The Coordinate Metrology Society, in collaboration with UNC Charlotte, announced the fifth working meeting of the PrecisionPath Consortium for Large-Scale Manufacturing will be held on March 23, 2017, in Dallas, at the Hyatt Regency DFW, Terminal C. The PrecisionPath Consortium has worked steadily to verify and prioritize the technology requirements of industries that manufacture large-scale, high-accuracy parts and products.

The March program will build upon the results of the Oct. 2016 Focus Group Workshop, a continuation of the Planning and Visioning Council forums held over the past year and a half. The group held their inaugural meeting at the 2015 Coordinate Metrology Society Conference (CMSC) to establish short- and long-term goals and project timelines. The alliance is supported by an Advanced Manufacturing Technology Consortia (AMTech) grant from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
