Coherix CEO Dwight Carlson to Speak at Sustainability Engineering Workshop

Dwight Carlson Speaking at MAX

Coherix is proud to announce that Dwight Carlson, Chairman and CEO of Coherix, will be speaking at the Manufacturing & Automation eXchange (MAX) at the Music City Center in Nashville, TN.

Workshop 4: Engineering Sustainability: Next-Generation Adhesive, Coating, and Packaging Technologies

This workshop will explore the breakthroughs reshaping modern production, with a focus on precision adhesive dispensing applications, a critical enabler of quality, efficiency and sustainability in advanced manufacturing. Topics include next-generation adhesive dispensing systems, emerging de-bond-on-demand methods, rapid UV/EB curing innovations and the latest advances in chemical recycling and de-polymerization. Together, these technologies are driving greater efficiency, reducing material waste, expanding design freedom and supporting a more circular manufacturing economy.

During the session, Carlson will share insights on how computer vision, real-time process monitoring and closed-loop control are transforming adhesive dispensing from a traditionally open-loop process into a data-driven, highly controlled operation. These advancements enable manufacturers to apply precisely the right amount of material, improve first-pass yield, reduce rework and meet increasingly stringent sustainability goals.

Dwight will join an expert panel of industry leaders, including representatives from the American Chemistry Council, Saint Clair Systems, Tesa and Allied UV to discuss how advanced computer vision and process control technologies are enabling more reliable, repeatable and sustainable adhesive and coating applications across a wide range of manufacturing environments.

Coherix looks forward to contributing to this important conversation on the future of precision dispensing, automation and sustainable production technologies.
