Experience the FANUC UK Injection Moulding event through our virtual tour of FANUCs UK headquarters. FANUC will showcase it’s wide range of moulding machines combined with the latest CNC technology – making it ideally suited to the high precision moulding with integrated robotic automation.
We are inviting the British moulding market to our dedicated virtual automation open house. Register your details to gain access to our virtual event.
Front and centre will be a number of machines from FANUC’s ROBOSHOT automated injection moulding series in operation across several exhibits, covering injection moulding, cobots, IIoT, and FANUC’s wide range of industrial robots.
Tom Bouchier, Managing Director at FANUC UK, comments: “2020 has been a challenging time for manufacturing, but we know how resilient and adaptable the sector is in the UK. With attention now turning to how automation can be used to facilitate safe working, virtual events such as these are a great way to share knowledge and solutions with one another.
“Our highly versatile ROBOSHOT machine is the perfect example of an automated solution that can boost productivity, precision, and reliability, while simultaneously using less energy than hydraulic machines. Last year, our first ever Open House was a brilliant platform to discuss automation’s role in improving UK manufacturing, and this virtual event builds on that by offering application-specific illustrations of the opportunities there are to improve manufacturing processes.”
Hi-Tech Automation are a system builder with long-standing Strategic Partner status and proud to be co-hosting the 2020 Roboshot technology days at Fanuc UK. Specialising in machine tending of both FANUC ROBOSHOT and FANUC ROBODRILL products, Hi-Tech are demonstrating a number of de moulding cells with FANUC robots and CNC controls.
