SUMMARY:CONNEX Massachusetts Registration & Training Session
DESCRIPTION:The session is created for Massachusetts Manufacturers that are interested in joining the CONNEX Supply Chain Database. If you are new to the platform MassMEP representatives will be live to get you registered\, walk you through the features of the platform\, and answer questions. \nSession times and dates are listed in the MassMEP workshop calendar. Click the link on your preferred date to join the live session\, no registration necessary. Manufacturers will only need to attend one training session. \nThrough the MassMEP partnership\, a lifetime CONNEX Massachusetts subscription is available at no cost for all Massachusetts Manufacturers. To join the CONNEX Marketplace National Database account holders will receive a promotion code that equates to an annual savings of $500/year. This offer is valid through June 13\, 2023. \nClick here to join

SUMMARY:Manufacturing @ MIT: 2022 and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:Hear from top thinkers from industry\, government\, and academia on manufacturing including MIT professors Suzanne Berger\, Duane Boning\, Richard Braatz\, Josephine Carstensen\, Zachary Cordero\, Dave Hardt\, John Hart\, Lionel Kimerling\, David Mindell\, Yet-Ming Chiang\, Elsa Olivetti\, Julie Shah\, and more. \nOver many decades\, MIT faculty and researchers have made tremendous contributions to manufacturing technology in areas like CNC machining\, 3D printing\, and production of pharmaceuticals\, as well as on the policy front\, with path-breaking studies including Made in America and Production in the Innovation Economy. \nBy embracing new technologies and a new mindset\, manufacturing can play a key role in strengthening our economy\, reducing carbon emissions\, and improving economic mobility and workforce diversity. Investments in digital production\, robotics\, photonics\, and other advanced technologies will transform products and factory floors\, improving performance and sustainability and creating new\, well-paying jobs. Many manufacturers operate on paper-thin margins\, and workers turn away from jobs they associate with America’s rust-belt decline. Therefore\, we must chart a path toward a new\, technologically driven\, agile\, and resilient advanced manufacturing future. \nMoreover\, with recent lessons about the fragility of our manufacturing supply chains\, the federal government is more focused on America’s manufacturing future than it has been in decades. Several top universities have established manufacturing centers to be part of the solution. They are pulling in engineers along with political scientists\, economists\, and workforce experts\, and building deep partnerships with industry and the public sector. \nWe are excited to invite you Friday May 6\, to a symposium that brings together the many people across the institute who care deeply about manufacturing. We will ask what the future might be\, and how MIT can make the strongest impact. Please spread the word to your colleagues\, students\, and research staff. \nPlease register no later than Friday\, April 29\, 2022. Lunch and refreshments will be served. \nPlease use this code for 25% off at registration – Code MFG25 \n  \nParking and Accommodation \nMIT on-site parking is not available for individuals who do not already have parking rights to lots and facilities on the MIT campus. \nPublic parking lots\, garages\, and metered street parking are available in relative proximity to the Walker Memorial building. A list of public parking options can be found here. For ease of transportation\, public transportation or ride-sharing is recommended. \nFor any guests seeking accommodation\, a list of area hotels are provided here. For MIT “Preferred Hotels\,” a discounted rate may be available; please inquire with the hotel directly when making your reservation. \n  \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Adaptive Control and Monitoring\, a solution to reduce cycle time and increase tool life during the manufacturing process.
DESCRIPTION:Adaptive Control and Monitoring allows for the adjustment of the feed rate\, in real time\, based on the current cutting conditions. To improve the tool life\, reduce the feed when entering the material for every pass without any changes to the program. All while constantly monitoring production to detect overload and broken tools. \nA software based solution to:\n¥ Reduce machine cycle times\n¥ Improve tool life\n¥ Enable lights out manufacturing \nTarget Audience: Machine Builders\, Retrofitters\, End Users \nPresenter:  Stephen Fruehe\, Pre-Sales Engineer\, Siemens \nRegister Here
