Industry Week Warsaw 2024: trade fair highlights from Adexin

Nov 22, 2024
6 min

We were brought to Warsaw between 5 and 7 November 2024 for one of the most prominent industrial events this year. If you think about manufacturing, lean management, managing your business processes, and integrating warehouse management on the go, then the best trends can be found at Industry Week Warsaw.

Adexin attended the latest edition of Industry Week, organized at PTAK Warsaw. We were pleased to explore the venue, which spanned two large halls connected by a 2-minute walk. The VIII edition of Industry Week Warsaw was hosted in Halls B and C of this incredible complex, the centerpiece of PTAK's exhibition buildings. As usual, we learned from industry experts and discovered that despite our business profile, which is strictly oriented on logistics and transportation, we share common needs in manufacturing, which is an essential part of the supply chain.

What are the top highlights from Industry Week Warsaw 2024?

Well, we always want to bring to light what is worth remembering. At first, when you come to Warsaw for such an event, you'll forget for a couple of minutes why you are here. The city view and spectrograms of buildings are amazing, and Poland has shifted its infrastructure over the years to high-quality buildings, roads, and highways. The last mentioned is highly important for logistics and transportation, as well as for the smooth flow of goods.

So, as you see, talking about the event will not be the only highlight. Coming back to the venue, here are numbers and important takeaways from Industry Week Warsaw:

  • Total visitors - 22,271

  • Domestic visitors - 21,468

  • International visitors - 809

  • Exhibitors - 483

  • Exhibition space - 58,000 sqm

Datafication of industry and the new manufacturing era are the main ideas of the event

There were two days of conferences at the PTAK Warsaw venue. Both days were brilliant and rich in the mindful sharing of knowledge and experiences.

The conferences, held alongside Warsaw Industry Week, focused on the latest trends in industrial operations, with the main topic centered around datafication. Datafication is converting various aspects of life into digital data for those unfamiliar with it. It is essential for analysis and informed decision-making. It transforms previously invisible processes or activities into quantifiable data that can be monitored, tracked, analyzed, and optimized.

Massive amounts of data from manufacturing plants and their surroundings serve as raw materials for innovation. Regardless of the industry, we need intelligent technologies that create new value and business advantages. Honestly, nothing is more beneficial to us than data and the decisions made based on information derived from various sources.

What were the key topics:

  • Predictive maintenance and quality assurance. Watching the presentation featured technology, we learned how to leverage data to predict equipment failures and ensure product quality.

  • Intelligent intralogistics. Anyone at the venue could discover solutions for optimizing internal logistics processes. This is also quite interesting from our perspective, as we put a lot of attention on custom software development for the logistics industry.

  • Resilient supply chain management. We could explore strategies for building robust supply chains that can withstand disruptions.

  • Distributed manufacturing. Anyone involved in logistics must understand how to personalize products based on individual customer needs.

What are the benefits of Industry Week Warsaw 2024?

Suppose you want to ask why to attend such an event; it's worth focusing very first on the main role of any industrial event. So we get a bit closer to the point with that, and here are the points you can learn from:

  • Gain insights. Every time you visit the event, you learn from industry experts, researchers, and solution providers. There is always a wonderful opportunity to get to know leaders you hear about from other places and events.

  • Discover best practices. You have always had the chance to explore real-world examples of data-driven transformations. Some companies can prepare demos and amazing expositions for you.

  • Stay updated. The event offers a better understanding of the latest regulations and funding opportunities.

  • Keynote speakers and network. Last but not least, you can connect with like-minded professionals and build valuable relationships, which is personally one of the most important things you want to benefit from. I always think that people are the key because no solution can be so efficient without like-minded people nearby.

Adexin visiting trade show the Industry Week Warsaw 2024

As always, we aim to stay connected with the industry to better understand upcoming trends and the areas toward which it is shifting. We remain ahead in addressing the needs of many companies. What's most important for us is that Industry Week Warsaw also attracts visitors from both sides of the supply chain, and we at Adexin excel in developing tailored solutions for supply chain needs. Simply put, this is the right place for us.

There is always a need for typical manufacturing plants to efficiently utilize warehouse space and comply with practices like FIFO, just-in-time delivery, or just-in-sequence operations. We assist them in integrating warehouse operations with production lines. For example, if a company has an MES system, we can build a custom warehouse management module for them and integrate it seamlessly. It is where our role begins, and it continues to meet their evolving needs.

So, as we said, the needs for warehouse and manufacturing overlap a lot. IT solutions for manufacturing and warehouses have revolutionized the way these industries operate. Here are some of the key solutions:  

Industrial IoT (IoT). Here, we talk about what connects machinery, sensors, and other devices to collect and analyze data for predictive maintenance. Based on this, companies can optimize production processes and improve overall efficiency.  

Manufacturing execution systems (MES). Manage and monitor production processes in real-time, ensuring quality control, tracking production progress, and optimizing resource utilization.  

Enterprise resource planning (ERP). ERP systems are very popular now, and they can integrate various business functions like finance, HR, and supply chain management. Businesses can now provide a comprehensive view of operations and facilitate decision-making.  

Product lifecycle management (PLM). PLM manages the entire lifecycle of a product, from design and development to manufacturing and maintenance. Its goal is to ensure consistency and efficiency.  

Computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM). These systems design and simulate products virtually. So you can optimize production processes and reduce costs.  

Robotics and automation. You need to automate repetitive tasks. So, by using robotic arms, you can improve accuracy and increase productivity.  

Warehouse management systems (WMS). A WMS system manages inventory and runs other tasks, such as tracking goods movement and optimizing storage and retrieval processes. Most companies don't have one, and they struggle with paperwork.

Voice-picking technology. Uses voice commands to guide workers in picking and packing orders, increasing accuracy and productivity. Voice-picking is often part of the WMS system.
