…of the world's leading chemical and pharmaceutical companies, including BASF, Bayer, Boehringer Ingelheim, Merck, and Wacker, launched the challenge. Its intent was to promote the development of new ideas and practical applications. Six teams with five different autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) competed to solve recurring tasks, such as safety tours in manufacturing plants. The tasks were to navigate autonomously through a chemical facility, handle typical floor types in that environment, and overcome obstacles. The competing robots also had to find and monitor a gauge and document its reading, transport a sample while collecting data, and more. The last task was…

…transforming the supply chain, contended Volker Hammes, managing director BASF New Business GmbH and another participant on the panel. As manufacturers infuse AM into their production processes, materials should fit the purpose and be evaluated not just in the context of production, but throughout the lifecycle for a circular economy, he said. While the global pandemic is certainly serving as an accelerator for getting companies to evaluate AM and its potential impact on the supply chain, there is still plenty of work to be done to educate C-level executives on the value while burnishing the skills and expertise of employees.…

…go there.” Last year, Materialise announced a partnership with BASF to collaborate on materials. The fact that companies like GE, Siemens, BASF and HP were represented at AMUG is sign that the larger manufacturing world is taking additive manufacturing seriously. Simulation software providers are also taking the technology seriously and working on the considerable challenges involved in predicting what will happen when a particular design using a particular material is 3D printed in a particular machine. “Part of what we've found from our customers is that it's not enough to have a best piece of simulation,” says Brent Stucker, director…

…integrated with Inventor, AutoCAD, Navisworks and other Autodesk titles. BASF found an efficient way to inspect its facilities using AR/VR. “They recently came to us and asked for a way to combine our technology with HoloLens, so that they can use the digital model of the factory and plant in situ onsite, so the maintenance workers can do inspections in HoloLens, compare it to the design model to identify problems and suggest repairs,” says Jonnalagadda. On the use of AR/VR, Fraser cautions, “Most people don’t want to wear goggles all day, so the key is to identify the right use…
