Aidan Lamptey knows the kind of things he wants to build someday. “Like Iron Man-type, stuff,” he said with a laugh. More specifically, the Grand Rapids Community College student is interested in mechanical engineering, robotics and creating things that move — maybe a...
TROY, Mich., November 3, 2026 — Automation Alley is partnering with Station52 to give its members discounted access to practical artificial intelligence (AI) training. The first two courses are now listed on Automation Alley’s event calendar, with additional sessions...
In today’s competitive manufacturing environment, ensuring product quality while reducing scrap, rework, and production delays is essential. Tolerance analysis helps engineers predict how variations in individual components can affect the quality and functionality of...
Grand Rapids Community College student Aidan Lamptey is exploring how 3D-printed calculus models could help students who are blind or have low vision understand three-dimensional graphs while building his engineering skills.
New training series, delivered with Educate 360, helps business professionals build practical AI skills
Avoiding three common tolerance analysis mistakes—oversimplifying assemblies, choosing ineffective positioning strategies, and treating flexible parts as rigid—can help manufacturers improve dimensional accuracy, reduce rework, and prevent costly quality issues through advanced 3D simulation.
