The event will start with a short seminar led by a Guest Speaker (TBC) and will be followed by a tour of the factory. During this visit, participants will get a close look at how factory automation works in practice, from how systems are designed to how they run on the production floor. As we walk through the workshops, participants will be able to follow the flow of the processes and talk with the team behind the equipment. Finally, the day will end with a time for discussion and networking, where guests can enjoy Belgian waffles, meatballs, and beers.
