Automation UK: The Revolution in Food Manufacturing
The future growth of the UK economy is poised for a revolution through the implementation of robotics and systems integration. Automation UK is the new exhibition showcasing the latest products, developments, and solutions in robotics and automation. It is set to take place at the Coventry Building Society Arena from June 20-21, 2023. As the countdown to the show enters its final weeks, the event is expected to be a sell-out. It will highlight the importance of automation and its potential to improve efficiency and productivity in the food manufacturing industry.
BARA (British Automation & Robot Association) owns and organizes the event. It aims to assist in the development of industrial robots and automation in British industry and promote their use. The exhibitors are all members of BARA, showcasing their latest products and services, while experts provide advice and support. Big names like ABB, CKF, FANUC, Festo, KUKA Robotics, Mills CNC, Piab, Pilz Automation, RM Group, Schubert, and Yaskawa will be exhibiting, showcasing the latest advancements in the industry.
The Machine Vision Conference (MVC), UKIVA’s (UK Industrial Vision Association), will host the event with Automation UK, as it displays the latest developments in imaging systems and industrial vision. The goal is to shine the spotlight on the disruptive technologies and highlight their true value to the wider economy. Automation UK is set to be the largest annual gathering of industry experts under one roof in the UK.
For businesses operating in the automation and robotics markets, Automation UK has been designed to showcase the latest products and services. The exhibition features live demonstrations of the latest machines, allowing visitors to make informed investment decisions. The event provides visitors with an opportunity to meet new suppliers, learn about new technology and new techniques as well as explore how automation and robotics can help improve their business efficiency, productivity, and accuracy.
BARA and UKIVA are members of the PPMA (Processing and Packaging Machinery Association) group of trade associations. An informative and content-led seminar program will be located in the arena’s exhibition hall and led by BARA, delivering a range of informative topics around the opportunities of automating equipment, processes, and systems and the benefits it can bring to a visitor’s business.
Visitors can register for the free-to-attend event, and the strong numbers suggest it is proving to be an attractive proposition for the industry. Multiple suppliers, technicians, experts, advisory bodies, and advocates will be present under one roof. A day spent at Automation UK finding out more about these exciting, transformative technologies will save a visitor hours of internet trawling and weeks of arranging meetings.
Mark Stepney, Managing Director of Schubert UK and a PPMA board member, said, “its legitimacy is underlined by the backing of two leading industry associations – BARA and UKIVA – and will be an event not to miss.”
