The annual Engineered Casting Solutions Casting Competition provides an example of what metalcasting can achieve.

"You have to educate, then automate, or you’ll evaporate," an exhibitor at CastExpo told a couple of editors today. The declaration comes close to a general consensus around the show floor.

The rumor at CastExpo’08 is that exhibits are more impressive than they have been in years past.

Last night, the CastExpo’08 show floor was a mess. Less than 24 hours until the metalcasting masses were to flood in, the aisles between booths were bare, and crates lay open and strewn about.
