EMM 2009 - Mechatronics for Vehicles and Production
For the past 6 years, European Mechatronics Meetings have brought together the leading players from industry and research. This is the best way to exchange information on new market needs and relevant mechatronics technologies.
EMM 2009, 7th edition, will focus on mechatronics in the automotive industry (Cars, Trucks, Construction Equipments, agricultural machinery, Railroad and related manufacturing systems and industrial components).
When: June 24 & 25, 2009
Where: Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris, France
Overview and objectives
Mechatronics has been defined as “approach aiming at the synergistic integration of mechanics, electronics, control theory, and computer science within the product design and manufacturing, in order to improve and/or optimize its functionality” (cf. NF E 01-010), reliability, compactness and cost.
Such a breakdown impacts:
• development tools,
• technologies,
• and management of development teams.
The conference intends to offer a forum of discussion between many people coming from different fields:
• the industrial field concerned by product development and manufacturing, including all actors in the supply chain,
• the industrial field of software tool editors, very much impacted by the mechatronics revolution,
• Academic laboratories and Institutes and Education entities.
This 7th edition of EMM will focus on the automotive industry (vehicles and production) but, as usual, best practices in other domains will be presented. The Automotive market is the one which offers great opportunities for mechatronics, and which is going drive it to a high degree of maturity.
As for previous editions, the transversal principle of EMM assures a 360 ° treatment which, beyond car industry, will cover the various areas of ground transportation and mechatronics applications on automotive production systems.
From mechatronic CAD to quality control, from sensors to mechatronic systems, from research organizations to purchasing strategies, the selected papers will offer a European benchmark, in a fast moving world.
• EMM congress will merge industry, SME’s and research around actual trends in mechatronics, in life cycle processes, key technologies, organisation and management, illustrated by examples and success stories.
• EMM Exhibition: At the same time, the exhibition space will allow visitors to carry out a real technological survey on the latest developments proposed regarding mechatronics products and services. More information
