SOUTHWEST Session: Manufacturers from fabricators to assembly shops are all challenged with workforce woes, the need to boost productivity and the endless quest for quality. Knowing automation is the answer is one thing, but actually finding real success with technology investments can feel challenging and risky. How do you know what will truly bring value to the organization? How do you determine the return? And now with the hype of Artificial Intelligence (AI) seemingly on every product, how do manufacturing leaders determine the right places to invest limited time and capital budgets? In this session, we will delve into the ever-evolving landscape of automation & AI in the factory and take a look at technologies that are having a real impact today across the shop floor. Then we will stare into the crystal ball to look forward at technologies that are on the near horizon that manufacturing leaders should be keeping an eye on. Covering important topics like human-robot collaboration, automated equipment tending, data-driven insights, cobot welding, predictive maintenance, robot guided vision, bin picking, collaborative automation, quality inspections, and much more, attendees should leave this session ready to make value-creating technology investments in their business. Join us as we explore how AI is reshaping the factory floor — one algorithm at a time.

SOUTHWEST Session: Everyone talks about AI — few talk about the “boring” foundation that makes it work. In manufacturing, most AI dreams collapse under the weight of messy spreadsheets, disconnected systems, and inconsistent data. This session cuts through the hype to reveal why data discipline—not algorithms—is the real competitive edge. We’ll explore how small and mid-sized manufacturers can turn their existing data into a living foundation for AI, move beyond endless pilots, and start making decisions that learn and adapt on their own. If you’ve ever wondered why your AI projects stall — or how even to get started with them — this talk is for you.

SOUTHWEST Session: Transitioning from prototyping to serial production is the defining challenge in additive manufacturing today. This presentation by Farsoon Technologies Americas will demonstrate a clear pathway to achieving high-volume, cost-effective manufacturing using truly open and integrated 3D printing solutions. We will explore real-world success stories across key industries, including the production of civil aerospace components, high-performance shoe molds, Intricate 3C products, electronic motorcycle parts, athletic and sporting goods, and medical implants. These case studies will reveal how our open-system approach provides the flexibility and material choice necessary for serial production. The session will then delve into the specific technology innovations that make this possible. We will showcase how Beam Shaping optimizes material and processing capabilities, while the Support Reduction System (SRS) slashes post-processing time and material waste. Attendees will learn how fine laser spot printing achieves ultra-fine 0.05mm details for intricate parts, and how large-layer thickness printing drastically improves efficiency for less critical dimensions. We will also highlight specialized solutions like Auto-Grafting Technology for superior mold production. Join us to discover how the latest advancements 3D printing technology are delivering great ROI by reducing total manufacturing costs and unlocking the full potential of volume AM production.
