“The Integrated Assembly Solutions makes a decisive contribution to competitive production at the German and European location. With a high degree of automation in assembly and handling, we can counteract demographic change in the next decade. For this it is crucial that the industry deals more closely with the opportunities of digitization. The VDMA must create important framework conditions for successful implementation.
