讲座内容
LISMS is established to showcase some key technologies of Industry 4.0, as well as to demonstrate how New Zealand businesses benefit from implementing these technologies. The laboratory also facilitates interactions and collaborations between industry partners and researchers. We aim to focus on:
· Developing and showcasing Industry 4.0 technologies
· Encouraging collaborations between industry and researchers
· Showcasing and implementing the research works at local industries
The talk will present some case studies developed at the Laboratory for Industry 4.0 Smart Manufacturing Systems.
