This AMS livestream will explore how manufacturers are using digital tools to optimise current production lines for flexibility and futureproof planned facilities, including layout optimisation, flexible automation and planning for flexibility.
Flexible production is essential for responding to market demand, for example how automotive manufacturers can adapt to the right mix of ICE, EV and hybrid production, or adapt to new technology and options, whilst maintaining operational agility. This AMS livestream will explore how manufacturers are using digital tools to optimise current production lines for flexibility and futureproof planned facilities, including layout optimisation, flexible automation and planning for flexibility.
AMS editors, manufacturing leaders and experts will also examine how AI enhanced automation can support mixed-model manufacturing, minimise downtime, and adapt to evolving customer needs.
Key focus areas:
- Optimising flexibility in manufacturing operations through data gathering
- Strategies for rapid reconfiguration of production lines
- Scaling multi-platform/powertrain production with flexible processes
- Case studies from leading OEMs and suppliers
- Developing and integrating flexible automation processes
