SUMMARY:Engineering Smarter With AI - AI's Pertinent Role On The Shop Floor
DESCRIPTION:Explore the dynamic landscape where design meets fabrication\, paving the way for groundbreaking advancements in manufacturing. Through insightful presentations\, interactive showcases\, and collaborative discussions\, attendees will gain invaluable knowledge to stay ahead of the competition. \nAgenda:\n\n10:30 AM: Arrivals & Networking\n11:00 AM: Kick-off & Welcome\n11:10 AM: HCL CAMWorks – Alejandro Murillo\n11:40 AM: Using AI Effectively in the Modern Workplace – Ben Gumness\n12:00 PM: Lunch / Networking\n01:00 PM: Using AI with SOLIDWORKS: Assistants\, Automation\, and What’s Coming – Cody Pendzich\n01:45 PM: Predictive Maintenance Strategy – Larry D.\n02:15 PM – 02:30 PM: Closing / Networking / Showcases\n\n  \n\nMEET YOUR PRESENTERS \n\n \nAlejandro Murillo\, GSC 3D \nLearn about the CAMWorks Virtual Machine Simulator module in CAMWorks. CAMWorks Virtual Machine offers a comprehensive\, integrated simulation of your entire CNC Machine. Unlike standard simulation that only tracks the tool\, this module monitors the machine components\, fixtures\, and tool changers against the actual G-code output. It’s a proactive solution for verifying complex 3-to-5 axis programs\, ensuring your code is optimized and ‘collision-free’ from the first line to the last. \n\n \nBen Gumness\, GSC 3D \nWhile more than 15% of the world is actively using artificial intelligence\, only a small fraction are leveraging it proficiently—especially within the workplace. Many organizations have begun experimenting with AI\, but few have developed the strategies\, workflows\, and skills needed to unlock its full potential. This session will explore practical ways to move beyond basic usage and toward meaningful AI enablement across your team. Join us to learn how to build capability\, drive adoption\, and confidently integrate the latest technology into your everyday business processes. \n  \n\n \nCody Pendzich\, GSC 3D \nThis session looks at how AI can support SOLIDWORKS design work today and in the near future. We will briefly set a baseline with a few built-in automation features\, then focus on newer assistant-style capabilities and upcoming companions like Leo and Marie. We will also share practical ways to use external tools like ChatGPT alongside SOLIDWORKS for documentation\, ideation\, and troubleshooting\, with examples you can apply to your day-to-day CAD process. \n  \n\n \nLarry Duford\,  Ellison Technologies \nCNC machines typically experience 40–80 hours of downtime per month\, including 15–40 hours of unplanned downtime caused by issues like tool breakage\, wear\, and equipment faults. By implementing predictive maintenance and intelligent factory tools manufacturers can detect problems earlier and reduce unplanned downtime.  Learn how a predictive maintenance can translate to substantial time and money savings.
