You can look forward to exciting tandem presentations from Kanadevia Inova with Zühlke Engineering, UNTHA Shredding Technology with elunic, AMAG Austria Metall AG with ACP CUBIDO and Autonoma Technologies with Danube Dynamics. You can also look forward to a presentation by the KEBA Group and a detailed introduction to the use of industrial AI at KEBA. The event will be rounded off with an exclusive factory tour.

Our host KEBA is an internationally active technology company with headquarters in Linz and 28 international subsidiaries in 16 countries with over 2,000 employees. Founded in 1968, the group of companies is active in three business areas with a large and highly digitized product portfolio: Industrial Automation, Handover Automation and Energy Automation. KEBA's AI expertise was further strengthened in April 2025 when the company acquired the Linz-based IT specialist 7LYTIX and integrated it into its group structure.

This practical day will be held for VDMA members and is free of charge for them. The number of participants is limited and a maximum of two people per company can register.
