Digital Manufacturing 2Day returns to Coventry in October 2026 with a special emphasis on "The Metrology Backbone." This conference and networking event explores how measurement data serves as the foundation for the entire digital thread in modern manufacturing. While many events focus on the "how" of measurement, this event focuses on the "where to" – investigating how metrology data flows from portable devices into PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) systems and ERP databases to inform business decisions.
The event features a comprehensive agenda covering the lifecycle of a digital part. It starts with the "As-Built" measurement of components using portable arms and scanners, moving through to the creation of high-fidelity Digital Twins. Speakers from the aerospace, marine, and energy sectors will present case studies on how they use portable metrology to monitor structural health and predict maintenance needs before failures occur. The "2Day" format is designed to be high-impact, with fast-paced presentations followed by "Deep Dive" breakout rooms where attendees can grill experts on data security and interoperability.
One of the most anticipated segments is the "Metrology in the Cloud" session, which examines how decentralized teams can collaborate on measurement results in real-time. This is particularly relevant for global supply chains where a part measured in Coventry must be verified by a design team in another country. By attending, delegates will gain a roadmap for transforming their measurement department from a "gatekeeper" of quality into a "data provider" for the entire enterprise.
