Experts share industry forecasts through an interactive fringe event programme
Progressive ideas are constantly floating around within the industrial automation market and the engaging seminar programme seeks to unveil them. This year, SIAF will facilitate thought-provoking industry dialogues by delivering two key presentations.
Following the success of the debut participation by the Japanese Electrical Manufacturers’ Association (JEMA) at the seminar programme last year, SIAF will join hands this year with Nippon Electric Control Equipment Industries Association (NECA) from Japan to present “ZERO Manufacturing--Future Vision of Manufacturing”. Riding on the wave of Industry 4.0, NECA advocates “5ZERO Manufacturing” which examines five key aspects – “Zero defects”, “Zero production loss”, “Zero late deliveries”, “Zero accidents” and “Zero downtime”. The forum will draw a road map for the future of manufacturing by exploring how to deploy IoT, big data, artificial intelligence, cooperative robots and the “PDCA” cycle method to provide value-added services for the industry.
Meanwhile the Smart Industry Solutions Summit will continue to offer industry insights to participants. During the “Machine Vision” session, notable machine vision companies will hold a diverse array of seminars and some of the highlighted presentations will include:
- “OPT's Intelligent Vision System (SCI) makes the application of computer vision easier” hosted by OPT
- “Intelligent Vision Technology Applied in Automation” led by Daheng
- “Introduction of the Next Evolution in 3D Scanning and Inspection” presented by LMI Technologies
- “Absolute Position Measurement System of Well Path” presented by Kuebler
