제조업 혁신 3.0 – 산업 자산을 최대로 활용하는 것부터

2015년 2월 6일

산업 자산은 기업이 부가가치를 만들어 내기 위해 투입되는 기계, 장비 또는 인프라스트럭쳐를 지칭한다. 즉, 효율성과 운영비용의 문제를 해결하기 위해서는 가장 핵심인 산업 자산에서 시작해야 한다는 말이다.

산업인터넷에서 요구되는 사이버 보안은 무엇일까?

2014년 12월 10일

기계와 인간, 기계와 기계들이 서로 연결되어 함께 일하는 산업인터넷 기술. 이 첨단기술이 시대의 주류로 자리잡으며 기술 분야와 우리 삶의 많은 것들이 바뀌고 있다. 특히 데이터와 기술을 안전하게 지키는 사이버 보안은 산업인터넷의 등장 이후 완전히 다른 개념으로 전환하였다.

Slice into an additively-made part from @geadditive and you’ll see geometries once thought impossible with traditional manufacturing methods. Why the hype? Engineers can now find greater strength and efficiency through design. #engineering #additive #3Dprinting #manufacturing
Colder weather is on the way. If you’re in Winnipeg, Canada, that means ice testing is too. There, @geaviation test engines are pummeled with sub-zero winds and ice. The harsh conditions on the ground make sure engines are ready to face the elements in the air. #AVgeek #jetengine #engineering
Wind, meet water. In Germany’s Swabian-Franconian Forest, you’ll find the world’s tallest (584 ft) and first-ever wind turbines integrated with pumped storage hydroelectric power. So how does it work? At the base of each wind turbine sits a reservoir. Water flowing downhill from the reservoirs will power the hydro plant when electricity is needed. When there’s an energy surplus, the hydro power will push the water back up the hill to the reservoirs, where it will act as a giant battery for the wind turbines. So no matter if the wind is blowing or not, electricity will always be flowing
Spooky season is here, but don't let your annual mammogram scare you. Nearly 30% of women in the U.S. admit to skipping breast screenings out of fear. That's why @gehealthcare engineers decided to better the experience with a mammography system designed by women, for women. Melding comforting design with cutting edge technology, the Senographe Pristina aims to humanize the process for patients, technicians, and radiologists. #BCAM #Mammography #breastcancerawareness
This Ultra Performance Heat Exchanger is a perfect example of how small parts can make a HUGE difference. Still in development, the additively manufactured compact heat exchanger is printed with a high-temperature capable, crack-resistant nickel superalloy that will be able to withstand temps that exceed 1,650°F at pressures >3,600 psi. Good thing, too, because it’s headed straight for the inside of a gas turbine, where it’s projected to deliver a 4% improvement in thermal efficiency for supercritical C02 power cycles while improving power output and reducing emissions. Cleaner, more efficient power generation here we come.
