EAST Session: Moderated by: Mark Michalski Adopting smart technologies like IoT, AI, and automation isn’t just about innovation—it’s about alignment, impact, and readiness. In this practical, strategy-focused panel, hear directly from manufacturers and technology experts who’ve successfully navigated the journey from pilot projects to scalable solutions. Join us to explore how small and mid-sized manufacturers can: - Align tech investments with business goals - Learn from real-world success stories in aerospace, medtech, and machining - Upskill their workforce to support digital transformation - Access regional resources for implementation support - Whether you're just exploring smart tech or already scaling, you’ll leave with actionable insights and connections to help future-proof your operations.

EAST Session: Abstract : Manufacturers are keen and pragmatic on how their capital is used to advance their state of manufacturing.  And it is clear to them how investments in physical assets bring operational value.  What is not so clear is the value-add of technology to their operations.  In this session, you will learn how to translate the value of technology to operations to facilitate internal planning and justification for technology investments. You will learn how to build a business case around technology to show the expected value and ROI of that investment. Using this approach, the project team can report the financial gains to key constituents to help with continued funding and support.  Significance/Importance : Manufacturers are keen and pragmatic on how their capital is used to advance their state of manufacturing.  And it is clear to them how investments in physical assets bring operational value.  What is not so clear is the value-add of technology to their operations.  In this session, you will learn how to translate the value of technology to operations to facilitate internal planning and justification for technology investments.

EAST Exhibitor: Mitee-Bite Products, LLC began in 1986 in an oversized 2 car garage with the original Mitee-Bite hex clamp created to save time on a reoccurring production job and grew to become the innovator of compact, low-profile edge clamps for CNC machining. Fast forward more than 30 years later and we continue to develop new products providing customers with a wide assortment of high-density low profile clamping solutions and assistance with clamping recommendations. We have expanded to also provide top level CAD designs and complete turn-key projects. We place our focus on what matters most on your shop floor… making chips! Keeping the spindle running, cutter engagement, reducing idle spindle time, saving on material cost, reducing set-up times and standardization, all contribute to our belief “let the machines work harder while you lower your labor cost and increase capacity.” Mitee-Bite Products are available through many qualified distributors around the world.
