Join the fourth edition of the conference, April 28-30, 2015, to learn what's enabling digital manufacturing!

From smart phones and smart cars to the smart factory, we are in the middle of a digital transformation. The world is being digitized. This digital version, mirror image, of the physical world is empowering manufacturers to more effectively plan, monitor, and optimize their manufacturing thereby producing significant improvements in operational efficiency.

In support of this digital transformation, manufacturers need to develop comprehensive digital product strategies. Cloud-based services are now available that allow manufacturers to publish their digital product data and knowledge side-by-side with their physical products - machine tools, cutting tools, workholding, etc. Through the cloud, consumers then have direct access to up-to-date product data allowing them to more easily identify and select an optimal solution from the universe of possibilities. Subsequently, feeding that data into their shop's software and equipment then empowers customers to efficiently plan, program, monitor and optimize their operations.
