ABOUT THE CONFERENCE International Conference on Advances in Manufacturing Technology ICAMT 2012 is organized by Chennai Institute of Technology in association with ACMEE during 15 - 17 June 2012. Mission of ICAMT 2012 conference is to bridge the gap between academics and industry in the field of ‘Manufacturing Technology. The ICAMT 2012 Conference brings leading researchers from academia, R&D organizations and industries from various countries together under one roof and at one time, to discuss emerging trends of new technologies, Machine tools, Cutting ToolsManufacturing systems & Processes, Materials and Automation. This ICAMT is planned to be held once in. two years and will reflect the changing seer ‘manufacturing and vill provide the much needed focus for future growth. (OF TCAMT 2012 NAAT Se 2 remains as one of the principle means through which wealth is created. The ithe guce of new manufacturing technologies, spurred by competition, leads to exceptional ive and new products and processes. A critical step in preparing for the future will be the [development of an underlying technical foundation through research by industry and academic | institutions. The aim of this conference is to provide an interdiseiplinary platform for engineers, reseatchers and people from industries to discuss and promote distribution of research results and [Mechnology transfer in all areas of manufacturing technology and automation,os CALL FOR PAPERS NY [Original Mesearcll papers are invita gbinission, but ot tilted 10 the fa \ Materials: i] Metals, Plastics, Ceramics, Composites, Glass, Ahesives, Polymers,, Biopolymers, Nano ‘materials, Material structure and Properties, Advanced materials and Selection of materials.
