A basic seminar on safety & security will take place the day before the congress (July 4). Here, beginners can familiarize themselves with the basics of safety technology before getting down to business on the following two days. In three parallel sessions, the speakers will address the individual topics of safety and security as well as the interplay between the two aspects from the perspective of the industrial and automotive application sectors and provide answers to all pressing questions. The lecture program will cover everything from the available hardware and software components, tools, aids and certification to the practical use of safe systems in production and in the automobile. Accordingly, the presentations will provide clearly structured information for developers of hardware and software components as well as for integrators and end users from the mechanical and plant engineering sector, for example.

The 'Industry' session, for example, will deal with the following issues and detailed aspects of secure automation:

  • The challenge of IT security - the perspective of machine and plant manufacturers
  • How security also prepares the environment for safety
  • You can't secure what you can't see. And now?
  • Linux as an operating system with regard to the increased security requirements
  • Industry 4.0 - from rigid to adaptive systems
  • How hazardous energies can be safely controlled
  • The implementation of safety functions based on ISO 13849
  • Safe detection of people in human-robot collaboration
  • Functional safety requirements for industrial automation product manufacturers

The full program and further information, including the participation fee, can be found on the forum's homepage. Registration at the early bird rate is possible until May 30.
