Sweet win for ABB's robotic business

ABB's robotics business has won Food Processing magazine's Robotics and Automation award for the installation of two robotic lines at the Honeytop Speciality Food plant in Dunstable, Bedfordshire.

Nigel Platt, ABB's UK sales and marketing manager for robotics, says: "The award is the culmination of a lot of hard work by ABB engineers, and our channel partner, RG Luma, who designed, built and installed the production lines." As Honeytop's first investment in robotic technology, the judges were impressed that the installation is reducing turnaround times, and as a result is ensuring the company can meet its customers' tight deadlines without delay.
