Attendees of PACK EXPO 2023 will see plenty of technologies in Las Vegas, but knowing where to start with automation can be a challenge. Universal Robots offers evaluation advice, a justification calculator, and demonstrations to help.
Before you head to PACK EXPO, the collaborative robot leader recommends doing the following three things to assess your packaging and palletizing needs:
- Take a look at your Top 10 categories of top- and bottom-line improvement. Where does your business stand?
- What method of measurement are you using to justify your investment in automation?
- Are you effectively using your internal resources to provide you with the correct information to make your assessment?
This advice applies to any automation, not just UR cobots.
