This workshop is free of charge.
Abstract
Photonics is a key enabling technology for modern industrial processes and intelligent manufacturing. By providing intelligence and interconnection, Photonics is enabling both in the development of innovative production processes and in the design of highly efficient and adaptive production systems. A field of application of Photonics for Industry 4.0 is, for example, laser processing, where the development of new optical sources is allowing the widespread diffusion of this technology in the manufacturing sector. Similarly, optical sensors in monitoring systems are useful in predictive diagnostics and in the internet of things, while optical systems play an important role in virtual/augmented reality applications in production environments.
The workshop targets European companies as end users of photonic technologies. It will bring together experts at European level in the field of photonics, laser technology, automatisation, mechanical processing and industrial technologies to discuss the opportunities for innovation that photonic technologies, such as high power lasers, optical sensors and data networks, can lead to production systems and mechanical processes and their applications in key regional, national and European manufacturing sectors.
It will provide a networking opportunity for industry and academic interests, end-users and suppliers.
