Overview
The digital factory for everyone
Seminar and factory tour at Bosch
28. Januar 2025 - Stuttgart
Plug & Play instead of Plug & Pray
Digitalisation is the trend. 92% of all production companies expect it to improve their competitiveness. So it's no wonder that terms such as Industry 4.0 or the smart factory are at the top of management's wish list. However, disillusionment quickly sets in. This is because the road to the goal has usually been long and rocky. The networking of an established machine park alone is a difficult obstacle for many companies to overcome.
Bosch is sharing its more than ten years of experience in this field. What's more, the experts will be demonstrating Bosch tools that make connectivity on the ‘brownfield’ easily possible and will make it possible to experience their use live at the Bosch main plant in Stuttgart Feuerbach. Be there live!
Seminar fee: 750,00 Euro incl. catering & factory tour
