June 2026 Manufacturing & Production Engineering: insights on automation, sustainable energy, robotics, smart manufacturing and digital transformation.
This edition examines how rising energy costs and digitalisation are reshaping factories — from modular, open automation platforms and simplified motion control to interoperable servo systems and multi‑protocol drives that cut engineering time and boost supply‑chain resilience. Features include “Unlocking Easier Automation” (right‑sizing systems to remove unnecessary complexity), case studies on commercial space‑saving solar arrays (Numatic) and fully funded solar schemes for SMEs, plus product launches, acquisitions, tooling and machining advances that help manufacturers improve efficiency, reduce carbon and secure energy resilience.
