Presented through a combined effort of NFPA and the Fluid Power Industrial Consortium (FPIC) of the Milwaukee School of Engineering, the virtual March NFPA/FPIC Quarterly Conference provided a targeted program to a sizeable audience. The event featured three industry speakers who used their first-hand expertise to discuss advanced technologies that are improving pneumatic systems efficiency. The event was hosted via Remo, a highly effective virtual platform that simulated a traditional in-person networking experience for attendees.
The program included the following presentations:
- “Using Compressed Air Challenge’s Systems Approach to Save Energy and Money in Pneumatic Systems”
Joe Ghislain | Principal, Ghislain Operational Efficiency (GOE) LLC & Compressed Air Challenge Instructor - “The Role of Intelligent Connected Devices in Improving Pneumatic Systems Efficiency Throughout a Machine’s Life Cycle”
