As in previous years, Eplan invites you to the Eplan Forum on 23 and 24 September, which is once again organized as a hybrid event. The international event is an industry get-together with a focus on digitalization and automation in engineering. Renowned companies from Europe will share their best practices.
Visitors can be inspired by best-practice presentations and discuss with each other – live on site in Cologne or online worldwide. The two-day event will focus on practical strategies for a maximum degree of automation and data consistency in engineering and order processing. Topics such as AI, digital machine cabling, integration of Eplan into the ERP and PLM environment and the digital twin will illustrate the potential. Standardization and automated processes in engineering are key success factors.
“Everything is on the move in automated engineering. AI is moving more and more into engineering, and we are working intensively on these topics, especially AI-controlled industrial automation,” says Haluk Menderes, Managing Director of Eplan, who will present Eplan’s AI strategy, innovations in the portfolio and the international positioning of the global solution provider. The keynote speech at this year’s event will be given by Microsoft Germany: Stefan Keuser, Industry Advisor worldwide Manufacturing, Microsoft, will give visitors an insight into how Microsoft is taking engineering to a new level with the help of AI, cloud and co-innovation.
