Transforming the Factory - Part 2

The transformation of the factory is a two-step process. The first step takes place outside the four walls, as manufacturers decide where to set up shop to serve their customers in light of external pressures such as tariffs, political instability and access to supply. The second step is rethink technologies and processes to improve uptime, quality and throughput.

In the second of two episodes sponsored by automation specialists Norgren, Alix Partners’ Kandice Lord and Abhinav Agrawal discuss the latest NextGen technologies and simple strategies that are in reach of even small-to-mid-size manufacturers looking to transform their factories into digital, smart factories of the future.

This is a must episode for anyone looking for the technologies to take their factories to the next level. And, for more information on the factory of the future, be sure to visit Norgren, a respected leader in the fields of precise motion control and fluid technology, with customers across more than 50 countries in areas such as Factory Automation, Material Handling, Commercial Vehicles, Rail, Life Science, Energy, and Process Control.
