How digitalisation continues to grow manufacturing – Smart Factory Expo 2021

Digital technologies are revolutionising the manufacturing industry. Digitalisation is changing how products are designed, produced, used and maintained as well as transforming the operations, processes and, crucially, the energy footprint of factories and supply chains.

Two of our expert exhibitors attending this year’s Smart Factory Expo, Simon Keogh, General Manager Factory Automation at Siemens Digital Industries and Kate Wilshere, Chief Operations Officer at IFM Engage explain how digital adoption will continue to play its part in shaping the future of the industry, as long as manufacturers can implement and harness the endless possibilities it provides.

For the sixth year, Smart Factory Expo brings together all the technologies enabling the digital manufacturing revolution – creating a carefully-curated shop window for manufacturers at all stages of their digital journey. It is a showcase for the revolution in technology, process and thinking behind Industry 4.0.

Smart Factory Expo features nine content theatres and ten visitor zones, focused on different digital manufacturing opportunities and featuring world class presentations and exhibitors, alongside Innovation Alley – a dedicated start-up corridor brimming with entrepreneurial energy.

A full calendar of activity including solution theatres with free-to-attend presentations, demonstrations and networking spaces, all located within the exhibition hall, means visitors are able to research and purchase the latest technologies transforming manufacturing, network with peers and gain invaluable insights from industry leaders, all in one place.
