Join Daryl L. Peterson, Managing Director of the Engineering Innovation Lab at the University of Notre Dame. This session will explore the challenges of implementing automation on the shop floor, particularly when transitioning processes that have traditionally been applied in ad-hoc laboratory settings. It will examine the difficulties of achieving consistent performance under defined conditions and schedules, and the need for greater predictability in outcomes. The discussion will also cover practical strategies and actions that can help reduce risk, operate effectively within tight parameters, and minimize undesirable results.
