AIMET 2026: Artificial Intelligence for Industrial Performance

16 Jul 26Technord adventure, News

On September 30, 2026, Robert David will speak at AIMET 2026, the European conference on artificial intelligence applied to metallurgy, held in Mechelen at the Van der Valk Hotel.

Over the course of three days, AIMET will bring together researchers, industry representatives, and international experts to discuss the technologies that are transforming the metallurgical industry. Discussions will focus in particular on the optimization of production processes, industrial data infrastructure, the Industrial IoT, quality, safety, and environmental sustainability.

Although the event focuses on the metallurgy sector, the issues it addresses extend far beyond that sector. The use of production data, artificial intelligence, predictive analytics, and digital tools are now becoming strategic drivers for all manufacturing industries.

During his presentation, Robert David will share our insights on the digitization of industrial operations and how MES systems can transform data into powerful decision-making tools.

At Technord, we’ve noticed that companies are now looking to go beyond simply collecting data. They want to leverage the available information to improve their performance, enhance the quality of their products, and respond more quickly to market changes.

AIMET therefore provides an ideal setting for engaging with the stakeholders who are shaping the industry of tomorrow and for sharing practical approaches to digital transformation.

We are delighted to participate in this leading event and to contribute to the discussions that will shape future generations of smart factories.
