SUMMARY:Texprocess Americas Virtual Symposium: The Factory Of The Future
DESCRIPTION:The textile industry is experiencing a shift from mass production to custom service and rapid distribution. Opportunities to apply robotics\, AI\, visual systems\, advanced path planning\, and other advanced technologies are being developed by a new generation of entrepreneurs\, and companies motivated to keep up with this changing environment are presented with a number of new challenges and questions to consider. Join us on October 7th\, to hear our panel of experts (representing perspectives from small start-ups to government suppliers to market leaders) as they discuss: \n\nWhat disruptive technologies are coming and what is the current robotic sewing capability?\nWhat infrastructure is required to address the changing workforce?\nWho is building/integrating robotic technology and where are funds being sourced?\nWhat are some metrics observed that compares robotics vs human manufacturing?\nWhat are the challenges and progress made as it relates to end-of-arm tooling?\nAre there any unique challenges in manufacturing DoD apparel and non-apparel products?\n\nModerated by: \nArnie Kravitz\, Chief Technology Officer\, Advanced Robotics for Manufacturing (ARM) \nSpeakers: \nAndrea Madho\, DEO & Cofounder\, Lab141\nJohn Martynec\, Executive Vice President of Manufacturing and Operations\, Hickey Freeman\nEric Spackey\, CEO\, Bluewater Defense\nGiovanni Tracanella\, Global Industrial Director\, U.S. Operations Vice President\, Vibram \n
