Description:
Against the backdrop of the current economic situation and increased competition worldwide, the use of innovative industrial automation technological solutions can produce a structural transformation in favour of sustainable production based on the concepts of environmental, social and sustainability. The demand for high quality standards in highly complex production processes, together with the growing variability and complexity of the product, requires new industrial automation systems that are no longer rigid but increasingly based on the concept of modularization, flexibility, adaptability, and standardization.
The talk will make a brief description of COMAU and its challenge to redesign the systems so that they can reach world class productivity levels.
