Controlling the Uncontrollable – Revolutionizing Robotic Dispensing
Closer look at a challenge many manufacturers face every day: robotic adhesive dispensing—and why it has historically been so difficult to control.
Introduction to FANUC Integrated Dispense (FID), and how it fundamentally changes what’s possible in robotic dispense by addressing the root causes of inconsistency instead of just reacting to them.
This presentation will discuss the benefits of decentralized motor control technology in an industrial plant environment, and understanding features and motion control capabilities to decrease downtime and increase production.
From Downtime to Decisions: Real-World Use Cases for Connected Manufacturing
Explore practical manufacturing use cases where connected factory architectures are helping teams reduce downtime, improve production visibility, and turn plant-floor data into actionable decisions. Concept Reply will share real-world examples across OEE, traceability, maintenance, quality, and AI-assisted operations while walking through how manufacturers can apply similar patterns in their own facilities. Attendees will leave with a clear framework for identifying high-value use cases, understanding the enabling technologies, and defining next steps for piloting solutions at their locations.
From Dashboard Sprawl to Data Clarity: Rationalizing Manufacturing Analytics
Manufacturing organizations often struggle with duplicate dashboards, inconsistent KPIs, and siloed reporting across operations, quality, supply chain, and leadership teams. This session explores how a Power BI rationalization initiative improved collaboration, standardized reporting, and reduced analytics sprawl while leveraging modern governance practices and AI capabilities to accelerate insight generation and self-service analytics. Attendees will leave with practical strategies for building a more trusted and scalable analytics environment.
We will look at how automation can be used to help the technicians achieve production goals where the spatial awareness of the task at hand is needed, but full automation is not feasible.
A look back at a project, where location tracking systems were integrated into a PLC, and used in coordination with plant data to ensure that production techs were doing the correct task, in the correct place, at the correct time.
The Next Generation of Shopfloor Intelligence: A Vision Execution System for Every Cycle
Manufacturing often operates with limited visibility into the hidden inefficiencies that impact performance every day – until now. This session explores how Vision AI enables manufacturers to optimize cycle times, improve workforce execution, and unlock a new level of operational intelligence beyond the capabilities of traditional machine vision systems.
Maintenance Intelligence for Conveyors: How Mighty Lube Uses Agentic AI to Monitor, Predict, Validate, and Act
This session is for manufacturers who are tired of reacting to conveyor chain problems after they have already caused downtime. Mighty Lube will demonstrate how agentic AI can be applied to conveyor maintenance by combining lubrication expertise, monitoring data, predictive insights, and action-oriented workflows. Attendees will see a practical use case they can take back to their own facilities to improve uptime, reduce maintenance guesswork, and move from raw data to smarter decisions.
