and faster while pushing the field to evolve constantly.

The change that technology brings to a field does not stop as it always looks for ways to optimize the previous solutions it has proffered to develop a better and more effective solution. [Read more…] about How 3D Printing is Revolutionizing Dentistry

Geek+ launches ‘ground-breaking’ four-way shuttle warehouse storage and picking solution

by Leave a Comment

Geek+, the warehouse automation specialist, has launched its multilevel storage and retrieval system: Sky-Storage & Ground-Pick.

The solution uses Geek+’s X-series four-way shuttle robots to boost storage density while devoting the ground floor to picking operations entrusted to the flagship P800 robots.

On the upper levels of the warehouse, the four-way shuttles utilize every inch of vertical space for pallet storage and quick and flexible replenishment of the lower level. Below them, picking robots move shelves, pallets, and racks containing the most in-demand goods.

Should you invest in Dogecoin in 2022? Things to consider

by Leave a Comment

Before deciding to buy Dogecoins, it is important to know some basic details about cryptocurrencies.

They are also known as virtual currencies or virtual coins, which means that there is no physical version of that currency, although many images depicting cryptocurrencies in metal coins are circulating on the Internet.

You have to understand cryptocurrencies as something similar to digital files that we store on a computer or in the cloud. It’s not the same, but just to give you an idea. [Read more…] about Should you invest in Dogecoin in 2022? Things to consider

Crypto: Reshaping Future

Several technological advances have been hailed as game-changers in the corporate future. Organizations have depended on technology for decades to function more efficiently and securely.

Blockchain is undeniably exciting. While opinions will always range on which technology will have the most impact.

Transactions are secured in a secure digital ledger that can be audited. Keyless signature systems and the ability to track products from farm to table are just two of the many benefits. [Read more…] about Crypto: Reshaping Future

Scientists research ‘matter waves’ to shine light on post electronics future

by Leave a Comment

Most modern technologies owe their success to advances in electronics. These devices harness the flow of electrons in different ways to create computers, charge batteries, light-up displays, and move motors.

Now researchers are starting to explore ways to harness the flow of waves of whole atoms, called matter waves, to enable new kinds of sensors, computers, and scientific research.

This new field has been named atomtronics, owing to the focus on finding ways to move whole atoms rather than electrons in traditional electronics devices. [Read more…] about Scientists research ‘matter waves’ to shine light on post electronics future

UPS installs AutoStore system in warehouse and increases capacity by 400 percent

by Leave a Comment

When UPS Global Logistics & Distribution in Europe needed to add capacity at a fulfillment center in the Netherlands, the team used an innovation driven approach to think inside the box and find a better way to utilize the existing space rather than build another warehouse.

The solution was implementing a leading automated storage and retrieval system (ASRS).

Automated storage and retrieval systems are revolutionizing traditional warehousing and order fulfillment. Sprawling buildings filled with tall racks, wide rows and loud forklifts are being replaced by grids and bins with robotic arms and workstations.

IAM Robotics partners with Tompkins Robotics to develop order fulfillment solution

by Leave a Comment

IAM Robotics has joined forces with Tompkins Robotics to create a new robotic application to automate the exit process of order fulfillment.

Developed by Tompkins, the new application enhances the current t-Sort system with the addition of xChange to autonomously remove completed order containers from sortation and replace them with empty order containers at one time. xChange is based on IAM Robotics’ latest robot, Atlas.

Thanks to the industry-leading features of xChange, companies are even closer to experiencing human-free automated sortation. [Read more…] about IAM Robotics partners with Tompkins Robotics to develop order fulfillment solution

Why Manufacturers Should Consider Using a Cloud-based MES Platform

by Leave a Comment

Traditional manufacturing execution systems are deployed on a single machine that might be networked to a handful of terminals inside of a machine shop.

While this made sense in an era before widespread Internet adoption, it’s hopelessly dated today. Few people have the technology needed to turn their smart devices into antique telnet clients, and there are even less who would want to.

Cloud-based technology is a much better alternative, but adoption has been surprisingly slow. That’s causing many industry sectors to play a dizzyingly fast game of catch-up. [Read more…] about Why Manufacturers Should Consider Using a Cloud-based MES Platform

Cheetah Mobile launches ‘smart vending robot’
