|

Attendees will come away with a better understanding of the benefits, costs and risks associated with these approaches and will be better able to judge which path forward is the correct one for them.

With the continued challenges facing manufacturing, many companies are automating for the first time. The first step is identifying the right application and company to work with. Once that is done and the approval to move forward is given, the question that often arises is: now what?

This session will describe the benefits and drawbacks of two possible approaches: purchasing a pre-engineered but unfinished system or a full turn-key solution. Attendees will come away with a better understanding of the benefits, costs and risks associated with these approaches and will be better able to judge which path forward is the correct one for them.

Agenda: 

  • Introduction
  • Challenges facing manufacturers
  • How you start your automation journey goes a long way toward its success
