Innovation and technology are the theme of this edition of Market Moves Manufacturing, starting with circularity, which may be a solution to persistent resource scarcity. We'll also continue delving into AI’s place in the manufacturing sector: Recent reports show where its greatest strengths may lie, and a major company plans to automate some operations with AI-powered robots.

In the aerospace world, the FAA is adopting a new “audit-plus” system to oversee plane manufacturing. Meanwhile, a fun-sized 3D printer is bringing the latest manufacturing technology to space.

The UltraView Cameras allow users to instantly pinpoint leaks and detect partial discharge from a safe distance, displaying locations on the screen in real-time. Ignored partial discharge and air leaks can lead to many problems such as a dangerous work environment, increased energy costs, reduced efficiency, premature equipment wear, and unplanned downtime. Detect problems before it's too late!

While it unlocks a realm of possibilities, there are still some considerations.
Adoption is growing, and there are some situations where its implementation is particularly impactful.
Balancing automation with human engagement in a smartphone-focused world.
The multi-year agreement with RightHand Robotics will reduce human interventions in the warehouse by 80%.
The agency will shift from an audit-based oversight to an inspection-focused approach.
The washing machine-sized unit will allow astronauts to manufacture tools and structural parts.
For public-facing leaders, it can be tricky when deciding what—if anything—to post.
