Allowing industries to evaluate the digestibility, functionality, and bioavailability of nutrients in food and perform release tests of bioactive substances in the digestion process.

Caracol's printing heads - High Accuracy, High Versatility, High Flow - are conceived to be integrated within the Large Format Additive Manufacturing system Heron AM, to provide the best fit to each customer's production need.

Elevate your industrial maintenance skills with DAC Worldwide's Basic Coupling/Shaft Alignment Trainer (208D-000)!
Modeled after the dimensions of a common ANSI centrifugal pump, the Basic Coupling/Shaft Alignment Trainer enables learners to master various alignment techniques and tools crucial in today’s industrial maintenance. DAC Worldwide’s Basic Coupling/Shaft Alignment Trainer offers hands-on experience for the tasks users will encounter on the job.

Amatrol's hands-on training system features a portable setup for in-depth learning of Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) operations and troubleshooting, specifically using the Allen-Bradley L16ER CompactLogix 5370 PLC, PanelView 800 HMI terminal, and networks. It covers programming, motor control, pneumatics, and more, with components such as an Allen-Bradley L16ER 5370 Processor & HMI Screen, pneumatic cylinders, control valves, potentiometer, variable speed drive, external I/O interface, temperature control, and an emergency stop button.

Additionally, the system can integrate with Industry 4.0 as a PLC training device and Tabletop Smart Factory cell controller, connecting physical systems and human assets for a fully-connected manufacturing experience. The FaultPro Technology allows users to implant 30+ faults for troubleshooting, enhancing practical skills in real-world scenarios. The interactive multimedia curriculum by Amatrol incorporates various learning methods and covers topics like PLC operation, Ethernet communication, motor control, timer instructions, event sequencing, counter instructions, HMI operation, and component/systems troubleshooting.

In this video, Stratasys' applications engineer demonstrates the process of loading and unloading material spools.

The design team at Labomed, one of the top 10 global medical device brands, uses two Stratasys FDM™ (Fused Deposition Modeling) F170 3D printers to produce prototypes for ophthalmology, gynecology, ENT, and more.

Watch the video to see how having 3D printers in-house helps the design team produce highly aesthetic, accurate products in less time.
