Berkeley, CA – VIMANA announced that company Founder and Chief Strategy Officer Will Sobel will be speaking and conducting MTConnect workshops at the North American Manufacturing Research Conference on June 8th through 10th. The conference is being held at UNC Charlotte.
William Sobel will be presenting to up to 100 students and professors the fundamentals of the MTConnect standard at NAMRC in the first of a series of workshops supported by ManTech. The workshop will cover all aspects of the MTConnect standard as well as provide some example research projects that demonstrate how the standard can be utilized to enable and simplify ground breaking research by providing the fundamental infrastructure needed for data analysis and prognostics. By wider dissemination of the MTConnect standard and increased support of manufacturing innovation, the same educational resources now are available to any institution of higher education. VIMANA will continue in its role as thought leader in manufacturing research and data analytics and continue to support innovation in our university and community college systems.
