Welding through the lens of Industry 4.0

In this episode of Stirring the Pot, we talk with Kemppi Managing Director David Green.
David is very familiar with global technology trends in welding, and Kemppi is also a key sponsor of our Future Forum 20/20 Vision conference being held next year.
We start with the 'so what?' of Welding 4.0 and why adoption by industry is pivotal if we're to remain competitive, improve quality and streamline productivity. There’s no escaping the gravitational pull of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. So, deciding what we do about the new machine era will be the single biggest influence on what our future success looks like.
This boils down to leaders shifting their mindset away from just dollars in the bank right now. Instead, allocating and protecting a pool of resources and investment solely focused on the future - while of course, also running business as usual!
