Digital Manufacturing Showcase 2017 Call for Papers    June 2017 Digital Manufacturing 2017 Conference September 7-8, 2017 Emerging Technologies Academy September 6, 2017 Florida Hotel & Conference Center Orlando, Florida, USA What is Digital Manufacturing? Digital Manufacturing (for purposes of this program) is a collective term that encompasses numerous technologies utilized to produce products from digital files. Examples of terms which we define as being various forms of digital manufacturing include 3D Printing, Additive Manufacturing, Rapid Prototyping, Rapid Manufacturing, Personal Manufacturing and Layered Manufacturing among others – all of which manufacture end products from a digital file using computer controlled devices in a primarily additive process – rather than subtractive processes typically utilized in traditional manufacturing (milling, machining, etc.). IMI President Al Keene says, “We are truly in the Digital Age and digital manufacturing is experiencing tremendous interest, growth, and rapid expansion into new markets, applications, and production environments. IMI’s Digital Manufacturing 2017 Conference will explore Digital Manufacturing’s potential and challenges as it enters a new era. This transition and continued expansion of digital manufacturing can provide needed stimulation in manufacturing industries and may provide unparalleled business opportunities for manufacturing in our increasingly digital world.” IMI is actively working to complete the final speaker selections by June 19th. Proposed presentation titles and outlines (or suggestions for specific topics and/or speakers) should be submitted as soon as possible via email al@imiconf.com or by phone (+1-207-235-2225). Preliminary program details and on-line registration for all programs are now available on IMI’s web site www.imiconf.com.
