Seminar and workshop
26 March 2018
ABB’s forthcoming Switch to Robots seminar will explain how ongoing reductions in the cost and complexity of robotic automation are opening up new opportunities for UK SMEs.

Taking place at ABB’s Milton Keynes site on Wednesday 13th June 2018, the event will provide a step-by-step guide to introducing robot automation to the factory floor.
The seminar provides a guide to key issues around specifying, installing and operating a robot, including how to assess which processes can be automated, how to develop the right solution for your needs and how to calculate the potential RoI that can be achieved in different types of applications.
There will also be a hands-on workshop session, providing the opportunity to see and use some of the latest robot technology, including ABB’s RobotStudio offline programming software, which helps to reduce the time and cost of setting up a robot system by enabling robot cells to be modelled and tested off-line.
“Misconceptions about the cost, flexibility and complexity of robots are stopping many small to medium UK manufacturing companies from realising their true potential,” says Mike Wilson, general industry sales manager for ABB Robotics in the UK and Ireland. “Our Switch to Robots event has been designed to help businesses to easily identify whether a robot could be beneficial and explain the steps they need to take in specifying and installing the best solution for their requirements.”
