Building the heavy equipment machines of the future

How to design and build tomorrow’s heavy equipment with today’s software

In the previous blog, What will it take to build the heavy equipment machines of the future?, we discussed the challenges and opportunities facing heavy equipment manufacturers as they design the machines of the future.

In this blog, we’ll focus more specifically on the solutions that heavy equipment manufacturers can use — such as state-of-the-art design, engineering and simulation tools — to build the next generation products that will fuel increased efficiency, sustainability and reliability.

What is essential in the next generation design

New design paradigms require upfront validation and visualization. The earlier in the design phase that a team can create and simulate meaningful multi-discipline models, even if it means embracing 1D systems engineering at first, the likelier they are to avoid costly updates later in the process.

A single platform for electromechanical design that can manage the increasingly complex machines. A critical question is whether the mechanical and electrical designs collaborate in a single environment and what issues they may cause.

Traceability. It is essential to trace the requirements for new machine variants from the customer or OEM specifications all the way through to the parts design. Therefore, the digital tools and platform in use must provide advanced multiphysics simulation and optimization while still ensuring the design meets the needs for durability.

A single environment where design content is managed in real-time. Compressed schedules drive faster decision-making, but ensuring those decisions are the correct ones means having content in a single system for full traceability, impact assessment and access to the latest variants regardless of where they were updated.

Tools to drive advancements in manufacturing and design. New materials and manufacturing methods, especially when building lightweight machines, will be difficult, if not impossible, without the right tools to create and design.

There are significant challenges that impact heavy equipment design.

Global competition is one in particular because there is pressure to reduce time-to-market. But it’s hard to maintain quality and performance standards when in a hurry. Another challenge is customization, which only increases as more and more local markets require different needs. Manufacturers often struggle to be agile amid new product form factors and increased customer demands.

If manufacturers are using current design solutions they are likely disconnected, restrictive and labor-intensive. On top of that, more consolidation and siloed teams is leading to communication issues which slow down the process.

Digitalization will be how heavy equipment manufacturers remain competitive, minimize costs and ensure local regulations are met. There are a variety of software solutions that can help manufacturers meet these challenges and bring forth the next generation of design.

Basic Safety Tips for Machine Tool operators

The importance of safety is always underestimated in the workplace. Tragic accidents are happening at many workplaces on regular basis, so the need for adopting strict safety measures is critical.  At US Shop Tools, we take extreme care and precautions to maintain the safety of our employees.

In this article, we will discuss the basic safety tips for machine tool operators.  If you work in a place with machine tools, metalworking supplies, and metalworking supplies then you are aware these tools are large & heavy that can cause severe damage so proper precaution should be taken.

Here are some basic safety tips- Thorough Training

Every machine tool is unique and specific training is required to gain an understanding of its features. The latest user-friendly machine technologies also require a specific skill set to understand the specifications & successfully install & operate the equipment.

Don’t remove the machine guards or operate the machine with doors open

There are high chances of accidents when an operator reaches into a machine to remove a jam of chips or make an effort to remove or reposition the cutting tool or workpiece. The tools designed at US Shop Tools such as Lathe or Mill Work holding, Tool Holding, Cutting tools, Measuring Tools, Abrasives, Materials and Shop Supplies are designed & manufactured with all security measures and protective guards. Exclusive metal working tools

Regular maintenance of machinery equipment

A regular maintenance schedule is required to keep machine tools operating at high performance in aspects of both productivity and safety. We follow a regular maintenance schedule for machinery & equipment as well.

It should be compulsory to wear PPE

The employees should wear personal protective equipment all the time. This includes helmets, goggles, footwear, clothing, and other necessary equipment.

Avoid using defective tools

Never use blunt, cracked, chipped, or broken tools while working.

Remove all the guards only when the machine is locked out.

Never remove the guards until and unless the machine doesn’t stop working completely. Because it might happen that the parts might be moving even after the machine stops working.

Never wear loose clothing

Avoid wearing loose clothing, jewelry, or long hair while working with machines. These can increase the risk of getting caught in the machinery.

It is extremely important to follow safety measures to protect the lives of machine tool operators. At US Shop Tools, our employees are our first priority. We ensure all the safety & precautionary measures are followed compulsorily.
