Next stop: Tucson, Arizona.📍🇺🇸 Spent the day with Dylan from @proteummach talking about his manufacturing processes, his journey into automation, and why having partners you can truly rely on makes all the difference.
Real insights and a genuine passion for quality and continuous improvement. ⭐
Big thanks to Dylan for giving us a look into his day-to-day operation. Looking forward to sharing the final video with you soon. 🎥

We’re excited to welcome Dylan Jackson as a Panel Host at The Machining Summit.
Dylan will be leading the conversation for:
The Automation Equation: Cells, Cobots, and Capacity
Automation isn’t a buzzword anymore — it’s a strategic decision. Shops today are asking real questions:
• When does a machine cell make sense? • Where do cobots actually add value? • How do you increase capacity without increasing chaos? • What’s the ROI and what’s the risk?
This panel will break down the real equation behind automation, not just the technology, but the mindset, workflow planning, and operational discipline required to make it work.
If you’re thinking about expanding capacity, improving consistency, or building a more resilient shop floor, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
Join us at The Machining Summit!

The Machining Summit on the Summit brings together some of the most respected, battle tested voices in manufacturing. The people building the shops, technologies, teams, and strategies that are shaping the future of this industry.
Founders. CEOs. Shop owners. Engineers. Operators.
Across panels and small group conversations, we’re diving into what actually matters: • Where machining is headed next • Automation, capacity, and scaling the right way • Tooling, machines, and workholding fundamentals • Business focus, funding, and sustainable growth • Developing the next generation of machining talent And many more conversations!
Here’s the difference: These speakers aren’t elevated above the room, they’re in it.
You’ll ride chairlifts together.
You’ll drive RC rock crawlers together. You’ll sit on couches together. You’ll share meals together.
Because the best insights don’t come from a stage, they come from trust, proximity, and real conversation.
If you care about the future of manufacturing and want to be part of the conversations shaping it, this is where you need to be.

@justinsgray has been a wonderful friend and pushing me to get my stuff together with @hypermill for the last month or so. When I had my trainer from hyperMill (shoutout Uday) here this week I thought it was only appropriate to make a 3D Pie Chart for the person who loves them the most 🤣 Gave me a great opportunity to play with a bunch of toolpaths, dial in our Virtual Machine, and have a lot of fun in the process on our @hermleusa C250
