If you look around your workplace, I’m certain that most things you see have been assembled in one way or another—from the telephone and computer to the very chair you spend most of the day sitting in. This month, people from all sectors of the assembly industry will gather at The Assembly Show, scheduled for October 24-26 at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Ill. Now in its fifth year, the event will offer three days of educational sessions, hundreds of exhibiting companies, thousands of industry professionals, a dynamic keynote speaker, and two networking receptions.
I’m excited to host one of the new Tech Talk sessions, a 20-min event intended to provide an opportunity for manufacturing professionals to share solutions to common problems in product assembly. The “Broken Bonds— Challenges in Adhesive Bonding” Tech Talk takes place 1:40-2 p.m. on Wednesday, October 25. Find out more about The Assembly Show on p. 16.
