Designing and validating a new product prototype is just the beginning of every journey. Effectively managing the transition from prototype to production for printed circuit board assemblies can stress even the most mature processes.
Join MacroFab for a product demonstration on how to effectively manage prototype production, version and track changes, transition designs from engineering to purchasing teams, and manage purchasing through the MacroFab platform.

What you will learn:
1. How to use the MacroFab platform to price and order prototype designs
2. Versioning, change tracking, and locking down production designs
3. Managing the purchasing workflow between engineering and manufacturing teams in the MacroFab platform

Every product starts at prototyping, but not every product makes it past that that stage. Getting your new design to production as quickly as possible reduces risk and accelerates revenue. Digital manufacturing tools and platforms enable product teams to design, test, iterate, and solve production challenges faster than ever before.
Join design and manufacturing experts from Altium, MacroFab, and Xometry to learn how to accelerate your new products from idea to customer and capture market value away from companies using traditional tools and methodologies.

What you will learn:

1. The current state of digital manufacturing, platforms, tools, and capabilities
2. Leveraging digital manufacturing and design tools to accelerate prototyping
3. Utilizing digital manufacturing platforms to solve prototype to production transition challenges

Digital manufacturing platforms today have a wide range of capabilities at every stage of production. Bringing a product to market used to be a slow, manual process. But in the last five years, businesses have been able to accelerate product design, prototype development, NPI process, and high-volume production using digital manufacturing platforms to gain access to thousands of electronics assembly factories, machine shops, and plastics fabrication facilities.

Join design and manufacturing experts from Altium, MacroFab, and Xometry to learn how building a digital thread from design stages to production at scale allows you to eliminate delays caused by the supply chain crisis and build products faster using cloud technologies.

What will you learn:

1. What is the current state of digital manufacturing? What kind of products can be built using these platforms, and what production scale can you reach?
2. What range of processes do these platforms enable? Can you really build fully assembled products, tested and packaged products using digital manufacturing platforms?
3. Why integration between design tools and digital manufacturing platforms enables faster product development, with significantly reduced errors and better visibility.
4. What will digital manufacturing platforms enable me to do in the future? What exactly is Industry 4.0, and does it matter?
