ACI Connect attracts engineering leaders to launch event
ACI Connect, Australia’s new automation, control and instrumentation-focused conference and expo, launched in Melbourne last week, receiving very positive feedback from attendees.
Engineering leaders from around the country gathered to hear industry experts present on such hot topics as Industry 4.0, cyber security, the future of manufacturing, addressing the skills shortage and Ethernet in industry. Twenty-five leading vendors, including Siemens, Emerson, Weidmüller and Endress+Hauser displayed their latest products and solutions on the exhibition floor and two industry workshops on machine safety and instrumentation complemented the two streams of the main conference.
Attendees to the conference and exhibition included senior engineering staff from Bulla Dairy, Worley Parsons, Patties Foods, BP, Melbourne Water, ExxonMobil, Wood Group, Nestlé, Lycopodium, K L Ballantyne, Qenos, Orica and GlaxoSmithKline to name just a few. The event was supported by industry bodies Engineers Australia and the IICA (Institute of Instrumentation Control and Automation).
ACI Connect will move to Sydney in 2015, and will take place at Sydney Showground on 22-23 April.
