International Metalworking News for Asia - August issue now online!

The regularly-scheduled August issue of International Metalworking News for Asia magazine is packed full of valuable technical guidance for end users in the metalworking industry.

Among the highlights is a follow up interview with Hoffmann Asia's managing director half a year after he assumed the position and announcing his ambitious plan. 

Also check out the exclusive interview of Schaeffler (Singapore)'s vice president for industrial & aerospace regarding "Mobility for Tomorrow" strategic concept, with quotes from the company's director for engineering in South East Asia about manufacturing expertise and systems know-how.

In between are a pair of features focused on automated manufacturing. The future of manufacturing is being driven by the needs of increasingly demanding customers. This often involves the notion of a re-imagined approach towards innovation and the adoption of the Internet of Things with connected systems. Automated manufacturing, machine-to machine communication, and intelligent process chains have now become a fundamental part in stirring industrial changes in South East Asia's factories.

Finally, there’s a technical article on panel bending. By introducing the TruBend Center Series 5000, Trumpf is making its debut in the market for panel bending technology. The panel benders work economically even when producing short runs. They can be run in more quickly than fully automatic machines.

Of course, the issue includes columns from such as show previews and review, industry news and product highlight.
