With global aluminium demand projected to increase by almost 40 per cent by 2030, the aluminium sector will need to produce an additional 33.3 Mt to meet demand growth in all industrial sectors.
This will only be possible through the inception of streamlined technologies, digital manufacturing and sustainable solutions across the supply chain.
Originally launched in 2018, the Future Aluminium Forum has focused on the challenges of implementing digitalisation and technologies associated with Industry 4.0 such as Digital Twins, the Industrial Internet of Things, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning.
On May 10-12 2023, the Forum will return in a live format to Québec City, a region where the aluminium industry has existed for more than a century and is now seeing rapid change and collaboration between manufacturers, processors, suppliers and OEMs.
With a dynamic industrial cluster and several research centres occupying a special place at the heart of this aluminium sector, Québec City is perfectly positioned to play host to the next Forum and welcome discussions and presentations about what the future of aluminium production looks like.
Hear from experts on industry 4.0 and associated disruptive technologies.
The forum conference shares case studies and discusses how industry 4.0 can aid and optimise the aluminium manufacturing process through machine learning, robotics, automation and augmented reality across the value chain.
Learn and view the latest products from a range of international exhibitors.
With several international exhibitors in attendance, visit each exhibitor and view their latest products and innovation. Furthermore discover how they are integrating new technologies to aid their manufacturing.
Network with like-minded professionals from the Aluminium industry under one venue.
With over 150 senior level aluminium executives, CTOs and plant managers (but not limited to) from across the globe in attendance. Meet and discuss the impact of new technologies to the aluminium manufacturing process. Also take advantage of our dedicated networking zones inside the venue and enjoy privacy from the main event.
Visit the Alcoa smelter site
This year, we are offering our attendees the chance to participate in a site visit to the Alcoa smelter. Therefore join us at Quebec on May and not only hear but see first hand the progression of industry 4.0 in real time.
The Future Aluminium Forum is the ideal event for senior level Aluminium executives, chief technology officers and specialists with an interest in the application of new technologies to the aluminium manufacturing process.
However our event is not only limited to senior level executives. If you work within the Aluminium industry and have high interest in Industry 4.0 and want to learn more about it, then this is the event for you aswell!
