The keynote speakers and panelists come from the high- est level of government and business. They come to share their vision of the potential of technology, collaboration and public policy to transform manufacturing—concepts that attendees can actually experience on the exposition floor and in in-depth conference sessions. It’s the one event that brings together high-concept, integrated solutions and real- world applications.
Among the keynote speakers this year:
Jens Gralfs Vice President
Manufacturing Engineering Assembly & Installation Airbus Operations GmbH
Adele Ratcliff Director
DoD Manufacturing Technology (ManTech) Program
ODASD (MIBP)
Don A. Kinard, PhD Senior Technical Fellow Deputy, F-35 Fighter Production System Lockheed Martin

High-Speed, Five-Axis CNCs Smooth accurate simultaneous five-axis machin- ing is achieved with Fanuc’s 30i- B/31i-B5 CNCs using High-Speed Tool Center Point Control (TCP) with new fairing technology. Cycle times are dramatically reduced while part accuracy and quality are improved. In addition, best-in-class Series 30i-Model B controls offer enhanced high-speed and large-capacity multipath Power Motion Control (PMC). Large- scale sequence control with a maximum of five concurrent independent ladders is possible. Models include 30i-B, 31i-B, 31i-B5, 32i-B & 35i-B CNCs. Execution of common instruc- tions is over 2.5× faster than the previous generation, with ad- ditional capability of high-speed module executing every 1 ms.
