Robotics for Inspection: Free Manufacturer Workshop
Join the ARM Institute’s Robotics Manufacturing Hub and Catalyst Connection for a free workshop exploring robotics for visual inspection on April 29! This workshop is designed specifically for manufacturers and will center on tangible applications of machine vision and robot assisted metrology for inspection tasks. Inspection tasks are ripe for robotics and automation – in this workshop, you’ll learn how robotics can improve your inspection processes by catching defects, improving quality and efficiency, minimizing manual inspection processes, and more. We will dive into camera types (2D vs 3D), lighting, CMM tending, robotic laser scanning. software and even how AI works in this application area.
Through a combination of expert-led presentations and live demonstrations, attendees will walk away from our workshop with an understanding about how other manufacturers have adopted robotics for inspection, the dos and don’ts of adopting robotics and automation, what’s possible in robotics for inspection, tangible next steps to get started, and information about free resources available to Western PA region manufacturers.
Breakfast and lunch will be provided for free!
What Can You Can Expect:
Our detailed agenda is forthcoming, however, you can expect:
- Expert-led presentations centered on real use cases, lessons learned, and best practices for manufacturers looking to adopt robotics for inspection tasks. Presentations will be focused on knowledge-sharing, not sales.
- Robotics demonstrations in the ARM Institute’s Robotics Manufacturing Hub, including equipment available to Pittsburgh area manufacturers through the Robotics Manufacturing Hub, such as collaborative robots, robotics for grinding, sanding, welding, and inspection, and others
- A supplier exhibit hall showcasing robotic technologies for inspection
- Information about free resources available to help manufacturers in the Southwestern Pennsylvania prototype, test, and adopt robotics solutions
- Networking time to connect with your manufacturing peers, as well as robotics suppliers in the region
Who Should Attend:
- Manufacturers of all sizes; those located in the Southwestern Pennsylvania region will find this workshop to be particularly valuable
- Robotics Suppliers
