Omron to demonstrate flexible manufacturing solutions at Automate Show

Automation solutions provider Omron Automation Americas will demonstrate a diverse solution portfolio encompassing traceability, flexible manufacturing, human-machine collaboration and more at the upcoming Automate Show in Chicago this April.

The company says it will showcase “applications for the factory of today and that of the future”.

The biennial Automate Show gives attendees the opportunity to see many of the world’s cutting-edge manufacturing technologies in action. 

Taking place from April 8-11 in Chicago, it provides a key opportunity for Omron to showcase technologies that help manufacturers improve productivity, flexibility and human-machine interaction.

In booth #8737, Omron will be presenting its Factory Harmony exhibit, a multifaceted display that provides a vision of the manufacturing floor of the future.

Each demo in the exhibit is designed to illustrate ways in which machines can collaborate more effectively with humans on the factory floor.

The Factory Harmony exhibit includes a fully integrated vision-guided robotics pick-and-place demo that shows the potential for machines to manage finely detailed work with speed and accuracy as part of a flexible manufacturing system, as well as a traceability demo comprised of laser marking and robotic technologies.

Flexibility and traceability are key targets of Omron solutions.

Other robotic solutions on display at Automate include Omron’s TM Series collaborative robot, a flexible solution for human-machine collaboration, and the LD Series mobile robots that move materials flexibly throughout the factory.

Both solutions help manufacturers meet growing demands for customization without completely reconfiguring their production lines.

The Omron booth will also feature a demo of its most advanced machine vision technology as well as its safety product offerings.

In total, the Factory Harmony exhibit demonstrates a new standard for human-machine collaboration to help manufacturers enjoy improvements in productivity, efficiency, quality and worker satisfaction.
