Join us in July for a deep dive into the topic of automotive maintenance with insights from industry experts on how to keep your production assets reliable and your plant processes efficient.

Sessions will highlight why inspections, testing and routine maintenance are essential to minimizing downtime and how to implement the latest predictive maintenance technologies to predict failures. Attendees will also explore real-world approaches to asset condition monitoring and learn how to organize and conduct energy ‘treasure hunts’ to identify low-cost efficiency improvements. Last, but not least, the workshop will feature hands-on activities and interactive demos showcasing the latest maintenance tools and emerging technologies.
