With a rapidly evolving market, Aussie manufacturers are faced with the urgent need to adopt the latest technologies to optimise their operations and stay competitive. One critical element in this digital transformation journey is the use of advanced Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems.

The Australian tech industry has seen massive changes over the last two years as businesses, both big and small, were pushed to expand and innovate in the wake of a global pandemic. 

The coronavirus pandemic forced B2B buyers and sellers to curtail physical efforts. But it also opened a whole new world of business opportunities for those willing to make the radical, digital leap.

One of the "hottest" metals currently garnering interest in additive manufacturing is copper - largely because of its greater thermal conductivity, which is desired in industries like electronics and rocketry where heat exchange is essential.

The economic value of the global animal health industry might be largely unknown to many, overshadowed by more popular markets like mining and agriculture, however, two established Victorian manufacturers have set their sights on capitalising on their long-standing partnership to grab a slice of the growing market. 

The manufacturing sector has long been a male-dominated industry, but recent efforts to increase gender diversity are paving the way for a more inclusive future. 

Australian consumers value safety and reliability. When they buy a product, whether it’s food, appliances, vehicles, or hardware, they expect it to perform as promised and meet acceptable quality standards. 

Challenges that plagued the manufacturing industry in 2022 are not showing any signs of slowing down, leaving business leaders with the monumental task of dealing with these issues—or at least their remnants— all while pushing innovation, meeting customer demand, and driving operational growth. 

The race is on to make space components more dependable, affordable, scalable, and producible using agile manufacturing techniques as the aerospace industry moves quickly towards additive manufacturing (AM) as a method to convert innovative, physics-based designs into higher-performing parts.

For decades, industry players and government institutions in Australia and around the world have drawn up various plans to tackle gender inequity within the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics industry.
