Aim: To demonstrate the potential of in-line nanoparticle size measurements using the NanoFlowSizer (NFS) as a PAT method. To achieve real-time process control by establishing automated regulation of ...

Until recently, the evolution of control systems for manufacturing could have been described as slow and steady progress. Controllers became more powerful, networks became faster and more robust, ...

From initial discovery through final training and support, successful automation projects require disciplined execution of each phase including engineering design, procurement, factory testing, and ...

A manufacturing execution system (MES) monitors, tracks, and documents the process of producing goods in a factory. It can also manage resource allocation, operations scheduling, process control, and ...

The process control and instrumentation minor emphasizes developing skills and knowledge in theory, software and in the field. Students graduate ready to solve complex control problems in the chemical ...

Additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, has had a major impact on the contemporary design and production process. First developed in 1988 with the aim of allowing for rapid prototyping, ...

Industry 4.0 will have intelligent manufacturing at its core, advocate Alec M Makdessian and Fabrizio Librizzi. IoT, artificial intelligence (AI), big data, cloud computing, robotics and automation ...
