Whereas robots previously mainly performed dangerous, monotonous and physically demanding work, they are now increasingly working together with humans. During this edition, we provide insight into the future prospects of smart robotics & the human factor. How do we strengthen cooperation between humans and machines? What is the impact of robotisation on a company's sustainability and stability? And how do we train tomorrow's engineers? With practical examples from companies including Riwald Recycling (Almelo), Riwo (Oldenzaal) and Van Raam (Varsseveld), we will show the technological innovation power of Twente!
