Event Description

June 11th: A full‑day immersion in connected woodworking, demonstrating how SWOOD and Biesse create a continuous digital flow from design to finished product, with live machine demos and interactive workshops. It combines high‑level workflow insights with hands‑on sessions where attendees design, program, and run parts on real equipment.

 June 12th: An on-demand day tailored for companies that want to go deeper into the digital manufacturing workflow. Our teams will be available to demonstrate and discuss our solutions tailored to your parts, projects, or needs. Please specify your interest in participating on the second day when registering for the event.
