The MAS-WM Technology Showcase - Robotics and Automation is on Thursday 27th November.
Professor Young explains: "Robotics can make huge efficiencies for manufacturers.
Tasks that look simple often aren't, but conversely, things that look quite complicated can often be quite simple and ideal candidates for automation." At the end of the session you will have access to hands-on demonstrations with the robots themselves so you can see how they operate for yourself.
There will be no sales pitch just the opportunity to make informed decisions and meet like-minded people.
The fee for this half-day event is £50.00 and includes lunch.
