Smart Manufacturing 2026 — Si Racha Edition

📍 Si Racha Hall, 4nd Floor, Central Si Racha

As manufacturing becomes increasingly competitive and production complexity continues to rise, manufacturers are seeking ways to improve productivity while maintaining precision and reducing operational complexity.

One of the key technologies gaining importance in modern manufacturing is the multi-tasking machine — a platform capable of integrating multiple machining processes into a single system.

At Smart Manufacturing 2026, one of the featured conference sessions is:

Multi-Tasking Machines for Productivity and Precision

This session explores how multi-tasking technologies can help manufacturers reduce cycle time, simplify production flow, and improve overall manufacturing efficiency.

Featuring insights from leading global machine tool builders including Okuma, Mazak, Index and Tongtai.

Productivity Today Is More Than Just Speed

In today’s manufacturing environment, productivity is no longer measured solely by production speed or machine utilization.

Manufacturers are facing:

Increasingly complex workpieces
Shorter lead times
More frequent changeovers
Rising labor and operational costs

As a result, manufacturers are focusing on reducing process complexity, minimizing unnecessary part handling, and streamlining production systems.

Why Multi-Tasking Machines Are Becoming Essential

Multi-tasking machines integrate multiple machining operations — such as turning, milling, and drilling — into a single platform.

This approach helps manufacturers:

Reduce process steps
Minimize setups
Reduce cycle time
Improve machining accuracy
Simplify manufacturing workflows

Multi-tasking technologies also support flexible manufacturing strategies and enable smoother integration with automation-ready production environments.

Manufacturers exploring flexible and scalable production strategies may also be interested in the conference session:

“Mastering 5-Axis Strategy for High-Mix and Scalable Production”

The session explores how 5-axis platforms can support high-mix manufacturing, automation-ready production, and long-term production scalability.
