This year the workshop will be organized around 4 mains topics:
- Challenges in our diverse Facilities
o What is new?
- Automation, Mechatronic control and Robotic
o How things are changing?
o What have you done or are you developing?
o How much customization are you doing to integrate industrial mechatronics into your application?
o Cost-Benefit analysis of automation: defining thresholds for automation versus manual interventions. where to Set the Threshold? Practical considerations and best practices from existing facilities.
- Maintenance: preventive, corrective, predictive
o What is your strategy?
o Condition monitoring of actuators and transducers
o Predictive maintenance for critical motion components
