🚀 Showcasing our Digital Factory capabilities Recently, we had the pleasure of hosting our neighbours from Altrad Babcock, giving them a first-hand look at our cutting-edge Digital Factory capabilities. It was a fantastic opportunity to share insights and explore the future of manufacturing together. A special highlight of the day was our joint Altrad/NMIS intern, Josef Heidinger, who presented his outstanding work to the team. Josef introduced the Altrad team to new and upcoming technologies, showcasing the exciting innovations on the horizon. This visit marks the beginning of what we hope will be a long and fruitful collaboration. We're excited to see where our combined expertise will take us! 💡 Manufacturing Skills Academy at NMIS Kareema Hilton CEng MIMechE Graham Murray Ricky Addie #DigitalFactory #Innovation #Collaboration #Manufacturing #Technology #NMIS #AltradBabcock #FutureOfWork
