Welcome to the Proceedings of the Global Symposium on Adaptive Manufacturing (GSAM 2026). As the first edition of GSAM, the symposium was established to provide an international platform for researchers, academics, industry professionals and students to exchange knowledge, present their research and discuss emerging developments in adaptive, intelligent and advanced manufacturing. GSAM 2026 focused on the growing integration of advanced manufacturing with artificial intelligence, machine learning, computer vision, robotics, Industry 4.0 and digital twin technologies. The symposium brought together research spanning additive and advanced manufacturing, intelligent process monitoring and control, computational modelling and simulation, sustainable manufacturing and predictive maintenance. Through these themes, GSAM 2026 aimed to encourage interdisciplinary discussion on the development of manufacturing systems that are more intelligent, adaptive, efficient and sustainable.
