Analyzing the pros and cons of additive manufacturing in mass production, the current state of industry applications, and channels for bulk production services. “Can 3D printing technology be used to manufacture thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of parts?” More and more manufacturers are beginning to ask this critical question. They are … Read more
Source: Science at Ten (ID: Science_10)Children love robots, and so do adults. We see them too often in movies, but few know how far robotics has actually developed today. Boston’s robotic dog is certainly captivating, and robots that can spin, jump, and perform flips like humans are enough to amaze anyone. However, just as there … Read more
Many engineers have encountered situations where chip programming works perfectly during the R&D testing phase, but feedback indicates programming failures during mass production. Is this an issue with the chip itself? Or is it a problem with the programmer? Or are there other possibilities? Many engineers face this issue: programming chips works fine during R&D … Read more
According to a report by Taiwan’s “China Times News” on January 8, the technology of connecting several chips with different functions using advanced packaging technology to achieve the functionality of advanced process chips, known as small chips (or die), is seen as a shortcut for China to break through the US chip technology embargo. Jiangsu … Read more
