Productive Insights Abound at Top Shops Panels
Top Shops at IMTS 2022 is more than an awards show. Find panels, a deep-dive into Top Shop trends and a glimpse at AI’s promise to machine shops.
The 2022 Modern Machine Shop Top Shops Workshop takes place from 12:30-4:30 p.m. on Tuesday, September 13, as day 2 of the IMTS Job Shops Workshop. IMTS attendees who have upgraded their tickets with access to this workshop are able to learn from this year’s Top Shops honorees, glean valuable insights from Top Shops data and learn more about the promise of AI for job shops at panels throughout the afternoon.
Each honoree was handpicked in its category — though all shops were well-rounded enough to qualify as Top Shops. This year, Rosenberger North America Pennsauken is the honoree for Machining Technology, Stecker Machine Company is the honoree for Shopfloor Practices & Performance, KLH Industries is the honoree for Business Strategy & Performance and A to Z Machine is the honoree for Human Resources.
The award ceremony takes place at 12:30 p.m. on Tuesday on the IMTS+ Main Stage. All four shops will partake in a panel discussion from 2:30-3:30 p.m. later that day in Grand Ballroom S100 A&B in the South Building.
Workshop attendees will also hear key insights from 2,000 Modern Machine Shop Top Shops Surveys from 1:30-2:15 p.m., also in Grand Ballroom S100 A&B. The Workshop will close with “The Artificially Intelligent Machine Shop,” a presentation from Matt Kirchner, president of ATS/LAB Midwest, from 3:30-4:30 p.m. in Grand Ballroom S100 A&B.
