Back by popular demand, our Make2Pack and Connect-and-Pack™ Workshop will be facilitated by industry and technology experts Dave Chappell and Dave Bauman. This year's Workshop offers in-depth, practical information for both packaging end-users and OEMs, and includes hands-on demonstrations of the technology being discussed, presented on a large screen for easy viewing. Class size will be limited to encourage personalized attention and optimum time for Q & A.

Workshop attendees will learn the ease of implementing packaging line functions (control, HMI, MES) when utilizing the OPW Connect-and-Pack™ concepts contained in the technical report approved by the ISA-88 Commitee in June, 2008, and the "soon to be released" Make2Pack concepts described by the ISA88 Part 5 standard.

Topics of discussion will include:

  • Benefits users achieve from Connect-and-Pack™
  • Benefits OEMs achieve from Connect-and-Pack™
  • What's in the ISA 88 Technical Report (PackML and PackTags)
  • What's in the ISA 88 Part 5 Standard (Make2Pack)
  • An example implementation of Make2Pack on a control platform
  • An example implementation of PackML and PackTags on a control platform
  • An example implementation of PackML and PackTags on a supervisory platform (HMI, MES)

This Workshop offers practical information from both the end-user and the OEM perspective and will include commentary from both an end-user and a technology provider about operations currently benefiting from implementation of Connect-and-Pack™ concepts and evolving modular automation concepts contained in the ISA standards. We encourage you to arrive a day early for the Packaging Automation Forum to attend this informative Workshop.

PLEASE NOTE: The Workshop is available for Packaging Automation Forum registered attendees only and requires an additional registration fee. Attendance is limited.
