At the Chinaplas 2017, a Freeformer demonstrates the industrial additive manufacturing of a spare part from PC for the aerospace industry.
The second day of the 2nd Industry 4.0 Conference is themed ‘Electronics and Electrical 4.0.’ Representatives from Wittmann Battenfeld and Arburg will give presentations on smart manufacturing technology and 4.0 solutions for the electronics and electrical industries. Anston Tan, principal of the German Training Centre for Injection Moulding, will deliver a speech on ‘Smart People, Smart Manufacturing’. A panel discussion on ‘Efficient Individualisation of Mass Produced Goods’ will also be held. In addition, a seminar on applications of plastics in electronics and electrical industries will be held for experts to discuss ways to facilitate the development of consumer electronics and application areas.
At the same time an event focusing on ‘Design x Innovation’, sponsored by BASF, will showcase inflation free tyres, a racing-focused concept car, stylish children's smart toys and hybrid electronic equipment. It will inspire visitors on how plastics can optimise product design, structural and functional design in a variety of industries, including automotive, building and construction, leisure and lifestyle, and how to integrate the concept of CMF into electronics and electrical industries.
