MTC to stage free automation event

1 min read

Robotics and automation experts at the Manufacturing Technology Centre (MTC) in Coventry are to hold a free event aimed at helping business leaders make the right decisions when it comes to automating their factories. The ‘Open Lab’ robotics and automation networking forum at the MTC on 18 September is designed for decision makers and end users who appreciate the need for robotics and automation, but are unsure of the best equipment to use, how to integrate it into their production lines, or how to measure the benefits.

End users, technology providers and suppliers are invited to the event, held under the auspices of the European-funded ROBOTT-NET project, of which the MTC is a partner. It is the fifth in a series of such events at the MTC.

Jeremy Hadall, chief engineer for intelligent automation at the MTC, says the forum will be a great opportunity to share successful case studies, and network with technology providers and engineers who have been on their own automation journey: "This is a networking event which will allow delegates to explore ground-breaking and innovative industrial robotics, and understand how they can benefit manufacturing operations. With experts on hand, round-table discussions and case study exhibits, we will be able to highlight successful projects which have reaped the benefits of intelligent automation, and help people make the right decisions. It's all about technology transfer and the sharing of best practice."
