During productronica 2019, the I-Connect007 Editorial Team met with some of the industry's top executives, managers, and engineers. In this video interview, part of our productronica coverage, the I-Connect007 team speaks with Oren Manor, director of business development for Siemens, in the Siemens booth.
Oren introduces us to the in-booth production equipment that integrates factory automation, motion controls, and MES solutions. He points out that the recent effort to automate SMT lines is now expanding into the areas of final assembly, box build, and manual assembly as well. The conversation also touches on how Mentor’s portfolio syncs into Siemens’ product line that covers the entire manufacturing food chain.
The productronica show is one of the world’s leading trade fairs for electronics development and production. The event is held on alternating years, at the Messe München in Munich, Germany. The next productronica will be held November 16-19, 2021.
