The first International Conference on NDE 4.0 will be held virtually 14–15 and 20–21 April 2021. The conference is organized by the German Society for NDT (DGZfP) and the International Committee on NDT (ICNDT).
Industry 4.0 is the ongoing fourth industrial revolution that leads to improved production, design, and maintenance by analyzing data provided by the industrial Internet of Things. Measures such as artificial intelligence, big data processing, and augmented reality allow for the evaluation and visualization of the data.
This will lead to big changes in NDE. First, Industry 4.0 emerging technologies can be used to enhance NDE technologies and data processing. Second, a statistical analysis of NDE data provides insight into reliability, inspection performance, training status, consistency, and value of the inspections. Finally, NDE is the ideal data source for Industry 4.0.
This conference is devoted to promoting a broad exchange on all subjects regarding NDE 4.0. It provides a unique opportunity for users, scientists, equipment suppliers, and all who are interested to discuss the following:
- Industry 4.0 for NDE
- NDE for Industry 4.0
- Human Considerations
Keynote presentations by experts from around the globe have been prerecorded and will be streamed twice to accommodate different time zones. In addition, a live panel discussion will take place at 13:00 UTC each day. Questions that arise during the individual presentations will be answered during the panel discussion.
To attend, register on the conference website.
The call for abstracts for next year’s conference is available online. Plan now to attend the conference in Munich 26–28 April 2022
