Experience manufacturing innovation with AWS at IMTS 2024

Building a smart, connected product or machine that enables digital customer engagement, delights users, and enables new revenue streams can be challenging. You have to build secure applications that can ingest fleet data, and scale up and down as needed. You need visibility into how people are using your products and machines and how the they behave. You can address these challenges by ingesting, analyzing, and managing data in the cloud with advanced technologies like machine learning, analytics, and internet of things (IoT).

With the manufacturing industry entering a new era of digitization, it’s important to stay ahead of the technology curve. At the forefront of this evolution is the International Manufacturing Technology Show (IMTS), the largest and longest-running manufacturing technology trade show in the United States. This year’s event, held September 9-14, 2024, in Chicago, promises to be an exciting showcase of innovative technologies that enable machine builders and manufacturers to improve productivity and profitability.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) will be there – showcasing how a modern industrial data framework can lead to smarter, higher quality products. Stop by and visit our booth in the North Building, Level 3 – Booth 236217.

Why visit AWS at IMTS 2024

At the heart of AWS’s participation at IMTS 2024 is a booth filled with interactive demos demonstrating innovation and technology. Visitors can explore an e-bike smart factory machine demo (get a sneak peek here), interactive kiosks showcasing AWS services and solutions, partner kiosks, an IoT device wall, and an in-booth theater for insightful presentations. Visitors will learn how to use their product and machine data with technologies like generative AI, machine learning, computer vision, and IoT to improve product design, create smarter products, and drive smart manufacturing.

With any digital transformation effort, one theme continues to emerge: the need for a robust, modern data strategy. Industrial Data Fabric solutions on AWS help you create the data management architecture that enables scalable, unified, and integrated mechanisms to harness data as an asset. By providing economical, secure, and easy access to high quality datasets, these solutions enable business leaders to build the foundation for digital industrial transformation and optimize operations across use cases in maintenance, materials management, process optimization and smart product deployments.

Conference Sessions

Another highlight of AWS’s presence at IMTS 2024 is the session “How Generative AI Can Help Close the Manufacturing Skills Gap” at the IMTS Conference on Thursday at 9:00 am. This session will explore how generative AI can help address the growing skills gap in the manufacturing industry. We will also be highlighting other generative AI use case in the booth – stop by and ask!

AWS also has two sessions on the Automation Stage in the North Hall. AWS will co-present with Siemens on “Reimagining Manufacturing with Edge-to-Cloud Integration: Siemens’ Journey to Sustainable, Intelligent Factories” on Wednesday at 2:00 pm, and AWS customer INVISTA will present on Wednesday at 2 pm about how they “Elevated machine operator experience with the power of generative AI.”

Partner Ecosystem

AWS recognizes the importance of collaboration in driving innovation, and AWS partners plays a crucial role in delivering cutting-edge solutions for the manufacturing industry. At IMTS 2024, visitors can explore partner solutions in the AWS booth and through theater sessions – gaining insights into how these collaborations can speed time to results, and shape the future of manufacturing.
