How do you choose which manual task to automate first?
Automating dull, dirty, and dangerous manual tasks is a great way to free up your human labor for higher value tasks elsewhere in your facility. Choosing the right first project can set you up for success in automating future projects. Check out the video below to learn how to best select the first place to deploy a collaborative robot.
What's New at Cross
What is the thermal coefficient of expansion and why does it matter?
If you use high precision dimensional gages, having them calibrated in a temperature controlled lab is critical. Check out this video in which Dan Blount from our quality team explains what the thermal coefficient of expansion is and why it is so important to consider when calibrating precision instruments.
3D Scanning for Quality Improvement with Kreon
This case study from Kreon highlights how the company Vi-Technik uses an Ace measuring arm with a Skyline Open 3D scanner to provide a customized inspection solution for rigid plastic parts.
“Injection is a complex process, and the Ace measuring arm ensures that the machine configuration is perfect and the parts series is ready to be manufactured under optimum conditions.” Take a look at the full case study and contact a precision measurement specialist from Cross Company to see how a Kreon solution can improve efficiency in your operation. Cross Company is an authorized Kreon distributor in the U.S.

Improve Efficiency
Choosing to adopt electric power take offs (ePTOs) as an alternative to the traditional engine PTO in an internal combustion engine can improve the energy efficiency of your equipment. From vehicle exhaust and emissions reduction to lessening the strain on the hydraulic system, there are many reasons manufacturers may choose to move to a hybrid vehicle model.
Whatever your reason, Cross Mobile Systems Integration Group can help. We take the time to learn your vehicle, manufacturing process, environmental requirements, and the needs of your future vehicle operators. When we understand how everything fits together, we’re able to create an ePTO system that is designed and optimized for your specific needs.
