Robotiq Machine Tending Application Workshop

Description:

The Robotiq Machine Tending Application Workshop is a two-day technical workshop on best practices for machine tending applications in the framework of Industry 4.0.

Learn more about concepts like continuous supply of materials, production rate, uptime, I/O signals, and device interfacing. With a focus on raising ROI, improving cycle time, and reducing waste, this application workshop is essential for anyone who wants to build a fully automated cobot cell.
