Hamburg-waferfab

A long-running dispute between Dutch semiconductor company Nexperia and its China-based subsidiary has intensified, with the Chinese entity announcing it has begun producing its own chips while tensions over operations and governance continue to escalate.

robotic-cell

ABB has announced a collaboration with Nvidia to integrate Nvidia Omniverse libraries into ABB’s RobotStudio software platform, aiming to enable large-scale deployment of AI-driven industrial robotics.

AiRob-Piotr-Owczarek_2_1

High-mix, low-volume production has long been one of the most complex operational environments in the EMS industry. Short production runs, high product variability, frequent changeovers and constant time pressure mean that factories operate in a state of near-constant adaptation. At the same time, customer expectations for quality and flexibility continue to rise, while the availability of skilled labour remains limited. In such conditions, manufacturing ceases to be a collection of independent processes — it becomes a system in which every change carries wider operational consequences.

SASMOS_MoU

This partnership focuses on co-development and co-indigenisation in key technology domains, including fibre optics and photonics; tank electronics; and naval systems and airborne platforms.
