PROGRAM OBJECTIVES―

In this half day interactive webinar, local manufacturers and integrators will present their examples of robotics and automation implementation. They will get down to the details of what went right, wrong, and could be improved if they did it again so that you can learn from them. This webinar will include an overview of robotics and automation, two real local manufacturers who incorporated robotics and automation into their business, and an integrator who helps make that change possible. Each case study will be followed up with breakout sessions to speak with these presenters as well as a Q&A with the whole group. We will conclude with a panel discussion with several others who have helped bring robotics and automations into their workplace. At the end of the webinar we hope you will be able to recognize how a robotic or automation solution could benefit your company and have an idea of where to start.
