The Future of Making Things is here

By Quadra Solutions Ltd

18 Aug 2015

With the manufacturing industry on the brink of the biggest changes since the industrial revolution, effective product design has never been more important.

The demand for an increasingly customised and intelligent product experience is growing, the way we design products is changing and the way in which we manufacture those products is shifting.

A new future of making things is emerging.

Join Quadra Solutions, C-TEC and Autodesk to learn more about: The technology disruptors making an impact in the manufacturing industry right now Emerging Manufacturing trends that are changing the way business operates How top manufacturers are embracing these trends to innovate, differentiate and compete globally Learn how new technologies such as smart machines, cloud and mobile are driving manufacturing and how you can incorporate new strategies for success. Connected products and network intelligence is the new norm and integrated product development platforms can help companies work smarter right now.

This free to attend event will be held at the head offices of C-TEC, one of the UK’s largest independent manufacturers of fire alarm and call system equipment, on the 3rd November 2015 in Wigan and will include presentations from Autodesk, a tour of C-TEC’s innovative and industry-leading factory and an opportunity to network with manufacturing organisations from across the North West.

Andrew Marshall, senior development engineer for C-TEC said: “The speed of technological enhancement is continuously increasing and it will be our ability as manufacturers to adapt and keep up with these developments that will be the standard by which success is measured."

James Latham, sales manager for Quadra Solutions, said: "The future of making things is certainly here, and it’s an exciting time to be a part of it. Now we just need to embrace it."
