About Cabling Installation & Maintenance:

Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals.

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on:

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

Stratasys Launches North American Tooling Center of Excellence with Automation Intelligence, LLC to Deliver Real-World Additive Manufacturing Value

New Center of Excellence to serve as a catalyst for global expansion of advanced additive tooling solutions for automotive and industrial manufacturers

Stratasys Ltd. (NASDAQ: SSYS) today announced the launch of the North American Stratasys Tooling Center (NASTC), a new collaboration with Automation Intelligence, LLC (AI), at AI’s manufacturing site in Flint, Michigan. This dedicated tooling hub is designed to assist manufacturers validate and scale practical applications for additive manufacturing in production environments.

The NASTC operates both the Stratasys F3300® and F900® 3D printers, providing hands-on access to engineering resources, and create applications focused on critical tooling solutions such as jigs, fixtures, end-of-arm tooling, and North American Automotive Metric Standards (NAAMS) blocks. Automotive and industrial customers can now explore how additive can streamline operations, reduce cost, and respond faster to manufacturing challenges.

“This Center of Excellence will have a significant impact for manufacturers showing how additive fits into their production environment,” said Fadi Abro, Director of Global Automotive & Mobility at Stratasys. “With the launch of the NASTC, we are addressing real-world challenges at this new center. This incubator for advanced manufacturing is designed to enable teams to iterate, validate and scale tooling applications - rapidly. It sets the stage for designing solutions to meet the growing demand for localized, on-demand production solutions worldwide.”

Tooling often determines how quickly and cost-effectively products get to market. The NASTC will give manufacturers validated proof that additive polymer tooling is both viable and an ideal choice for production. With manufacturers and suppliers under constant pressure to become more efficient, the NASTC is structured to deliver speed, flexibility, and confidence, combining additive manufacturing technologies with traditional capabilities. Key capabilities include:

  • Demonstrations of how AM works within a manufacturing ecosystem using the Stratasys F3300 and F900 printers
  • Additive tooling applications, including jigs, fixtures, end-of-arm tooling, and NAAMS components
  • Evaluate use cases with Automation Intelligence
  • Support for customer tours, validation work, and application-focused events
  • A curated display of sample parts to spark new ideas and projects

“Tooling is the heartbeat of manufacturing,” said Jeff McGarry, Managing Partner at Automation Intelligence. “The NASTC offers an environment where manufacturers can see for themselves how additive tools can address today’s challenges with faster turnaround times, digital flexibility, and lower costs. We believe this partnership will demonstrate the positive impact additive can have across production.”

Automation Intelligence helps manufacturers accelerate their adoption of advanced technologies. Currently working with several large manufacturers, AI helps bring focus on practical implementation, and production experience to customers navigating digital transformation. Additionally, the NASTC will also serve as a blueprint for similar tooling hubs worldwide.
