Universal Robots launches expert dispensing conference

210219_URUniversal Robots is pleased to announce the launch of a brand-new online conference focused on achieving consistency and quality for dispensing applications within manufacturing. The event takes place on 3 March 2021 at 11am GMT.

A task such as gluing can present significant health and safety issues for employees. It can also prove difficult for humans to ensure uniformity in the process as even the most experienced of operators is liable to apply subtly different amounts of adhesive and force each time. The task is therefore a prime candidate for automation to drive up safety, consistency and control.

During the conference, experts will advise how to best deploy cobot dispensing applications to:

  • Prevent employees having to work in close proximity to hot glue or fumes
  • Improve quality through greater repeatability
  • Increase output through the quicker application of glue or sealant
  • Ensure consistency across employees and shift patterns

Mark Gray, Country Manager UK&I, Universal Robots said, “Our cobots are designed to work alongside human employees to take on dull, dirty and dangerous tasks. Our customers often report that dispensing tasks can be some of the most dangerous tasks for employees. That’s why we’ve created this brand-new expert conference to show manufacturers that cobots can help them prioritise safety and quality at the same time.”

Attendees can sign up here to join the webinar at 11am GMT on the 3 March 2021.
