Episode 60 – Patrick McFadden, co-founder and CEO, Iris Dynamics
About this episode
Labeling a technology as “smart” — like a smart phone, smart watch, or smart toaster — indicates that it can perceive things about its environment, communicate them, and possibly even adapt performance accordingly. Motion control technology has become more accurate and precise over the years. Now it too is becoming smart. Iris Dynamics co-founder and CEO Patrick McFadden joins the latest episode of the Manufacturing Matters podcast to discuss how the humble linear electric motor is gaining intelligence and what that means for industrial automation, aerospace, test and measurement, and other vertical sectors.
