Robotics & Technology Implementation Workshop

Gain foundational knowledge on the capabilities and common applications of robotics in manufacturing, along with hands-on training in our standardized approach for implementing advanced manufacturing technology (AMT) projects.

Course Objectives

Participants in the Robotics & AMT Implementation Workshop will explore essential aspects of robotics, including typical manufacturing applications, safety protocols, and a step-by-step method for soliciting, evaluating, and selecting technology projects. Upon completion, attendees will be prepared to lead their own projects, collaborate with technology providers, and successfully implement new technologies.

Course Overview

This in-person workshop combines instructor-led presentations, interactive exercises, and group discussions. Participants will also gain hands-on experience in basic robot programming. Attendees are encouraged to apply the workshop concepts to real-life technology opportunities within their own facilities.

Key Topics Covered:
  • Robotics 101: Introduction to robotic tooling, accessories, and machine vision
  • Support Resources for Small and Medium-Sized Manufacturers (SMMs)
  • Common Challenges & Pain Points for SMMs
  • Business Case Development & Prioritization
  • Safety and Risk Assessment Overview
  • Change Management Strategies
  • Integrator Selection Process
  • Technology Implementation Best Practices
Who Should Attend

This workshop is ideal for those seeking to expand their knowledge of robotics and AMT implementation, including:

  • C-suite executives and managers evaluating robotics for their facility
  • Manufacturing engineers and production supervisors actively involved in technology selection and implementation
  • Anyone interested in learning about the RFP process and acquiring tools for robotics and technology implementation projects
Course Materials

Participants will receive a workshop booklet, ROI templates, and RFP templates (electronic copies provided). A certificate of attendance will be awarded upon successful completion of the course.
