Digitalization and AI in plastics processing

Digitalization and AI in plastics processing

After the success of the first symposium in 2022, "Digitization and AI in Plastics Processing" is going into the second round.

Once again, we want to provide an insight into current developments in the industry and highlight opportunities that digitization and AI offer for manufacturing companies in the plastics industry.

At this two-day event, you can expect a program of presentations on the topics of process data acquisition, data analysis and artificial intelligence. The program will be rounded off by workshops and practical demonstrations in our pilot plants.

Your digital access

We provide the entire conference documents via our digital platform Moodle. Look forward to your digital conference folder, business cards and presentations, which you can annotate and download! Please bring a digital device (laptop or tablet) or simply your smartphone! Wifi will be provided, of course.

You will receive all further information and access after your registration.

If you would like to have your conference folder in printed form incl. the presentations on a USB stick (plus 35 € to the conference ticket), please indicate this in the message field during your registration.
