Junk car buyers and why you should consider them

by

One of the worst things anyone can experience at a random moment is a lack of cash. This can be further compounded if you have a piece of damaged heavy machinery lying around and taking up real estate. This piece of heavy machinery is almost always a car and it can be a problem that no one wants to deal with.

This is where the junk car buyer Junkcarsus or a salvage yard comes in to help you. The Junkcarsus businesses specialize in the buying of old or damaged cars which can then be salvaged for parts or resold as a whole.

Such dealing opportunities are essentially a way out for people trying to be relieved of the burden of having a beat-up car taking up space. At the same time, they will give you a quick payday for something that you don’t even want. [Read more…] about Junk car buyers and why you should consider them

6 Trends in Process Automation Changing How Cars are Made

Automated systems not only reduce the risk of accidents but also help prevent occupational accidents, resulting in a safer workplace for all. By making your workplace safer, you also improve quality and productivity. [Read more…] about How Important is Technology in Automation?

Will Car Manufacturing Ever Be Fully Automated?

by

The other day, I got an email asking me to participate in a survey regarding robots in hotels. Basically, the people behind the study wanted to gauge how comfortable respondents were about letting robots and AI systems take care of different aspects of their stay.

Would they be happy to check in without ever speaking to a human? What about having a robot clean their rooms?

The reason this survey stuck with me is that it posited the possibility that hotels would be staffed by robots in the near future. I wondered if it would be people coming to stay in hotels who would delay this from happening due to technophobia. This is in spite of the fact that mechanisation itself is not fully automated in many industries. [Read more…] about Will Car Manufacturing Ever Be Fully Automated?

Interview: Energy Systems Network CEO Paul Mitchell talks about the future of cars and Indy Autonomous Challenge

by

It’s been a while since we wrote up an interview, mainly because they take a long time to transcribe and edit into a readable article. And we’re not yet a large enough website to devote time to doing that because there are many other stories that would have to wait while we’re busy doing that.

However, the subject of electric vehicles and EV charging networks are important technologies that literally millions of people have been reading about on this website, and we think they will find this interview interesting.

The interview is with Paul Mitchell, president and CEO of Energy Systems Network, a US-based nonprofit which could be described as a kind of public-private partnership with the aim of discovering and commercialising technologies that provide a platform for the continued healthy growth of the entire clean-energy future of moving machines – cars and other road-going vehicles in particular, but possibly even marine vessels and other types of craft such as drones and maybe even planes.
