The Pulse of Sheet Metal Fabrication

Today’s fabrication shops are changing fast—new tools, tighter schedules, and more prefab than ever. In this interactive session, Jonathan Marsh will take a real-time look at how shops are adapting through live polling and open discussion.

"We’ll compare what’s working on the floor, from layout and automation to material flow and quality control and identify where shops are finding real gains. Bring your experience, learn what others are doing, and leave with practical ideas to make your fab operation stronger." This session will compare the results of a similar session done at the 2026 Fab Forum as attendees respond to a live survey.
