Kennametal's Technology Learning Opportunities Offered at imX Event

Kennametal Inc. will be among a select group of manufacturing technology providers presenting cutting-edge information and applications to an invitation-only audience. This inaugural Interactive Manufacturing Experience (imX) event on September 12-14 at the Las Vegas Convention Center is expected to have approximately 9,000 participants.

imX is billed as a "business environment," and not a traditional trade show. For example, the exhibit floor concept is grouped by solution set, not booth size, and the focus is on education and knowledge transfer for an audience of manufacturing industry decision makers.

Kennametal will present two "learning labs" during the event: "Delivering Productivity from Art to Part" and "From Megatrends to Solutions: Turning Change into Opportunity."  Each presentation features Kennametal executives and engineering experts who will be available to attendees for further discussion.

• "Delivering Productivity" examines the entire production chain, so manufacturers can leverage opportunities to combine traditional metalcutting techniques and the latest technology with non-metalcutting approaches to significantly reduce downtime and increase profitability.
• "From Megatrends to Solutions" emphasizes the integration of evolving process knowledge with rapidly changing economic and geopolitical trends to keep leading industrial companies ahead of the curve.
