The fifth annual Digitalising Manufacturing Conference is over and it didn’t disappoint. It was hosted by the MTC in Coventry on 4 & 5 November 2019 and we are pleased to bring you this summary because we were there too.

Getting Value from Data

The ATS UK team of experts presented SODA Labs which is an innovation division of ATS Global. It generates benefits utilising solutions that involve anything ranging from the Cloud, apps and big data, to additive manufacturing, robotics and supply chains. All these services help manufacturers to reduce costs, increase performance and scale globally.

The transformative effects of Industry 4.0 were discussed in detail along with the technologies that are powering it. The team also spoke about Hybrid Architectures, which will help companies embrace new technology without harming their current operations. They also covered Rapid Development, which enables new features to be delivered in days rather than months.
