Lecture by Dr. Christian Liedtke on "The Truth about Industry 4.0"
KUKA invites interested adults to a lecture at the Augsburg corporate headquarters. Dr. Christian Liedtke from KUKA will talk about "Industry 4.0" - the next stage of the industrial revolution - which has been shaping industrial events for eight years now. The understanding of what lies behind this ranges from very individual definitions to nebulous ideas.
In his lecture, Dr. Liedtke explains the actual feasibility, clears up myths and explains what "Industry 4.0" really means. Where are the roots? What can really be achieved with it? But where are the limits? What are the short-, medium- and long-term perspectives in the field of digitization?
On Monday, November 18 at 6 p.m. the lecture „The Truth about Industry 4.0“ will take place at the KUKA Development and Technology Centre, Zugspitzstr. 140, 86165 Augsburg statt.
Visitor parking spaces are available in the parking building. Please note that all events are in German.
