DECEMBER 2022AEROSPACEDEFENSEREVIEW.COM8By Kevin Brown, SVP of Global Operations, Milliken & Company Textile Division Technology has always played a critical role in manufacturing--from hand production methods, then machines and identifying how new advancements like cloud computing, the internet of things, and mobility can affect and improve the industry.
