Technologies like CAD, CAE, RP,
CIM, PLM, etc have been the driving
factors for evolution of product
life cycle by revolutionising conceptualisation,
design, detailing, analysis and
manufacturing procedures. A synergic
integration of these technologies
is essential for faster and profitable
product development. Several organizations
in India conduct seminars, workshops,
conferences and exhibitions with
focus on a few specific segments
of product development. However,
an acute need has always been felt
for a common platform that could
bring together scientists, engineers,
designers, entrepreneurs, etc involved
in different domains ranging from
design to manufacture. In 2003,
a group of Scientists, Industrialist,
Academicians and Professionals organized
themselves to formulate a consortium
of professional bodies to organize
the event ‘TEAM TECH 2004’ which
successfully fulfilled the need
of providing a common platform for
interaction among interrelated product
development groups.
The TEAM TECH 2004 International
Conference provided the platform
for the latest technologies and
solutions for the industries in
Rapid Prototyping, Micro &
Nano Technologies, Industrial
Design, Product Engineering, Advanced
Manufacturing & Tooling Technologies,
Automation for Automotive Industries,
Advanced Finite Element Techniques,
Design of Materials, etc. Around
thousand delegates from Automotive,
Aeronautical, Defence, Space Research
and Engineering enterprises of
Germany, Malaysia, Singapore,
Belgium, Finland, UK, USA, China,
Japan, Israel, Thailand and India
participated in the event. There
was a good feedback and support
from the Industries, R&D establishments
and academic organisations for
conducting a similar type of conference
annually with new updates and
Sponsors/ Exhibitors giving encouragement
to continue the TEAM TECH event.
Thus TEAM TECH 2004 was followed
by TEAM TECH 2006, TEAM TECH 2007
and TEAM TECH 2008. And now TEAM
TECH 2009 is scheduled during
19 -21 November 2009 at Bangalore.
The objectives of the
event are :
