Augmented reveals the stories behind the new era of industrial operations, where technology will restore the agility of frontline workers. In episode 5 of the podcast (@AugmentedPod), the topic is: Plug-and-play Industrial Tech. Our guest is Etienne Lacroix, CEO & Founder, Vention.
In this conversation, we talk about the Consumerization of Industry, high-mix manufacturers, shorter product life cycle, and end-to-end approaches. Etienne shares best practices for industrial workflows with 10x speeds to design, automate, order, deploy, comments on the appification of manufacturing software platforms, the legoification library of modular parts and factory equipment, and how it ties into empowering agile manufacturing. We discuss remaining complexities and briefly touch on the future.

Trond's takeaway: Industrial tech is indeed becoming plug-and-play. We may be at the cusp of a lowcode and approaching a nocode environment, but that doesn't mean zero cognitive skills required, quite the contrary, at least if you want to shape the future development or lead the manufacturing process. Vention's Cloud-CAD makes use of engineering grade 3D in the web browser and is a big step forward. Many more exciting applications are to come, as we map out the use cases, get feedback from previously not sought-out parts of the shopfloor, and integrate those findings. Is a zero bottleneck future in the line of vision? Not now, but we are getting closer.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
