Cedar Bay – Paperless Manufacturing with IFS, streamlining the recording of information from the Shop floor

In this session, Roger and Jay described how they have delivered real business improvements with a series of case studies. They discussed concepts, explained how they relate to Industry 4.0 and demonstrated examples of how they have carried out specific improvements with removing paper from quality processes, factory documentation, scales and dispensing systems.

Members will be able to see a copy of this presentation, in the next few days, (and many others) in our Archived Events pages.

Many thanks to Roger and Jay and the Cedar Bay team for supporting the IFS UK&I User Group Summer Conference!
