The emergence of private equity and vibe coding in fabrication
Description
In this episode of Next-Gen Metal Fab, we break down the biggest trends and takeaways from this year’s FABTECH.
From the surge of cobots and advanced automation tools on display to the practical challenges of integrating and maintaining them, the show revealed just how fast the industry is evolving. We also dig into the wave of private equity interest sweeping through the fragmented fabrication sector and what it really takes to scale these businesses successfully.
Plus, we explore how vibe coding, AI-powered software and large language models could disrupt traditional B2B platforms, and why laser welding is emerging as a key productivity driver for high-mix job shops.
