Mission


 
 


The Manufacturing Tech Council is a membership-based community for manufacturing technology leaders who want to understand how advanced technologies are transforming the industry — and how to use them to succeed.
Our mission is to prepare our members for a future that holds both opportunities and challenges. We provide a virtual forum to meet the people, products, and ideas that are driving manufacturing forward, and a peer-to-peer network to inspire the new ways of thinking and solving problems that are essential not just for success, but also for survival.
From additive and advanced robotics to augmented reality and generative design, there are faster, more efficient and more customer-driven approaches to the manufacturing process. Each day technology changes the way things are made, sold, bought and serviced. Join your peers and industry leaders who are on the forefront of this revolution. We invite you to engage in this endeavor of discovery and growth.

  • November 2019 Cognitive Automation
    Cognitive automation takes robotic process automation (RPA) to the next level - from acting like a human to thinking like a human. In fact, consultancy KPMG says it will "lead to a revolution in scale, adoption, and impact of artificial intelligence” and cautions that companies “need to move fast to reap the powerful benefits promised and to ensure that they can compete in the future.” Cognitive automation is sometimes called “white collar automation” for its role in streamlining a number of business processes, but it also has a variety of game-changing applications in the manufacturing realm. Where will cognitive automation impact your factory floor? We’ll examine the state of the art in CA and how early adopters are capitalizing on it.
