DESCRIPTION:<p>Global supply chains are under pressure. Lead times have str
 etched\, supply is constrained by ongoing disruptions\, and the traditiona
 l model of centralized production is showing its limits. Distributed manuf
 acturing &mdash\; building closer to where parts are needed &mdash\; is em
 erging as a practical alternative.</p>\n\n<p>This webinar examines the mic
 rofactory model: a compact\, integrated production system that combines ro
 botic large-format additive manufacturing\, multi-axis CNC milling\, and A
 I-driven process intelligence to manufacture large industrial components a
 t or near point of use. Nils Niemeyer\, chief growth officer at Caracol\, 
 and Leslie Bush\, senior customer success engineer\, will walk through how
  the model works\, what enabling technologies make it viable today\, and w
 hat real deployments look like across construction\, composites\, and indu
 strial manufacturing.</p>\n\n<p>If you are evaluating strategies to bring 
 more production in-house\, reduce supply chain exposure\, or scale manufac
 turing capacity without a greenfield facility investment\, this session is
  for you.</p>\n\n<h3>Agenda</h3>\n\n<p> </p>\n\n<ul>\n	<li>The manufacturi
 ng moment: why traditional centralized production is under pressure and wh
 at the shift toward distributed manufacturing means for industrial produce
 rs</li>\n	<li>The microfactory model: how the convergence of robotics\, so
 ftware and AI makes compact\, integrated production systems viable today</
 li>\n	<li>Technology in practice: a look at robotic large-format additive 
 manufacturing\, multi-axis CNC milling and AI-driven process intelligence 
 working as an integrated system</li>\n	<li>Real-world deployments: custome
 r case studies across construction\, composites and industrial manufacturi
 ng</li>\n	<li>Getting started: what manufacturers need to evaluate before 
 pursuing a microfactory or distributed production model</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>
