IMTS 2022, taking place Sept. 12-17, in Chicago, Illinois, is the largest industry trade show in the Western Hemisphere and is where you’ll see a massive collection of physical and digital manufacturing featuring multitasking CNC and hybrid machines using automation, augmented and virtual reality, digital twin, generative design and more. You’ll also see the incredible strides made in cybersecurity, automation and robotics, and AM.

Cybersecurity

Protecting networks, machines and programs from digital attacks are at all-time highs. More companies that provide software for digital manufacturing are implementing safeguards and guidelines to ensure data is safe and behind firewalls. A visit to their booths will help you enhance your cybersecurity defense and prepare for the U.S. Department of Defense Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) implementation.

Automation and Robotics 

Augmenting CNC machines with automation and robotic systems are enabling a new generation of multitasking machines. You’ll get to see these machines combine cutting with turning, milling, drilling, tapping, deep-hole boring, hobbing, skiving, broaching, grinding and surface preparation. Hybrid multitasking machines add laser hybrid, friction stir welding, additive and hot wire EDM. By performing all work in a single clamping, these machines cut setup time, eliminate the risk of losing zero when parts move between workstations and free operators to perform other tasks.

Additive Manufacturing (AM)

The pace at which AM technologies have accelerated to improve performance, lower life cycle costs and help reshore production are contributing to an increased use of AM. At IMTS 2022, more than 80 companies will be displaying new additive systems and software in the AM Pavilion along with many others showcased throughout the show floor. And, it is not just small parts that are gaining traction in AM. Large print beds continue to expand and deliver deposition precision and repeatability for the toughest standards thanks to in situ metrology and closed-loop controls.

New to the North American market and IMTS, the AM4U Area, presented by Formnext, will feature talks about adopting industrial AM into your production process, as well as entrepreneurship and business models.

Highlights include:

In addition, the AM 2022 Conference at IMTS, brought to you by Gardner Business Media, focuses on industrial applications for making functional components and end-use production parts. It will cover the processes, applications and materials to give you practical knowledge on how to implement AM in your facility. 

The Future, Now!

IMTS 2022 will again host AMT’s Emerging Technology Center presenting the absolute latest advancements just on the horizon. You’ll see what manufacturers are presently using to drive outer space missions for long-term presence on the moon and deep space exploration. See it all at IMTS 2022, Sept. 12-17, 2022, McCormick Place, Chicago, Illinois. Get a head start, discover more at IMTS.com and register.
