Ultra Consultants Founder, CEO Jeff Carr to Present at Smart Manufacturing Session at FABTECH 2018

Presentation focuses on digital transformation in manufacturing

Ultra Consultants, Inc., an independent research and enterprise solutions consulting firm serving the manufacturing and distribution industries, today announced that Founder and CEO Jeff Carr will deliver a presentation titled Real World Scenarios in Digital Transformation at FABTECH 2018 in Atlanta, Georgia. The session is scheduled for the first day of the event, Tuesday, November 6.


Offered as part of FABTECHs Smart Manufacturing session, Carrs presentation will explain how digital transformation in manufacturing is a critical element in realigning technology and business processes. Attendees will learn about common business drivers and hear real-world scenarios that describe the journey to digital transformation for manufacturers and distributors.

Technological advancements like the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) have disrupted the manufacturing sector and demand new levels of data integration. Transforming businesses to leverage the benefits of IIoT will ultimately prove to be a competitive differentiator for manufacturers ready to adopt them vs. slow adopting competitors.
Register today to join the more than 35,000 FABTECH attendees. FABTECH is the largest metal forming, fabricating, welding and finishing event in North America and features many of the industrys leading thought leaders.

"Digital transformation presents a tremendous business opportunity for manufacturers when properly approached in a strategic manner," stated Ultra Consultants CEO and Founder Jeff Carr. "Smart manufacturing is unachievable without transforming the business through digital technology platforms and tight integration with enterprise applications like ERP."

WE SOLVE WELDING TECHNOLOGY CHALLENGES. FROM A SINGLE BATCH TO SERIES PRODUCTION

Ever since the invention of our "cold" MAG welding process Cold Metal Transfer (CMT), if not earlier, we have continuously achieved a technological edge in many welding-related areas, resulting in cutting-edge mechanized and automated welding systems. Advanced power source technology stabilizes the arc and ensures perfect welding results. Modern monitoring sensors optimize guidance of the welding torch and compensate for component tolerances. Last but not least, smart data documentation systems assist in perfecting the welding process. Collaborative systems, smart sensor technology, software solutions for data management, and offline programming including welding simulation open up profitable welding opportunities for metal processing companies starting with a single batch. That is why our robotic welding cells prove profitable not only for large companies, but also for small and medium-sized enterprises.
