Rethinking Electronics for Next-Gen Machines for the Real World, Not the Lab
In smart machinery development, late redesigns rarely come out of nowhere. They are often the result of early electronics decisions that looked reasonable at the time, but later restrict compliance, production scalability, or long-term serviceability.
As machines become more connected, more software-driven, and more tightly regulated, electronics teams are expected to deliver increasingly complex platforms under tighter schedules. At the same time, these platforms must remain manufacturable, compliant, and supportable for 10–20 years. When development, compliance, and production considerations are handled in silos, the cost of misalignment typically shows up late, when changes are hardest and most expensive.
On Wednesday, March 4, EKTOS Group engineers will deliver a morning briefing titled:
Development of Next-Generation Smart Machinery: Optimized Development, Testing, and Production of Electronics
The briefing will look at how companies can reduce late-stage risk by aligning electronics architecture, compliance strategy, and production readiness early in the development process. Topics include
- building electronics platforms that deliver long-term value
- understanding why compliance issues still arise despite well-known standards, and
- assessing whether a design is genuinely production-ready or overly dependent on specific components or suppliers.
Participants will gain practical insights and real project examples from EKTOS’ engineers who work hands-on with long-lifecycle products across industrial automation, machinery, instrumentation, energy systems, connectivity, and other high-reliability domains.
