Flexxbotics Announces Transform Production with Robotic Machine Tending Webcast with Universal Robots

Boston, MA, September 13, 2024 --(PR.com)-- Flexxbotics, delivering digital solutions for robot-driven manufacturing at scale, today announced the upcoming online webinar, Transforming Production with Robotic Machine Tending. This event with Universal Robots will be hosted by Machine Design on Tuesday 17 September at 2pm EST.

The promise of collaborative robots in manufacturing is significant, and has proven a highly capital-efficient strategy to increase revenue and expand EBITDA. Achieving greater capacity, productivity and quality using robots results in increases in both throughput and profit per part. Additionally, waste, scrap & rework are minimized, safety is improved, and energy consumption is decreased per unit of output for greater sustainability.

The scope and scale of the benefits attained are directly determined by a plant’s ability to operate robot-enabled production continuously with precision and quality. Utilizing advanced robotic machine tending with in-line inspection for closed-loop processing adjustments in real-time is essential for attaining autonomy in process control and running unattended. Autonomous process control is the critical capability that enables fleets of robots to run ‘lights out’ in the smart factory.

In this session, you will hear from Brian Conner; CSI/CSP Program Manager from Universal Robots and Tyler Bouchard; CEO & Co-Founder from Flexxbotics, as they explain the Smart Factory Production Robotics Maturity Model along with the benefits, challenges and results attainable with a comprehensive production robotics digitalization strategy.

You will learn about the stages of maturity and considerations for your personnel, the robots, existing machines & equipment, solutions and investments to ensure your business objectives are achieved.

“We believe that autonomous process control is a prerequisite for autonomous manufacturing in the smart factory,” said Tyler Bouchard, CEO & Co-founder of Flexxbotics. “We look forward to sharing our real-world experiences with leading companies utilizing production robotics at this upcoming webinar with UR.”
