This unique one-day event will provide you with the knowledge and information you need to take your manufacturing operation forward into a more efficient and profitable future.

Following the success of last year’s inaugural event, Future Robotics returns on Wednesday 18 September at The Slate, Warwick University. Taking place just before the UK is due to leave the EU, the event will act as a timely resource for anyone interested in learning about new technology and discussing the latest trends. The UK’s manufacturing industry is likely to face increased pressure post-Brexit and robotic automation will prove essential in improving its competitiveness. Therefore finding out what’s available and learning how to implement it is more crucial then ever, making Future Robotics a must attend event.

The focused seminar programme will feature a number of the industry’s leading figures – including keynotes from BARA (British Automation and Robot Association) President, Mike Wilson and GAMBICA Chief Executive, Steve Brambley. There will also be presentations from some of the foremost robotics experts, manufacturers and suppliers sharing ‘real world’ case studies, building an informative picture of both current and future robotic solutions.

Leading companies already signed up to exhibit include: igus, KUKA Robotics, Omron Industrial Automation, Pilz Automation Technology, PPMA Group (UKIVA & BARA), SICK (UK), SIGMATEK, Simmatic Automation Specialists, SMC Pneumatics and Universal Robots. The interactive exhibition space will also showcase the latest products from these leading brands and feature a live demonstration area, providing delegates with an educational, enjoyable and immersive experience of robotics innovation.

Plus, this year we are delighted to have the Kuka Robotics ‘Demonstrailer’ in attendance. This superb mobile robotics showcase will provide delegates with a rare opportunity to get up close and personal with some of the latest technology available from one of the world’s leading robotics innovators and learn how its extensive range of automation solutions can fit into their own manufacturing processes.

And we have now added an extra conference session to the programme, offering attendees even more knowledge and value. Markus Deixler from Sigmatek will be speaking on wireless HMIs for robots  and how they offer a new dimension of operating freedom. The session will cover current limitations of wired robot control systems; legislative requirements and standards to be considered; cost saving: one HMI for multiple machines and systems; special considerations for AGV and other mobile applications; and how to add wireless HMIs to existing control systems.

This key seminar is just one more reason why you need to attend Future Robotics. For more details and the full conference programme, visit the event website at www.futurerobotics.co.uk/conference-programme
