With a total of about 160 participants, both events were fully booked.
The events was designed to provide participants with practical information on how to use digital support to meet the current challenges in their production, as well as the needs of their customers. In addition, there were live demonstrations and best practice examples and also an opportunity to network with other users and with Arburg’s entire “Digital Solutions” team.Peter Kowalewski, Director of IT Digital Industrial Solutions, was delighted with the response: “These two events were attended by about 160 participants, all of whom were thoroughly impressed by the focused transfer of expertise and the in-depth networking”.
Exciting insights into Arburg’s MES and customer portal
The half-day event Smart Factory Information Day was designed by the Digital Solutions team at Arburg as an ’event with in-depth insights into digitalisation for greater transparency, flexibility and efficiency in production’. Among other things, the aim was to get to know and experience Arburg’s digital tools. These include the arburgXworld customer portal and the Arburg host computer system ALS, the company’s MES. This was also an opportunity to learn more about success stories that showcase the advantages of digitalisation. At the user meeting the following day, ALS users then obtained detailed information about the innovations and developments of the Arburg host computer system, the customer portal and the control assistants.
Practical presentations by users for users
On both days, this exclusive expertise transfer event took the form of presentations by Arburg specialists as well as ALS users. Lukas Krüger from Arburg’s Technical Sales department explained how digital assistants can make companies more efficient, while keynote speaker Tobias Herwig, Managing Director of fischer Consulting GmbH, shed light on this topic in his practical presentation entitled “Lean and Digital Processes for Competitiveness in Production”. Further practical insights were provided by Sembach, Novapax, H&K Müller, ZF Lifetec, Trelleborg and Presspart.
“These practical presentations by customers for customers were just as valuable as the opportunity to speak directly with development specialists from Arburg. The consistently positive feedback on our digital products and services once again underlined that we are among the pioneers in the industry when it comes to digitalisation”, said Benjamin Franz, Manager of Digital Solutions who was delighted with the success of these two events.
