Using Industry 4.0 Technology for More Efficient Package Printing Operations

Package printers and converters looking for the Holy Grail to more efficient operations can tap into insights on leveraging Industry 4.0 technologies to build better, faster and smarter operations by attending a Packaging Impressions’ webinar on Wednesday, April 20, 2022. The webinar, which airs at 11 a.m. Eastern, on April 20, will explore how to take theoretical concepts and apply them to real-world operations, including how package converters and printers can deploy automation services across an entire enterprise, so investments in automation deliver real value.

Conor O’Neill, an automation and inspection industry expert with decades of experience, will show package printing and converting leaders how they can intelligently exploit Industry 4.0 technologies, such as automation, web performance monitoring, proactive maintenance, and vision inspection, in organizations of all sizes. Noting the need, especially among package printers and converters that recently were part of M&A activity or those converters and printers who cooperate with their peers as contract sites, for optimizing operations across manufacturing plants, O’Neill, now business development manager for Maxcess Vision Systems, will look at how packaging and converters leaders can better integrate disparate systems at multiple locations. O’Neill will also tackle how package printing and converting leaders can deploy Industry 4.0 technologies on multiple sites across national borders — ensuring entire organizations run better, faster and smarter. 

Converters and printers attending the event will also gain insights on how to deploy smart converting solutions in conjunction with tried-and-true quality control and optimization tools such as Pareto charts. Conversely, O’Neill will explore how automation and inspection tools, such as event recording, offer opportunities for old-fashioned review and analysis. 

Package printers and converters looking to use materials more effectively will also want to hear O’Neill’s insights on how to use data to improve yields while processing more material per shift. 

There will also be a discussion of how to future proof your package printing and converting operations to ensure that printers of all sizes can not only employ cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence today but also ensure that their operations can tap into the power of future AI developments.
