Companies & Institutes that Exhibited at the Congress 2023
At the end of the congress on 22nd of June 2023 a so-called Technical Tour took place, which is open to a limited number of participants for a fee. During this guided excursion, a company located in the respective region is visited, which is characterized by its work with innovative technologies. The Technical Tour of 2023 was offered through the Industry 4.0 model plant “THE IMPULSE” of Siemens AG Amberg.
At the THE IMPULSE visitor center in Amberg, solutions are shown that can overcome major challenges facing industry, such as more flexible production with consistently high efficiency, ever shorter innovation cycles and avoidance of downtime. The aim is to achieve this while at the same time making production as sustainable as possible. THE IMPULSE is a place where challenges become opportunities and the future becomes everyday life. There you can feel the heartbeat of the future of automation.
