Faster, smarter, better, more: the effect of digitalization and data in modern manufacturing
Is it possible to increase company‘s production capacity by more than 15 percent in relatively short time and without enormous investment in modernization of manufacturing equipment? In the meantime, increasing energy efficiency and even employee engagement? Certainly, yes! We will talk about this in our presentation and will invite you to discover the importance and effectiveness of modern digital solutions in manufacturing.
Pack Klaipėda – How we survived the crisis
The biggest crises happen when production companies have a lot of orders, production is overloaded, and a key person in the company, who manages all the production, decides to leave. A new person has to start practically everything from the beginning: to understand the existing procedures and processes, solve the problems that arise as well as to overcome the challenges related to a large number of orders. In this report, we will overview how UAB “Pack Klaipėda” managed such a situation with the help of production management system “GKProact”. Instead of hiccups when the new production manager starts managing production, the company rises to a new level of productivity.

Five insights for successful digitalization of manufacturing
Digitization, digitalization, and digital transformation are three similar sounding, but fundamentally different terms that are on the agenda of modern company managers.
Let’s discuss on how to turn the digitization of production processes and the implementation of IT tools into the digital transformation of the entire company and its cultural and qualitative change, in order to adapt to rapid changes in the business environment and new crises.
AI control systems: management of unplanned changes in production processes
Quality risk management in the industrial sector is a challenging task. It isn’t easy to control close to an infinite set of parameters influencing production quality. AI is being used to find new ways to solve this problem. Worth mentioning that AI is used primarily to identify losses already undergone, track product defects or identify local quality problems. However, AI can help address the importance of predicting or identifying problems at an early stage before production losses occur. The presentation addresses this significant and universal problem for all businesses and demonstrates the solution by applying AI-empowered quality risk management to industrial production.

Europe’s competitive edge: advanced manufacturing at the heart of the EU’s industrial transformation
The EU’s ambitious green and digital objectives are heavily dependent on a shift to Industry 4.0 and advanced manufacturing technologies. The current geopolitical context and the resulting energy crisis make this transition even more pressing – and also more difficult. Ensuring that new EU rules relating to supply chains and corporate sustainability are “fit for purpose” will be critical. It is time to roll out an ambitious roadmap for accelerating the uptake of advanced manufacturing technologies across different sectors and industrial ecosystems, rapidly and at scale.
