“Beyond Safety. Forum@SICK” continues its journey in 2025 - next stop: “Dynamic and Reconfigurable Manufacturing” 

How can we handle the increasing complexity of dynamically evolving systems while ensuring an appropriate level of safety? What challenges do reconfigurable robots and machines pose on the shop floor, and how do we manage emerging risks while enabling higher productivity and flexibility?

These and similar questions will guide us through the fourth iteration of our event.
We invite end-users, industry experts, researchers, and safety innovators to join our journey.

During this one-day event, focus talks by distinguished speakers will highlight challenges and opportunities, stimulating discussion and exchange. 
We believe that the path towards dynamic and reconfigurable manufacturing systems will go beyond the well-known, and this is why we emphasize the importance of exchange in this endeavor.

Join us on December 11, 2025 – either at the SIA Academy in Buchholz, near Freiburg, or virtually. 
Agenda will follow soon
