Emerging technologies, accelerated product development and methods for implementing these new technologies on the shop floor are on the agenda for metal-forming and fabricating professionals attending Fabtech International 2004. The event, being held October 26-28 at the I-X Center in Cleveland, is co-sponsored by the Society of Manufacturing Engineers and The Fabricators and Manufacturers Association International.
"We're concentrating our attention on emerging technologies demanded by manufacturers who want to remain globally competitive," says John Catalano, show manager for SME. "All three technology areas of this event-forming and fabricating, tube and pipe, and welding-offer opportunities and solutions to attending companies."
