Glass Processing Automation Days (GPAD) is a two-day event allowing glass fabricators to investigate new and innovative glass fabrication technologies and discover the potential of automation and integration. GPAD was founded in 2013 and NGA assumed the role of organizer in 2019, with FeneTech recognized as a “Founding Partner.”
The public will hear from subject matter experts on ways to increase efficiencies, profits and safety. Topics will include building a sales strategy when launching a new product, avoiding automation scares and many more.
NGA provides a safe place for competitors to ask each other and suppliers burning questions in a social, conversational setting.
NGA asked glass fabricators what they need now; here are program highlights:
- How to solve recruitment, retention and training challenges
- How to improve tempering and avoid costly breakages
- How artificial intelligence will impact companies
- How to successfully launch a new product line
- Key considerations for integrating automated machinery
- What to know before buying a robot
- New ways of measuring distortion in glass
See below for the full GPAD conference schedule.
GPAD will be co-located with NGA’s Building Envelope Contractors (BEC) Conference.
