Industry 4.0 and IIoT: What It Means for the Calibrated and the Calibrators
As and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) continue to evolve, both the instruments being calibrated and the processes used to calibrate them are changing rapidly.
This shift brings new opportunities for efficiency, data-driven decision-making, and connected asset management, along with new challenges in maintaining standards, traceability, and compliance. Our guest speaker will explore what these changes mean for instrumentation professionals, technicians, and organizations building or modernizing their calibration programs.
Dinner: A traditional turkey dinner will be served, with a vegetarian option available. Please indicate your meal preference when registering.
