Finally, there’s the half-day live event on October 7, in Nashville, TN. Here we’ll provide case-study presentations and breakout sessions with press builders.

On the agenda:

• Komatsu will provide a live feed to a customer facility to illustrate how it uses its servo presses, including an analysis of press setup and programming.

• Seyi will explain the servo-vibration process for high-tolerance drawing.

On the heels of the Servo Press Technology Experience comes The Manufacturing ERP Experience, also in Nashville on October 8-9. The 1.5-day event allows attendees to witness software demonstrations from leading suppliers, and benefit from case-study presentations describing successful software-implementation projects. Also on tap are three keynote presentations from respected, knowledgeable experts on ERP-software implementation strategies, vendor selection, training and other critical topics.

Make this fall a learning experience—get on board and come see us in Nashville to boost your knowledge of servo-press and ERP-software technology. Learn more at www.metalformingmagazine.com/servo and www.metalformingmagazine.com/erp.
