SUMMARY:CE Marking for Mechanical Engineering Seminar
DESCRIPTION:CE Marking is mandated by European Directives. UKCA marking is mandated by UK Statutory Instruments. \nMany products are covered by these directives and\, to be placed on the European and GB market\, must bear the ‘CE’ or ‘UKCA’ mark – it’s a legal requirement. \nWith Brexit completed it will still remain vitally important for companies to make sure that their product technical files and Declarations of Conformity are comprehensive\, up to date and clearly documented whether products are being sold to GB customers or to EU markets. \nThis seminar is based primarily on the Machinery Directive. It provides guidance on compliance and assists participants to determine the route that is most appropriate\, cost-effective and efficient for their product. For the majority of companies\, CE and UKCA marking is a self-certification process and involves an evaluation of the product or machine using risk assessments and relevant standards. \nThe course will be interactive and participative\, with opportunities for discussion. On completion\, participants should: \n\nHave gained an understanding of the statutory requirements involved.\nUnderstand technical requirements and interpret compliance standards.\nBe able to apply risk assessment techniques relevant to CE and UKCA marking.\nUnderstand the relevant marking process and identify the best route to compliance.\n\nThe seminar will be presented over 2 days as follows:- \nDay 1 17th November 2021\n09:30 Welcome & Introductions\n09:35 BREXIT\, CE\, UKCA & UKNI\n10:00 The Machinery Directive & PUWER\n10:45 Q&A & Break\n11:15 Essential Health & Safety Requirements\n11:45 Other Directives – EMC\, RoHS\, LVD\n12:15 Q&A \nDay 2 18th November 2021\n09:30 Welcome & Introductions\n09:35 Mechanical Standards and control systems\n10:30 Practical Risk Assessment\n11:00 Q&A & Break\n11:30 Technical File & DoC and SOPs\n12:15 Q&A and Close

SUMMARY:5G & Manufacturing | Productivity & Efficiency
DESCRIPTION:With businesses facing increasing customer demands and pressure on margins\, maximising uptime is crucial for profitability: downtime costs manufacturers in the UK three days of production per year on average.  “Fix it when it’s broken” or “regular maintenance every six months” are inefficient\, wasteful and impact profit margins. They are  not the best options in today’s fast-paced environment. \n5G will transform the sector\, enabling more efficient and effective ways of working. Globally\, the sector is experiencing ever shorter product life cycles; against a backdrop of rapid shifts in trends and increasing demand for personalisation\, consumers expect agility. In a time of shrinking margins\, maximising uptime is more important than ever to retain profitability. \nThis event\, from UK5G and The Manufacturer\, will be of interest to anyone concerned about the productivity and efficiency of their manufacturing operations in the future.

SUMMARY:5G in Transport & Logistics: 5G 101
DESCRIPTION:5G\, 25% better than 4G\, right? No. 5G can be marketed as the next generation of mobile tech but fundamental changes in the way 5G networks are built and work make it an extremely powerful digital transformation tool. On one level it’s fibre (gigabyte) connectivity delivered wirelessly\, great for the Enhanced Mobile Broadband experience now being rolled out by the Public Networks. \nDig deeper and the flexibility\, power and control 5G brings to managing data make it an eminently deployable means to increase productivity\, reduce waste and contribute to the bottom line. \nThis session is a (mostly) non-technical look at 5G. Where it differs from what’s come before\, the capabilities it unlocks\, the role of Public and Private Networks. It will be of interest to anyone wanting to know how 5G can be applied in Transport & Logistics. \nKTN is a delivery partner for UK5G\nUK5G is the national innovation network dedicated to the promotion of research\, collaboration and the industrial application of 5G in the UK. Its mission is to ensure that the UK is at the forefront of global 5G development. KTN is a delivery partner for UK5G.

SUMMARY:Constructive Conversations: Regenerative
DESCRIPTION:Engineers Without Borders UK presents the Constructive Conversations series. A space to discuss\, challenge\, and listen to some of the most pressing issues that must be interrogated to put global responsibility at the heart of engineering. \nDuring this session\, EWBUK explore one of the principles of globally responsible engineering: Regenerative. To actively restore and regenerate ecological systems\, rather than just reducing impact. \nThis event will feature a panel discussion\, with speakers from all areas of engineering and beyond who can provide their insight. They will then facilitate an interactive discussion to allow attendees to explore how they can put the principle into action. \nThe session will be facilitated by Engineers Without Borders UK Change Maker and incoming Executive Director of KDI\, Joe Milligan. The panellists he will be joined by include: \nOlivia Sweeney\, an environmentalist and one of Bristol’s Black and Green Ambassadors\, a project that explores the intersection of climate and racial justice by connecting and celebrating diverse community action for the environment. \nDiego Almendrades\, is an engineer and social entrepreneur with a passion for holistic management and ecosystem restoration in the Dry Forest of Peru. \nDan Smith\, is a sustainability professional with over a decade of international experience. He is currently leading the development of a new digital venture for environmental planning and permitting in the European offshore wind sector.
