The Manufacturers Resource Center hosted an Automation and Manufacturing Technology Show in Upper Macungie Township, Lehigh County on Thursday. The event brought together manufacturers from across the region to witness advanced automated technology in action. Rich Hobbs, President of the MRC, emphasized the importance of automation for manufacturers, highlighting the need for manufacturers to have access to these technologies.
At the show, attendees had the opportunity to explore robots, lasers, and virtual reality technologies. Approximately 150 people participated in the event to learn about machine vision, cyber security, and augmented reality, as well as to hear success stories of these technologies in practice. Vendors like Austin Hooper from Applied Control showcased technologies like the universal robot UR20 palletizer and camera systems using artificial intelligence for inspection applications.
Jason James from Brentwood Industries expressed interest in how robots are being used in insert molding in the plastics industry. The show highlighted that automation solutions are not just limited to expensive robotic platforms but can also include cost-effective tools that can significantly improve productivity. Hobbs emphasized that even solutions as low as $1000 can have a major impact on a manufacturer’s efficiency and productivity.
