19-21th June 2019, Spirit Hotel Sárvár*****
5th Smart Factory ConnAction Conference
[industry 4.0 conference]
INDUSTRY 4.0
Smart Factory ConnAction is the 5th instalment of an annual industry 4.0 conference series. This year’s speakers primarily represent the automotive industry – managers and experts of well-known Hungarian companies will introduce their results in the field of industry 4.0. The presentations will not define industry 4.0 or show its potential as these topics were covered in depth in previous years. Speakers representing clients as well as Hungarian and multinational suppliers will concentrate on case studies providing actual, practice oriented information to foster the implementation of industry 4.0.
At the ConnAction conferences we break with the tradition that we participate in every presentation, regardless of it being of interest to us or not, or even if it is irrelevant to us. The Smart Factory Coordinator application enables you to plan your programme two weeks before the event – select the presentations and other events you wish to take part in (for example workshops, factory visits), and book a meeting with exhibitors and other representatives so that you can discuss what you’ve experienced with them regarding industry challenges. The conference will have 150–200 attendees, most of whom face the same problems that you face. The Smart Factory Coordinator application helps you book a meeting with any of the participants in advance of the event. Do not miss this opportunity!
The Smart Factory ConnAction Conference has a tradition of visiting an exceptional, innovative manufacturer to gain inspiration for your industry 4.0 implementation. In 2016 participants visited the Kecskemét plant of Mercedes, in 2017 the Győr plant of Audi and in 2018 the Óbuda plant of Festo. This year we will visit the Opel plant of Szentgotthárd and the Lövő plant of Roto Elzett Certa to kickoff the conference on Wednesday, 19 June, in the morning. Registered participants can sign up for the factory visit in the Smart Factory Coordinator application.
The 10 thousand m2 wellness facility of Spirit Hotel Thermal Spa will ensure that participants can relax after conference programmes. Thursday will include an allocated time slot for this purpose so that participants can process all the new information. On the second morning of the conference there will be a run together for industry 4.0. Our secret hope is that this will be the start of a tradition.

Schedule
Smart Factory ConnAction is an authentic industry 4.0 conference. We will go beyond simply defining industry 4.0. Automotive industry parts manufacturers, representatives of other manufacturing companies, and the most important solution suppliers will present already implemented solutions and case studies while panel discussions will focus on sharing actual experience, as this is the type of information that participants can use directly in their daily activities.
Key topics:
10:00
Participants of the visit will have an opportunity to see the automated production lines that manufacture the 3 main engine components – block, main shaft and cylinder head. The visit will also include the production lines where workers currently assemble PSA “Flex” engines. Production will switch to “EB” engines from the end of this year. A short live presentation on “data management for the industry” is also included in the visit.
10:00
Roto is a well-known brand of window and door technology. Our visit to Roto Elzett Certa Kft will enable participants to see the largest manufacturing plant of the group. The program will start with a short presentation giving an overview of the Industry 4.0 model plant case study (MES, small batch production, predictive maintenance and so on). This will be followed by a visit to the factory floor to see these solutions in practice, including the processes of modern door and window mounting manufacturing from pressing and tool maintenance to assembly and packing.
10:00
Herendi Porcelánmanufaktúra Zrt. was founded in 1826 and today it is among the top china manufacturing companies of the world. Its traditional, typically Hungarian products of unique style are available the world over. Visitors will have the opportunity to have a glimpse of manufactory production and will hear about the challenges this special production type faces in the 21st century, such as digitalization, virtual reality, technical progress and speed. Company representatives will tell us about their solutions to merge tradition with innovation. They will explain how they integrate the technical inventions of the 21st century with their strongest value that is manufactory production. We will also see how a modern, 21st century “Manufactory 4.0” operation is introduced in the plant.

The first step to a successful automatization of office processes using software bots is to be able to identify best-suited eligible processes. CloudStorm's interactive workshop introduces the considerations and methods that can help this decision.
15:00
When a manufacturing company sets foot on the path of Industry 4.0 it must face numerous decision points where not only the answers are not clear, but it is hard to formulate the actual questions or problems. In the first part of the workshop we will take an inventory of these decision considerations together to reveal the different aspect, possibly adding new ones to the list. The second part of the workshop will involve a group exercise to review the pros and cons of the most important aspects. The brainstorming of the second part will be supported by the spirit of a choice of local palinka specialties.
