#Increased Speed

[joyandella-123]

Some great advancements come from modern machine controllers

Modern metal fabricating machine controllers have significantly impacted various aspects of the manufacturing process, including workflow, speed, efficiency, accuracy, and manageability. Here's how:

Workflow Improvement: Advanced controllers have software that allows for better planning and sequencing of jobs. This integration can streamline the workflow, reducing the time between design and production. Controllers with advanced user interfaces make it easier for operators to input data, understand machine status, and make quick adjustments, leading to a smoother production process. Operators have a number of options for job entry, such as from a CAD file automatically, manual iinput, or scanning from a paper job sheet.

Increased Speed: Modern controllers have greater speed thanks to improved processing power and algorithms. This allows for faster execution of complex tasks and reduces the cycle time for each part. High-speed processing also enables machines to operate at higher speeds without compromising precision—in fact in many cases, precision is increased along with speed.

Enhanced Efficiency: These controllers often include features that optimize energy use and reduce waste. For example, predictive maintenance capabilities can forecast machine failures before they occur, minimizing downtime. The controller’s software can generate a plan to use multiple stations on a part with multiple bends, for example, allowing the setup to happen in one step instead of many. Or, if a laser cutter is cutting metal plate, it plans the job so that a the laser head moves to different cut areas to allow densely-cut areas to cool before the machine cuts nearby again.

Improved Accuracy: The precision of modern metal fabricating machines has significantly increased with the advent of sophisticated controllers. These systems can precisely control the movement of the machine, leading to higher-quality products with tighter tolerances. Advanced sensors and feedback systems ensure that the machine's performance aligns closely with the programmed specifications, reducing errors.

Better Manageability: Modern controllers are often part of larger networked systems that include data collection and analysis capabilities. This allows for better monitoring and management of the production process. Operators can track machine performance, predict maintenance needs, and optimize production schedules based on real-time data. Additionally, integration with other systems (like ERP or shop planning software) allows for better overall plant management and coordination.

Adaptability and Flexibility: Contemporary controllers enable machines to be more adaptable to different types of jobs. Quick setup changes and easy reprogramming allow for shorter runs of custom or specialized parts, making the production process more flexible to meet diverse customer demands. We live in an age of many short run jobs.

Safety Enhancements: Modern controllers also contribute to safer working environments. They can include safety features that prevent operator error and protect against machine malfunctions. Better precision and control also reduce the likelihood of accidents due to machine errors.

Connectivity and Smart Features: With the advent of Industry 4.0, these controllers are increasingly connected and smart. They can be integrated into a wider industrial network, allowing for remote monitoring and control, predictive maintenance, and enhanced data analytics.

Overall, the impact of modern metal fabricating machine controllers on the manufacturing landscape is profound, leading to more efficient, accurate, and flexible production processes. This technological evolution is a key driver in the industry's ongoing efforts to optimize productivity and quality.

Since Peri has problems with flight does irep also have them or is he fine

Irep's a talented flyer actually! While Peri's wings feels heavy for him to use, Irep's are light as a feather. He's an expert at navigating the air, and can outdo even a Pixie in flight!!

This has made him all sorts of popular and unpopular among jock-like fairies.

this stardew update is the most lovingly crafted update yet. i’m only on summer day 10 so i haven’t seen everything yet, but i have 1k+ hours total in this game and these updates are everything i ever wanted. i mean even just the journal icon showing you a running count of stones/wood/enemies you’ve collected/defeated WITHOUT opening the journal??? wow. the freakin iridium scythe that harvests crops???? FINALLY a sonar bobber? better bait options?!?

like any non-aesthetic mod i’ve ever had has basically been replaced by this update

basilisks and battlements looks so much fun! is it the same rules as D&D? (do you have D&D in your world?)

I love the artwork I wanna see more

I personally haven’t heard of D&D, but there’s a lot of cool games in the TTRPG world so I’m sure it’s fun. Not sure how similar they are though!

And the artwork is fun - helps with the immersion of the story. My vintage copy (which, I think I posted a picture of here before) has some gnarly monsters. Check this guy out!

i’m looking at steam reviews for the new planet coaster and reading comments on them and the amount of people saying things near identical to this are insane

since when is a 1.0 full release expected to have bugs and issues ?? since when do we accept this ?? a full release is meant to have zero bugs and issues, actually. it’s not a beta, it’s not early access, it should be Finished, polished, cleaned up of all that stuff, ready to receive updates with new content if the devs choose. i’m just gobsmacked that decades of games being busted on launch has just led us to people finding it so normal it’s expected.

you shouldn’t expect games to be fully functional…. you should expect to buy them at full price and then wait weeks or more for the problems to be ironed out…. apparently. according to these people

what happened to demanding better man. what the fuck happened. why y’all complacent now

today i finally managed not fainting straight to bed and decided to work on this personal project, and while looking for references i encountered this freakishly, utterly, ABSO-FCKIN-LUTELY ADORABLE PAGE

and got reminded how much personality and charm Olde DetCo has, and god, i miss it

Dark beginnings my beloved 🖤❤️

just spent the last couple hours going "why am i not having fun anymore? i'm still watching Show I Like. the only thing that changed is the season i'm watching, because i thought i should go back and watch the first season i skipped to get to my favorite parts."

then i switched back to the later seasons that i liked. and can you guess what happened? i started have fun again. because i was forcing myself to watch the earlier season first, as if that was the only way to watch Show I Like. literally put a gun to my own head going "you're supposed to see it in order! you need the context before seeing everything else!!" instead of just enjoying myself.

Re-reading TPOTOT in the most fucked up but efficient way:

Ead chapters via ebook :)

Everything else at 1.5x speed on audio

i think a key component of sports fan accounts is holding grudges on behalf of your favourite team/athlete. it’s part of the natural ecosystem

[fisheito]

I was so scare when i saw this

Rei.... what are you going to do to those slimes where my party is at serious risk of die

[atissi]

as much as i dislike a lot of the backstory re-writes in darkest dungeon 2, i still think it's cute that plague doctor loses stress when she sees her professor cough up blood. you can take the freak actions away from the scientist but you cannot take away the freak behaviour.

Ooo, do you have a favorite type of plant? Honestly I adore any and all plants with a succulent body plan - so cute and blobby!

SUCCULENT GANG!

I have a bunch I’ve managed to grow, it was so cool to see them in person for the first time! So blobby and fun! Really felt like an honour, the same with any specimen I get my hands on!

And for your first question, I couldn’t pick a favourite. They’re all so fascinating and beautiful in their own ways 💚

IS IT ME OR WHEN I VISITED UR BLOG JUST NOW GOJO IS TWERKING MORE FASTER 😭 Best thing I saw at 3AM today lmao

I think it gives that impression because now Geto, with his slow twrking, is also marking his territory in front of my profile

[aellivi]

They're silly
