The Future of Manufacturing
Advancing the 4th Industrial Revolution
Within Industry 4.0, technologies such as IoT, big data and artificial intelligence (AI), are reshaping the industrial environment and driving improvements in productivity as well as automation.
Up until now, the manufacturing process may be changing with the emergence of Industry 4.5, as priorities shift to sustainability, speed-to-market, and supply chain resilience.
Innovations, such as additive manufacturing (AM), have the potential to transform manufacturing as we know it, expanding design freedom, reducing time to market, bringing production closer to demand, and improving industrial sustainability.
The future will require the large-scale use of novel and sustainable technologies and materials, along with holistic changes to systems of production effecting everything from energy, material and human resources, to finance, IT, planning and control.
Throughout our Virtual Conference, we will present solutions and best practice examples, discussing how Trelleborg and other renowned industry and research leaders tackle current and future manufacturing challenges!
