Tezmaksan Robot Technologies announced it participated as a platinum sponsor of the 12th UTIS International Congress on Machining, which took place from November 1-3, 2024, at the Juju Premier Palace Hotel in Kemer, Antalya, Türkiye. This prestigious event gathered researchers, academicians, industry leaders, entrepreneurs and students for an engaging exchange of ideas in the field of machining.
As a prominent player in the manufacturing sector, Tezmaksan’s sponsorship underscores its commitment to driving innovation, promoting knowledge-sharing and fostering collaboration within the industry. Over the course of the three-day congress, attendees had the opportunity to participate in a range of activities including expert panels, industry sessions, open forums and focussed group workshops. The UTIS 2024 programme of events was designed to facilitate networking, encourage partnerships and inspire fresh ideas.
With six keynote speakers, the event explored a wide range of cutting-edge topics shaping the future of machining and manufacturing. These included the modelling and optimisation of machining operations and the mechanics, dynamics and stability of complex machining processes. The role of AI and data-driven technologies, such as digital twins, was also a key focus, highlighting how these innovations are transforming decision-making and operational efficiency on the shop floor.
In addition, the congress delved into advanced CAM applications, the machinability of new materials and surface integrity to provide insights into improving precision and performance in machining. Lastly, sustainability in manufacturing was also aa crucial subject, with discussions on how smart technologies can help reduce environmental impact while optimising resource efficiency.
These themes align closely with Tezmaksan’s own focus on CNC automation and digital transformation. For example, its CubeBOX CNC automation system offers a flexible solution for enhancing productivity and reducing downtime, which directly reflects the industry’s shift toward smarter, more efficient production methods.
“As a platinum sponsor of UTIS 2024, we’re committed to offering our expertise in CNC automation and digital transformation, and advancing critical discussions in these areas,” explained Hakan Aydoğdu, CEO at Tezmaksan. “Our CubeBOX system optimises machining by enabling 24/7 automated CNC machine tending, reducing downtime and boosting efficiency. It integrates seamlessly with all CNC machines and uses our RoboCAM+ software to eliminate manual robot programming.”
A special highlight of the congress was the celebration of Professor Yusuf Altıntaş’ 70th birthday, in honour of his invaluable contributions to the field of machining. As a highly influential figure in the field of mechanical engineering, he is particularly recognised for his work on metal cutting mechanics, machine tool dynamics and virtual machining technologies. The UTIS Steering Committee dedicated the first day of the event to commemorate this milestone.
The 12th UTIS International Congress on Machining was an unmissable event for anyone involved in the machining sector.
