IMTS 2018 will be the 32nd edition of the premier manufacturing technology show in North America. IMTS 2016 hosted the highest number of exhibiting companies ever (2,407) and was the third largest in number of registrations (115,612) and in net square feet of exhibit space (1,370,256) at the McCormick Place complex. IMTS is held every even-numbered year in Chicago and attracts buyers and sellers from 117 countries.
Pneumatics and hydraulics continue to be a key component in the manufacturing process. Industry 4.0 and the increasingly smart factory are pushing the bounds of efficiency, speed, and communication. Hear from industry experts on how to adapt, optimize your fluid power components, and maximize energy conservation.
The TRAM aerospace conference aims to educate manufacturing professionals on innovations in the aerospace sector that can make their process more efficient and more profitable. Bringing together industry, academia and research centers, TRAM offers attendees unique insights into advanced manufacturing technologies.
Experience state-of-the-art uses of additive technologies for making functional components and end use production parts. The Additive Manufacturing Conference covers processes, applications and materials, and give you practical knowledge on how to implement them in your facility.
Don’t be left behind! This inaugural conference presented by Laser Institute of America will teach you how to incorporate lasers into your manufacturing processes to stay competitive in the current high-tech market. We will cover industrial applications of lasers, such as: Additive Manufacturing, Cutting, Welding, Marking and more. Most importantly, we will show you how to apply lasers to increase your profit & efficiency. The Laser Institute of America (LIA) is the international society for laser applications and safety. Our mission is to foster lasers, laser applications, and laser safety worldwide.
The International Manufacturing Technology Show is one of the largest industrial trade shows in the world, featuring more than 2,000 exhibiting companies and 114,147 registrants. The event is held every two years in September at McCormick Place, Chicago.
The objective for the IMTS 2016 conference program is continuous improvement. Focusing on five topic tracks featuring a variety of industry specific sessions, presentations will provide solutions to current manufacturing problems such as improving productivity; improving part quality; and developing a stable, competent workforce to lower the cost of manufacturing in the United States and create new levels of market demand.
