11. Smart Factory ConnAction conference
[industry 4.0 conference]
industry 4.0
Industry 4.0, digitization, automation.
They are the most frequently quoted expressions in the field of technology, but what do these terms mean in the practice of industrial companies? At the Smart Factory ConnAction conference, you can familiarize yourself first-hand with domestic manufacturing companies that are already at the forefront of the introduction and application of IT, human resources, and management tasks and processes related to Industry 4.0, and they can’t wait to share their experiences with you.
Factory visits, case studies, and interactive workshops
This year, we are also trying to provide inspiration for the introduction of Industry 4.0, and we will also speak frankly and openly about the difficulties and pitfalls.
With our Com-Forth Team we welcome all returning guests and new interested parties for the 11th time at one of the most defining professional events of Industry 4.0.
You can get a first-hand insight into Industry 4.0 solutions applied in practice from keyplayers in various industries. Presentations showcasing real experiences, round table discussions on exciting topics, and interactive workshops await you on site, and you can gain new experiences up close during factory visits.
We provide a unique opportunity for networking. You can get acquainted with notable speakers and a wide range of almost 200 professionals active in the industry. You can share your experiences and be inspired by each other’s stories. Among our exhibitors, you can meet numerous potential partners who can support your work and goals with added value. Interactivity is supported by the EventMobi application.
The Wednesday afternoon programme is dedicated to small group (12–15 people) professional workshops. We have selected a variety of topics this year again. Select the most relevant for you and sign in using the application. We are counting on your active participation.
The 10,000 m2 wellness area of the Spirit Hotel Thermal Spa will ensure that you can relax alongside the professional programmes. On Thursday, we will dedicate a special time to this, so that you have time to process all the information you will receive. And on Friday - true to tradition - we invite you to run together again this year!

The secret to implementing a successful industrial data collection and analysis solution lies in the small details. Using actual examples, we provide insights into the development process, from initial data collection needs to the development of new features, including artificial intelligence/machine learning solutions. It will be revealed what we as full-service hardware/software solution providers can offer during the implementation process and what is needed from the customer side for the project to be successful. The importance of scheduling, reliability and data security will be highlighted during the presentation.

How can we be sustainable where we produce and where we emit?
The Danish pumping station started its operations at a time when all of Europe was still suffering from the damage of war. Creativity and perseverance paid off. Today Grundfos is at the forefront of pump manufacturing. Its products can bring clean drinking water to hundreds of people in areas where there was no hope before.
The durability and timelessness of the product is truly unique in today's 'break and replace' world.
Since it works mostly with water, it's one of the pillars of its sustainability strategy. Its goals include reducing the amount of drinking water used in manufacturing by 50%, harnessing rainwater and creating a water cycle. By 2030, it aims to provide clean drinking water for 300 million people in poorer regions of the developing world.
It also places a strong emphasis on climate change-related activities such as reducing energy use and air pollutant emissions.
These are all very fine goals, but what happens on the small scale at the Székesfehérvár plant? What can we do to translate these grandiose goals into everyday life?
