Jon Riley's Keynote
Here' a preview of what Jon Riley, a dynamic, highly knowledgable speaker, will have to say:
Manufacturing Tomorrow
With unemployment still trending north of 8 percent, it is clear that our nation must do everything it can to address those barriers to job growth, such as tax policies and regulations, and develop affordable access to competitive enabling technologies for our number one source of jobs – manufacturers. Digital manufacturing is at the top of everyone’s list of enabling technologies.
For the past three years NCMS has been diligently working to lay the foundation for a secure and widely accessible environment for academic, public and private laboratories, consortia, manufacturers and suppliers to collaborate, share and enhance operations. The cornerstone for this environment will be a series of regional Predictive Innovation Centers (PIC) that will reach out to manufacturers in a plug and play format. The long-term impact of this effort will halve the cost of deploying digital manufacturing technologies in our nation’s manufacturers, broaden the base of innovation, and promote the application of these technologies across small, medium and large enterprises.
The applications for our manufactures are as broad as the horizon and as deep as our imagination. They include such tools as CAD, CAM, CAE, PLM, ERP and many others. They focus on energy, automotive, aerospace, defense, consumer products, electronics, health and any other sector you can name. Finally they apply to all aspects of the organization. These are technologies that are not limited to supporting the long historical applications within product develop and validation, but are expanding both out on the manufacturing floor and to the business offices. Leveraging data in real-time will revolutionize the assembly lines of yesterday into the smart facilities of tomorrow.
We are moving forward to make manufacturing tomorrow today!
