From order to arena in 14 days Team Valkyrie, a top-tier BattleBots competitor, faced a critical deadline—custom CNC-machined parts needed to arrive in Las Vegas with just three weeks to spare. Fictiv tapped its distributed manufacturing network spanning the US, Mexico, and China to source, produce, and deliver a $20K order in two weeks, giving […]

Artificial intelligence in manufacturing is a grouping of distinct technologies applied across a wide range of production contexts—from computer vision systems inspecting parts on a moving line, to physics-informed AI accelerating structural simulation, and demand-sensing models optimizing supply chain inventory. The term “industrial AI” has emerged to describe the specific subset of these applications that […]

Injection molding tolerances are acceptable variations in size for part features and overall dimensions. They are expressed as plus or minus (±) values in millimeters or inches and vary by the type of material that’s used and the overall size of the part. Part designers add tolerances to 2D drawing files to tell an injection […]
Tool
Injection-molded plastic part tolerances are primarily driven by material shrinkage and nominal dimension, not the molding process alone. Different resins shrink at different rates as they cool, so the same nominal dimension can require a tighter or looser tolerance depending on the material you choose. Tolerance standards give you a consistent way to account for […]

Most engineers have a solid feel for what CNC machining can do. But far fewer have a clear picture of what to do when conventional CNC process capabilities are exceeded by the need for tighter tolerances, finer surface finishes, or hardened work material that quickly wears through machine tools. When that happens, manufacturing engineers move […]

CNC machining is commonly used to manufacture various medical devices—surgical instruments, fixtures, structural elements, fluid-handling parts, and components that attach to or form part of a tissue-contacting implant. The machining operations themselves are familiar shop-floor work. The practical difference in medical device machining is that material definition, surface condition, traceability, inspection, and documentation aren’t just […]
