Jan. 20, 2014
Learn about design collaboration tools that enable machine builders, customers and suppliers to work together more smoothly.
The January issue explores the evolving world of design collaboration tools that enable machine builders, customers and suppliers to work together more smoothly and how the newest touch-sensing capabilities make robots more effective in complex operations. Plus Jeremy Pollard reminds readers that they'll miss the "gray-hairs" when they're gone, Jim Montague says he's not sorry for staring, and readers weigh in on which is better — pneumatics or direct-drive linear applications.
