A must-attend event for thermprocess and industrial finishing & coatings executives, ITPS/IFCS will provide a unique platform for industry intelligence and collaboration. This two-day Summit will feature two joint general sessions with a total of ten presentations addressing topics of crucial importance to all manufacturing leadership, including:

 

Factories of the Future: What Does the Future Workforce Look Like?
Dr. Irene Petrick, Market Innovation Director, Industrial Solutions Div./Internet of Things Group, Intel Corporation

Industry 4.0, Industrial Internet of Things, the Fourth Manufacturing Revolution, Artificial Intelligence – these terms have quickly become standard manufacturing terminology, but exactly how do they impact your business and your workforce? Dr. Petrick will address what manufacturers can expect on the factory floor as well as changes to their workforce as these once-ideological concepts become today’s reality.

 

 

Trends in Additive Manufacturing
Todd Grimm, Founder and President, T.A. Grimm & Associates, Inc.

The hottest and likely fastest growing industrial technology over the past several years, Additive Manufacturing (AM) pops up in virtually every conversation about advanced manufacturing. AM expert Todd Grimm will offer insights on trends, metal and non-metal applications, and their impact on manufacturing that will assist thermprocessing and finishing business leaders in devising a strategy to leverage, or counter, AM’s impact.

 

 


 

Why I'm Attending: 
“This event is uniquely valuable in the thermal processing and finishing industries to C-level or equivalent people. I’ve found the 2-3 days to be an excellent opportunity to keep up with the latest “mega-trends” and as a refreshing time for thinking outside the box and making exceptionally valuable industry contacts.”
