Welcome to the podcast and Plantvision at Scanautomatic/ProcessTeknik 2024

We are up and running! Marcus Rickardsson and Robert Velén give an introduction to the fairs in general, inform about what's happening at the Plantvision stand and tell us a bit more about the upcoming podcast episodes.

09.15 - 09.45

The value of simulation in automation

How can installers and operators benefit from simulating real production? What are the common types of simulation and what value do they bring to the installation and management of plants with automation systems? Marcus Rickardsson, Josef Forsman and Andreas Eriksson, together with industry colleagues, clarify and provide practical examples.

09.45 - 10.15

Skills shortages and safety in a digitalized industry

Andreas Eriksson and Sandra Mattsson, senior researchers from RISE, talk about how an increasingly digitized industry creates fantastic opportunities, but also challenges. Not least when it comes to skills shortages and staff safety.

10.15 - 10.45

AI for the climate

AI technology is advancing at a rapid pace, helping humans with a wide range of tasks. And surely AI can also help the climate? Listen in as Marcus Rickardsson, together with Olof Mogren, senior researcher from RISE, discusses how AI can help reduce the impact on climate and the environment.

10.45 - 11.30

Are mobile devices the present or future for maintenance workers?

Do you use mobile devices (tablets or mobiles) in your daily work to manage your facility? Josef Forsman and Andreas Eriksson talk broadly about how this could be our new reality. When might it be time to replace old ways of working, filled with time-consuming tasks, with a modern mobile device? Is it perhaps time to start looking into this now?

12.15 - 13.00

Open time (get in touch if you want to participate in the podcast)

Come and talk to us at stand A03:31 if you have an idea for a podcast episode.

13.00 - 13.45

Waste streams - from waste to valuable resource

Lars Birging, CEO of ZIGRID, and Christian Johansson, discuss the expected increase in electric power, which should be produced with low climate impact, while globally we only use about 30% of the energy produced, which means that a large proportion is lost. But there are solutions by reusing!

13.45 - 14.30

Configurable security has never been easier!

Listen in as Marcus Rickardsson and Axel Bauer Siby, Safety Expert Phoenix Contact, discuss one of the requirements of modern automation: a flexible and cost-effective solution for safety circuits. Opportunities when everything is not fully specified from the start, and late changes with major consequences want to be avoided.

14.30 - 15.15

The future of green steel, how does it work?

In this episode, Josef Forsman and Tanja Illic, CCO at GreenIron, discuss the possibilities of turning waste from the metals and mining industry into valuable raw materials and dramatically reducing CO2 emissions. Together they talk about the future of green steel production with a CO2-free value chain - all the way from ore mining to metal production.

15.15 - 16.00

Smart food production: pioneering processes for a sustainable future

Christian Johnsson and Frederic Prothon, expert in plant-based innovation and PhD in food technology, discuss the challenges facing the food industry and the new technologies that could change the future of food production - not least in relation to the environment and sustainability.

16.00 - 16.45
