Motion Control Technical Conference
Motion Control Showcase

Successful distributors strive to build a competitive advantage in their marketplace.  They continuously seek new ways to leverage the potential of their people and process.  The Motion Control Technical Conference provides an excellent opportunity to combine technical expertise with PTDA-style networking.

The Motion Control Technical Conference will be the premier event for Technical Specialist’s professional development.  It will provide an opportunity for Technical Specialists—who support the growth of PTDA distributors on a day-to-day basis—to get an overview of the latest trends in motion control.  The conference will feature six unique technical speakers, each offering a glimpse into a particular segment of the motion control industry. 

The conference will feature ample time for individual question and answers as well as business discussions.   This unique event brings together the very people who drive a big piece of this rapidly emerging market.  Part forum, part technical benchmarking, and all focused on the latest trends and information in the motion control arena.
