SUMMARY:The Drawbacks of Modern Machinery
DESCRIPTION:The live presentation of this event has already taken place. \nPlease view the PDF slides here or watch the video recording below:\n \nWebinar details\nIndustrial Automation was introduced mainly to improve manufacturing processes and product quality. But in many cases\, Industrial Automation is a burden and does not provide such improvements. \nIn order to construct a highly efficient system\, multiple aspects must be considered and given a high level of attention. Clear technical requirements\, well-defined performance targets\, and proper system integration are fundamental to successfully building a reliable automation system. Maintaining highly performing manufacturing assets requires structured maintenance strategies\, continuous monitoring\, and timely upgrades to prevent performance degradation and unexpected downtime. \nEqually important is the human aspect of Industrial Automation\, as skilled personnel\, proper training\, and strong collaboration between engineering and operations teams ultimately determine whether the system delivers its intended value. \n\nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards.\nA certificate of attendance will be provided to attendees who request one near the end of the live webinar session.\nPlease note: the time stated on this event is in UTC. You will need to convert this to your own time zone.\n\nKey takeaways from this webinar\n\nWhat are the requirements to successfully build an automation system.\nHow to maintain highly performing manufacturing asset.\nThe human aspect of Industrial Automation.\n\nRelated courses\nThis webinar/topic is multidisciplinary and can be found across the following schools of engineering. \n\nElectrical Engineering\nMechanical Engineering\nIndustrial Automation\, Instrumentation and Process Control\n\nAbout the presenter\n \nDr. Abdu Shaalan\, ECT Industrial Automation Program Leader \nAbdu is a PhD holder in the fields of Industrial Automation and Advanced Maintenance practices from the University of Sunderland. He is a research enthusiast and has held multiple research projects over the years\, including a research fellowship with the nursing school\, several KTP projects with local manufacturers\, and was recently awarded a Teaching Fellowship in AI in Education. Abdu’s research focus is on Industrial Automation and Advanced Maintenance practices in the advances of Industry 4.0 technologies. Teaching-wise\, Abdu held multiple program lead positions ranging from Undergraduate and Postgraduate levels. Currently a program leader for Undergraduate and Postgraduate Industrial Automation programs at ECT.
