IMTS 2022 Conference: Digitalization of the Manufacturing Floor – Are SMES Ready for the Next Wave?

About the presentation

Digitalization of the manufacturing floor promises significant productivity and automation gains to large manufacturers, helping them gain a competitive edge. Communication between systems and machines is crucial to collecting data necessary to optimize production processes. Yet, how can small-to-medium sized companies (SMEs) compete on a similar level? What influence will smart manufacturing and data have on the role of part production and CNC programming? Stas Mylek explores technologies that SMEs can apply to help their digital transformation and provide insight into future technologies. Learning points include:

• What existing technologies make sense for SMEs to adopt and how they can help optimize shop floor operations
• Get a glimpse of digital technologies on the horizon and how they will affect SMEs in the short- and long-term.
• Advice on how to prepare for the next wave of automation
