with Dr Stefan D\u00f6rr-Laukien, Managing Director and Co-founder of NODE Robotics, Stuttgart<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The automation business has always been challenging. The technology and projects are demanding. Mobile robotics is playing an increasingly important role, but it places high demands on everyone involved.<\/p>\n

The variety of technical solutions is constantly increasing and project structures are quickly becoming unmanageable. On the other hand, the economic crisis demands savings and reliable technology.<\/p>\n

Together with Stefan D\u00f6rr-Laukien, co-founder of the software manufacturer NODE Robotics from Stuttgart, I would like to give an overview of the topic and open the floor for an open exchange about what matters today and what lies ahead tomorrow.<\/p>\n

What role can mobile robotics play in helping our manufacturing companies navigate the current situation? How much complexity in technology and project structure is reasonable in order to create modern, integrated and affordable automation?<\/p>\n

I look forward to the discussion!<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
