Another paper will address spare parts, supply chains and industrial localization. Sessions on policy, legislation and human capital are expected to discuss a national framework for smart manufacturing, codes, industrial localization and engineers’ capabilities. These are topics listed for discussion at the conference, not an announcement of a new national policy or industrial investment.","The programme also includes integrating digital twins and artificial intelligence into smart manufacturing systems, as well as advanced industrial data engineering and digital-twin security in smart factories. Digital twins are data-linked representations of physical assets; their usefulness depends on data quality, model updates, cybersecurity and integration into work processes.

Outcomes depend on material qualification, production speed, certification, safety standards and total cost.
