AUTO-MOULDING: FANUC UK TO HOST DEDICATED AUTOMATION EVENT FOR INJECTION MOULDERS

FANUC UK is set to open its doors to the British moulding market with a dedicated automation open house at the end of September.

The event will be held at its UK headquarters in Antsy Park, Coventry, on 29th September – 1st October, with visitors encouraged to sign-up to specific days to accommodate social distancing measures while on site. More Covid-19 regulations may be in effect at the event in government guidelines and restrictions develop.

Front and centre will be a number of machines from FANUC’s ROBOSHOT automated injection moulding series in operation across several exhibits, covering injection moulding, cobots, IIoT, and FANUC’s wide range of industrial robots.

Tom Bouchier, Managing Director at FAUNC UK, comments: “2020 has been a challenging time for manufacturing, but we know how resilient and adaptable the sector is in the UK. With attention now turning to how automation can be used to facilitate safe working, events such as these are a great way to share knowledge and solutions with one another.

“Our highly versatile ROBOSHOT machine is the perfect example of an automated solution that can boost productivity, precision, and reliability, while simultaneously using less energy than hydraulic machines. Last year, our first ever Open House was a brilliant platform to discuss automation’s role in improving UK manufacturing, and this event builds on that by offering application-specific illustrations of the opportunities there are to improve manufacturing processes.”

The seven injection moulding exhibits will be as follows:

The event will also include a dedicated collaborative robot area, which will give attendees the chance to get up close and personal with FANUC’s new lightweight cobot, the CRX10iA. Collaborative technology is an area that has received much attention in recent months, and with exhibits including a beer pouring robot, the potential uses of cobots will be on full display.

Alongside ROBOSHOT and cobots, there will be the opportunity for visitors to look at FANUC’s entire portfolio of industrial robots and automation solutions. The IoT Area will display software products such as MT-LINKi, ZDT (zero downtime), and IIoT platform FIELD, allowing visitors to see real-time quality, machine, and order status monitoring of all machines and robot cells.

Tom concludes: “Our hope is that this event will help to demonstrate how automation can help UK manufacturing improve its position in relation to international competitors. With a special focus on injection moulding, it will showcase the latest technology, and ultimately provide a platform for those interested in boosting productivity to explore their potential.”

MTC Holds Future Of Manufacturing Event

Workshops to help SMEs improve productivity

Manufacturing experts at the Coventry-based Manufacturing Technology Centre are to hold a free event aimed at giving small and medium sized companies practical advice to improve their productivity.

The Future of Technology event at the MTC on Tuesday, November 19 is aimed specifically at SMEs and will be made up of interactive workshops showcasing the technologies and advanced processes available to improve productivity and meet the manufacturing challenges of the future.

The programme of workshops will include Digital Manufacturing, de-mystifying industrial digitalisation and explaining the support available from the MTC, Additive Manufacturing, one of the fastest growing advances in manufacturing processes which can reduce cost, improve quality and reduce time to market. The MTC is home to the National Centre for Additive Manufacturing.

Workshops will also cover Robotics and Automation, Skills and Training and productivity improvement programmes delivered by the MTC’s Manufacturing Support Services team.

Dean Baker, director of the MSS team, said the event would  help SMEs understand the technology and processes available to help them improve their productivity, costs and delivery performance.

“The range of advice, equipment and tools available to manufacturing businesses can be baffling. This event aims to give practical, independent advice to SMEs to help them through technological, business and cultural change,” he said.

The event, at the Advanced Manufacturing Training Centre, is free to attend but places are limited so registration is vital. Those interested should visit www.the-mtc.org/event-items/future-of-manufacturing

The MTC was founded by the University of Birmingham, Loughborough University, the University of Nottingham and TWI Ltd. The MTC’s industrial members include some of the UK’s major global manufacturers.

The MTC aims to provide a competitive environment to bridge the gap between university-based research and the development of innovative manufacturing solutions, in line with the Government’s manufacturing strategy. The MTC is part of the High Value Manufacturing Catapult, supported by Innovate UK.

FANUC Open House 2019

The UK is the only G7 country with a robot density below the world’s average and is 30% less productive per hour than manufacturers in Germany.
How can we improve these statistics and re-position the UK as a global leader in manufacturing once again?
Automation is going to play an integral role in ensuring UK manufacturing is able to compete, yet many manufacturers remain sceptical as to its cost, payback period, and suitability for their applications.

FANUC is inviting UK manufacturers to its first ever Open House event on 29 – 31 October 2019, to help understand the importance of automation, as well as how cost-effective it can be.
