| Info-Packed Lube and IoT Conferences Set |
February 12-13, Lubrication Technology for Metalformers, Hyatt Regency, Schaumburg (Chicago), IL. This conference, powered by MetalForming
magazine with support from the Society of Tribologists and Lubrication
Engineers, will update stampers and die shops on new lubricants for
stamping and tool and die machining, and help them evaluate new
formulations and select the right lubricant for the job. Attendees also
will come away with an understanding of the various techniques available
for applying lubricant, to ensure optimum application while minimizing
waste.
June 24-25, IoT for Metalformers and Fabricators: Software, Sensors and Controls, Marriott Downtown at Key Center, Cleveland, OH. This one-of-a-kind event, powered by MetalForming
magazine, promises to educate floor supervisors, manufacturing
engineers and managers, IT directors, and others working in small to
midsized metalforming and fabricating plants on the coming wave of
digital manufacturing and plant-floor connectivity. Attendees will learn
from expert speakers on ERP/MRP software, sensors and machine controls,
while benefitting from myriad case studies describing how IoT improves
OEE while driving quality and productivity improvements. |
