The Power Transmission Distributors Association (PTDA) will convene for the PTDA 2022 Industry Summit in Nashville, Tenn. on October 27-29, 2022. With more than 500 delegates in the power transmission/motion control (PT/MC) industry expected to attend, representing over 200 PTDA distributor and manufacturer companies, the Industry Summit—themed “Amp Up”—will offer cross-channel networking, shared learning and collaborative experiences. 

The International Conference and Expo on Nanotechnology and Nanomaterials promotes quality research and real-world impact in an atmosphere of true international cooperation between scientists and engineers by bringing together again the world class researchers, international communities and industrial heads to discuss the latest developments and innovations in the fields of nanotechnology and nanomaterials.

Manufacturers in every industry are adopting robotic automation at an accelerating rate.  The investment required for automation is often significant and comes with a host of options.  What type or size of robot should be selected? What throughput can be achieved through this new system? Will the work cell fit into my production line? All of these questions can be answered with robot simulation software. 

EPTDA’s Annual Convention is highly acclaimed by PT/MC professionals as the leading event in the industry, providing outstanding time- and cost-saving solutions for expanding business networks and enhancing knowledge.

Elgeti Engineering once again is offering its online bearing seminars for Fall 2022. Special packages are available for online 90-minute sessions.

Industry and research are already working today on the mobility of tomorrow. Electromobility stands for the combination of climate protection, social change and economic success. The powertrain of the future will play a central role in this. In order to find meaningful and successful solutions, orientation and expertise are required. E-MOTIVE by FVA (Wolfsburg, Germany) offers the best opportunity to do so.

The requirements in gear manufacturing are increasing dramatically which delivers a dilemma between productivity (scale) and flexibility (scope) of today’s technical solutions. Lead times need to be shortened in order to increase productivity while batch sizes are getting smaller and individual geometric features (topological modifications) push the need for intelligent support by manufacturing simulation and closed-loop approaches. Learn this and more at the International Conference on Gear Production (Garching, Germany). 

TPS (Houston, TX) offers a forum for the exchange of ideas between rotating equipment engineers and technicians worldwide. Now surpassing 49 years, TPS is known for its impact on turbomachinery, pump, oil and gas, petrochemical, power, aerospace, chemical and water industries through an exhibition and a technical program. 

The goal of the AGMA Emerging Technology committees is to identify, investigate and inform AGMA members of emerging technologies that may disrupt or significantly impact the power transmission industry.
