DESCRIPTION:The upcoming session on “Robotic Process Automation in Manufa
 cturing”\, organized by Y2NPro 2025 under IEEE Young Professionals Sri L
 anka\, will be held on the 10th of May 2025\, from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM IST\
 , via Zoom. As a continuation of the Robotics in Industry 4.0: Automation 
 and Smart Manufacturing Workshop Series\, this session will delve into the
  integration of Robotic Process Automation (RPA) within manufacturing envi
 ronments and its growing role in accelerating digital transformation in In
 dustry 4.0.\n\nThe session will be conducted by Dr. Achala Pallegedara\, a
  Senior Lecturer at the Faculty of Engineering\, University of Peradeniya\
 , with expertise in Robotics\, AI\, Mechatronics\, and Data Science. Drawi
 ng from his diverse academic and industry experience\, Dr. Pallegedara wil
 l explore how RPA is being leveraged to automate repetitive\, rule-based t
 asks across the manufacturing value chain—boosting productivity\, reduci
 ng errors\, and enabling human workers to focus on higher-value activities
 .\n\nParticipants can expect to gain a deep understanding of how software 
 bots and intelligent automation are streamlining operations such as invent
 ory management\, production scheduling\, quality inspection\, and supply c
 hain coordination. The session will also highlight the synergy between RPA
  and emerging technologies like IoT\, AI\, and edge computing\, showcasing
  practical applications and implementation challenges in real-world manufa
 cturing scenarios.\n\nAn interactive Q&A session will follow the presentat
 ion\, providing attendees with the opportunity to engage directly with the
  speaker and clarify concepts related to automation strategies and technol
 ogy adoption in industrial settings.\n\nOrganized and hosted by IEEE YP Sr
 i Lanka\, this session promises to offer valuable insights for professiona
 ls and students interested in the future of smart manufacturing and the pi
 votal role of automation in shaping Industry 4.0.\n\nSpeaker(s): \, Dr Ach
 ala Pallegedara\n\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/484618
