The webinar will cover the enabling of 4th generation manufacturing and provision of end-to-end and component-level solutions for machine builders and robot manufacturers.
Delegates joining the webinar will learn more about:
- The move away from PLC-centric devices that limit the scope for machine-to-machine (M2M) communication and remote access.
- The need for increased use of sensors at every step in the manufacturing process to drive the communication of raw data and provide feedback to the control systems.
- How the next development phase will make more use of distributed control systems enabling each PLC within the network to coexist and communicate in real-time; with integrated security and safety, and distributed control systems, to improve efficiency and reduce response times.
- The challenges of connected devices which are smarter than ever and more easily accessible – how to utilise them to optimise productivity, safety, and efficiency.
The webinar, titled How Will Industry 4.0 and IIoT Change Manufacturing?,will take place on Wednesday 17 February, 2021, 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm GMT, Location: On24
