While AGVs and AMRs can bring significant benefits in terms of efficiency and productivity, they also introduce new safety risks that must be addressed. In a series of blogs, we will explore AGV safety from multiple angles. The first blog will focus on the legislative framework.

Tool wear is one of the time-varying factors during machining operations that influence the process parameters and the quality of the final parts being made. Typically, cutting tools follow a sequence of wear evolution, starting from initial wear, over to gradual degradation, accelerated wear and ...

The QRM manufacturing strategy enables companies to reduce lead times and cut indirect costs in high-mix-low-volume environments. To make people in our country more aware about this strategy, Sirris regularly organises QRM Silver training. Upon successful completion of the training, participants ...

Machining processes are the most common ways to produce a component or a part by removing excess material from a block of material. The quality of the part depends on how stable the process is. The stability and precision of the milling process are influenced by several factors. In this second ...

The 2023 edition of the Hannover Messe (Hanover Fair), the world’s greatest industrial trade fair, was the first one without limitations since the outbreak of the pandemic. The fair was now fully accessible again to visitors from all over the world. In addition to digitization in general and a ...

The QRM production strategy ensures that companies in a high-mix-low-volume environment are able to shorten their lead times and save indirect costs. To make the strategy better known in Belgium, Sirris is organising QRM Silver training multiple times a year. Anyone successfully completing the ...

How can the mechanical and metallurgical industries contribute with solutions, materials and process sciences to carbon neutrality and energy cost reduction in heat treatment'? This is the focus of the symposium, organised by VWT and A3TS in Antwerp on 11 May 2023.

Over the years, various calculation models have been developed that allow machining processes to be analysed and even optimised. These calculation models can be run on the online platform modelgebaseerdbewerken.be by means of simple forms. In a series of blog posts, we explain how you can use this ...

Machining processes are the most common ways to produce a component or a part by removing excess material from a block of material. The quality of the part depends on how stable the process is. The stability here has two components: one involving the physical machine-tool system and the other ...

To pass on the knowledge and expertise built up during the Interreg project BHC21 to companies so that it can be exploited, Sirris has built a demonstrator cell that shows the benefits of digital operator support. This was presented during the Open Lab Day on 8 March. A look back.
