The Road to Innovate Showcase 2010 at Austech

5 May 10

Innovate 2010 is a showcase event that will exhibit leading manufacturing technologies, management methodologies and process techniques (TMT’s), and encourage the early adoption of these fundamentals to small and medium sized businesses in Australia. At this year’s event, the huge 20m x 30m stand will show the collaboration between these TMT’s.  Experts will be on hand to ensure visitors are understand the complete picture and benefit that can be achieved.

The Innovate stand will be divided into 5 key cells that will exhibit different types of technology and business practises.

Cell-One:  Quick Change

What you will see: The importance of set-up, well equipped and trained personnel deploying of quick-change methodologies will be displayed alongside a turning and milling centre. Pre-set quick change tooling, chucking, and metrology will be connected through the multi tasking lathe to a V8 tyre changing competition with great prizes to be won.

Cell-Two: Light to Medium Fabrication

What you will see: Technologies relevant to light to medium fabrication companies; companies that may be looking to expand their capability in-house rather than outsourcing. Compact laser cutting machine, electric press-brake and robot welding; Fast, small footprint, quick install, fabrication capability. A structural fabrication line with on board plasma cutting offering process abilities to steel construction component manufacturers.

Cell-Three: Business Best Practice

What you will see: No agenda, unbiased, non threatening interaction with manufacturing industry leaders. Sit down and discuss issues covering Finance, HR, Operations, Quality, Government Assistance Programs, Lean Manufacturing and Engineering Design.

Cell-Four: Ultrasonic Machining

What you will see: Small scale milling of complex, difficult to machine materials and components. High speed, high accuracy and small footprint alternative technologies in simultaneous five axis and metrology, suiting medical, dental and other small scale machining needs. Ultrasonic milling.

Cell-Five: Envelope Milling

What you will see: From scan to machine; Reverse engineered to product reality. Follow the process step by step all the way to a large envelope, robot machined outcome.
