"Digitalization: Top or Flop? Which Tools Really Help the Plastics Industry" is the title of the roundtable scheduled for October 15, 2024, at 4:00 p.m. at the Friedrichshafen Exhibition Center during Fakuma.
During the event, participants will discuss how far digitalisation has progressed in the industry and what potential remains untapped. It will also identify how digitalisation can contribute to solving the challenges facing the industry – efficiency, sustainability and the shortage of skilled workers. The discussion will also explore how to leverage relevant production data and the role of AI-based assessments in simulating and optimizing production processes.
Speakers at the roundtable include Prof. Michael Braungart, founder and scientific director of Braungart Epea, Alpla CEO Philipp Lehner, Technik Arburg Managing Director Guido Frohnhaus, Prof. Hans-Josef Endres from the Institute for Plastics Technology and Recycling at Leibniz University Hannover, and Prof. Thomas Seul from the University of Applied Sciences Schmalkalden.
