Making Automation a Reality
To set the scene, I’ll just say that Pack Expo was… packed! Pun intended. The foot traffic at this year’s Pack Expo trade show at McCormick Place in Chicago was unusually heavy. That’s great news for businesses! It’s also nice that people are feeling comfortable enough to venture out in this post-COVID world. It was good to see everyone.
How to Make Trade Show Attendance Pay Off
The Kawasaki Robotics booth at Pack Expo 2022.
Walking by booths like the one for Kawasaki Robotics (pictured here), you can’t help being impressed. The engineering that went into these displays is incredible. All of us recognize that it’s an exciting time in industrial automation. We’re in the midst of a true revolution.
Every time a new trade show takes place, the technology is even more impressive. Automation cell applications have become more standardized. They are consistent and reliable. In short, they work, and the payoff to having them in your workspace is substantial. Now, more than ever, you can’t afford not to automate.
The question then, is how do bring what you saw at the show to your place of business?
Exploring How These Demos are Made
FPE Automation and Rocketfarm A/S
made this palletizing demo a reality for PIAB.
Companies like Universal Robots, Epson, Teledyne Dalsa, Zebra Technologies, Piab, Panasonic and Canon make world-class products, among the best in the business. But they don’t operate in a vacuum (pun intended). They need additional components and engineering to pull it all together into a working cell. That’s where FPE Automation comes in. We take products out of the box and transform them into production-ready, functioning systems that fit your specific needs.
So, when our partners need to demonstrate exactly how their products can be utilized, they often rely on FPE Automation. At a trade show, all eyes are on you. A demo absolutely can’t fail. Our partners know they can rely on us when the pressure is on.
That’s why we are proud to have been a part of major trade show demos for several years. For example, recently at the Automate show, we were honored to be asked to participate in the Panasonic booth. There, we displayed a cobot bin picking, vision/data reading and laser-marking display. Over the past few years, FPE Automation has been honored to be invited to create in-booth demos for Universal Robots, Canon, PHD, and many more, giving our local business a presence at many national shows. If you missed us, follow us on LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, or even on TikTok, to catch an upcoming national or local show date
FPE Automation is included in the Panasonic booth earlier this year.
