Innovative solutions for predictive maintenance and performance optimization in industry


Program

Laat je verrassen op 25 maart 2014 in de workshop Innovative solutions for predictive maintenance and performance optimization in industry.

Key note speaker Herman Baets, president van de  European Federation of National Maintenance Societies, werpt met ‘Operations strategy leads to an optimized maintenance support’  een blik op de toekomst. Negen toponderzoekers van FMTC, KU Leuven en VUB stellen de strategie, de opportuniteiten van de Overall Equipment Efficiency (OEE), de methoden en tools voor.  Projectleider Andrei Bartic, FMTC,  sluit de workshop af met ‘From predictive maintenance to predictive manufacturing – the Big Data challenge for industry’.
