Robotics and Automation can significantly improve manufacturing productivity. This presentation will share ideas on how to lay a frame work to ensure the true benefit of automation and robotics will be realized with the emphasis on optimizing the manual process first and then automating redundant tasks. Optimizing the manual process is the fundamental first step requiring little to zero capital investment and is a prerequisite for sound automation installations. This presentation will couple industrial ways to improve Overall Equipment Effectiveness and the application of industrial robotics.
The educational and informative conferences run Sept. 8-11, 2014 in the West Building, Level 1. To register for this or any session, visit www.imts.com/education/imtsconference.html.
