Production Process Automation

Where innovation meets the production floor

How are you already using AI, digitalization, and data in your production process today? During Production Process Automation (PPA), you will discover this in practice.

On February 3, professionals from the manufacturing and process industries will gather for a day full of knowledge, practical case studies, and new connections. Current themes such as artificial intelligence, digitalization, data collection & analytics, and industrial networks will take center stage.

See technology in practice

What really works on the production floor? End users share their experiences and show how they apply technology in their own production environments. Case studies provide concrete insights that you can immediately apply within your own organization.

Whether you work on production automation, process automation, or technological innovation: PPA offers in-depth knowledge that aligns with today's challenges.

Meet the people behind the technology

Engage in dialogue with technical management, engineers, innovators, technology providers, and other industrial end-users. Share experiences, discover new solutions, and make connections that go beyond a single event.

PPA connects innovation with practice. For today and tomorrow.
