IMTS 2026: tecnologías para hacer posible lo imposible
Eduardo Tovar | Modern Machine Shop México
Reducir el número de sujeciones necesarias para completar una pieza compleja exige concentrar el fresado, el torneado, el barrenado y el rectificado en una misma plataforma. Centros de cinco ejes y equipos multitarea incorporan estructuras rígidas y compensación térmica para mantener la precisión durante ciclos prolongados.

IMTS 2026: automatización distribuida e IA en la manufactura
Eduardo Tovar | Modern Machine Shop México
Automatizar una celda no se limita a la carga y descarga de piezas: exige coordinar la sujeción, la medición y los inventarios para mantener un proceso sin intervención constante. La inteligencia artificial pasa de interpretar datos a recomendar o ejecutar acciones, sin sustituir el criterio del especialista.
Ventaja competitiva en manufactura: se construye, no se compra
| Modern Machine Shop México
El nearshoring exige a los talleres mexicanos algo más que capacidad instalada: la ventaja competitiva en manufactura se decide en ingeniería, talento y método, no solo en la compra de equipo.

Automatización: toma la delantera en la agenda de América Latina
| Modern Machine Shop México
La convergencia entre software, inteligencia artificial y planta física acelera la automatización en América Latina, mientras el nearshoring en México pasa de la atracción de inversión a la ejecución operativa bajo la revisión del TMEC, sin que la formación de talento alcance ese ritmo.
Errores en la medición de circularidad: causas y corrección
George Schuetz | Modern Machine Shop México
Un desajuste entre el punto inicial y el final del perfil de redondez indica una deriva térmica, no un defecto de la pieza. Una sujeción sin desmagnetizar distorsiona igualmente la medición de la circularidad. El entorno, la preparación y el equipo determinan si una desviación es atribuible al componente medido.
