Macerating Toilets

Macerating toilets are more powerful toilets intended to fast break down waste so they flush more effectively. While they’re great for most homes, third-world countries may not have the plumbing to support them. This is why some organizations have turned to 3D-printed toilets to help people worldwide who don’t currently have access to a toilet in their homes. 

Ceramic Additive Manufacturing Systems

Ceramic additive manufacturing systems are used to 3D-print ceramics, such as structural ceramics, which are wear-resistant and biocompatible. These properties make 3D-printed ceramics ideal for the medical industry and are used to make organs, bones, and implants.

7 Axis CNC Swiss Screw Machining

7-axis Swiss CNC machining is a common process for creating long, slender parts that are very detailed. CNC machining is one of the top services that medical industry professionals are looking to source domestically, along with injection molding and additive manufacturing, according to recent findings in the Xometry Medical Device Manufacturing Report 2023. 

Collagen Peptides

Collagen peptides are tiny pieces of protein gathered from animal collagen. Collagen peptides are often taken orally as a diet supplement but can also be used to grow living tissues and organs outside of human and animal bodies. A 2021 trial used Irish soda bread and collagen to grow human muscle, skin, and bone cells.

Biodigester Enzymes

Biodigester enzymes are used to help break down organic waste into water, biogas, and sludge. Biodigesters are often needed for biodegradable material to successfully and quickly compost. There have been many recent trends in industry towards biodegradable and compostable material, including compostable packaging. 

Biomass

Biomass is any organic matter that can be used as fuel. Federal policies have subsidized and promoted biomass energy development for some time, and the industry has rapidly expanded. Biomass energy production in the United States is expected to grow to 5.54 quadrillion British thermal units in 2050.

Warehouse Safety Inspection Services

You can hire a third party to perform warehouse safety inspection services to ensure your business complies with OSHA guidelines. Officials from OSHA recently began a new effort to reduce hazards at warehouses and other logistics facilities. The administration said the three-year “national emphasis program” will include inspections of warehouses, distribution centers, processing facilities, and select “high-risk” retail establishments.

Floor Troughs

Floor troughs are used as drains in commercial food-service establishments or restaurants. The food service industry is forecasted to reach $997B in sales in 2023, driven partly by higher menu prices. Its workforce is also projected to grow by 500,000 jobs, surpassing pre-pandemic levels.

Rotating Flat Plug Extension Cords

Rotating flat plug extension cords are designed to fit through tight spaces. The global power cords and extension cords market size was estimated to be worth USD 5520 million in 2022 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 4959.4 million by 2030 with a CAGR of -1.5 Percent during the forecast period 2023-2030.

Motor Circuit Analyzers (MCA)

Motor circuit analyzers, or MCAs, assess the health of electric motors. They can be used to examine the insulation, any electrical imbalances, and the condition of the motor, including rotors and coupling/belt issues. They can be used to reduce energy usage expenditures, increase equipment efficiency, and prevent breakdowns, and are a part of condition monitoring, the continuous monitoring of critical equipment parameters.

Liquid Penetrant Inspection Services

Liquid penetrant inspection services are non-destructive material testing methods that use capillary forces to find and make surface cracks or pores visible. The demand for these services is projected to grow, as the non-destructive testing market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.3% from 2023 to 2033. 

Plant Dismantling Services

Plant dismantling services involve recycling scrap materials such as metal and reusing other assets. Plant dismantling services could be used to help a business when reshoring, the process of returning production and manufacturing to the country where the company was first established. In 2022, reshoring in the U.S. surged to a record high, with 364,000 jobs announced.

Cable Management Sleeves

Cable management sleeves wrap and protect wires, cords, and organize cables. Core Industry 4.0 technologies, including predictive analytics, IoT, and advanced robotics, all require cables. The wire and cable market is experiencing the growing momentum of Industry 4.0 tech adoption. It’s anticipated to reach $232 billion by 2025, growing at an annual rate of almost 5%.

Coconut Fatty Acid

Coconut fatty acid is used in bath products, soaps, and cleaning products. The cleaning habits we developed over the past two years amid COVID-19 have lead to a growth in the global contract cleaning industry, which was worth $292.6 billion in 2019, and it’s expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.1% from 2020 to 2027. The global cleaning products market, valued at $17.3 billion in 2020, is projected to grow even faster, with a CAGR of 9.7% from 2021 to 2028.

Automation Training Services

Automation training services help teach employees about communications and control systems and plant maintenance and control. Automation training proposes that software now handles some of the duties formerly carried out manually by a human. Automation could range from on the plant floor to even in a bar. Robot bartenders have appeared in a few restaurants, such as the Tipsy Robot on the Las Vegas Strip. Since 2017, robots have been serving cocktails there, and Cecilia.ai, a robotic bartender introduced in 2021, utilizes artificial intelligence (AI) to communicate with customers in a way similar to how Siri responds on a smartphone.
