Reshoring, the return of manufacturing to the U.S., is raising domestic output, and consumer demand for Made in USA products is fueling a resurgence. This 60-minute webinar on rebuilding American manufacturing explains the trends and technologies behind it.
You'll see how Lean training helps companies become more efficient and competitive globally, and how Advanced Manufacturing, or Industry 4.0, technologies contribute: additive manufacturing, artificial intelligence, automation and robotics, and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT).
Case stories show companies that have reshored, started a Lean journey or adopted these technologies.
