Schunk will be more than doubling the size of its 2014 stand to accomodate the raft of new products that will be shown alongside established market favourites.
On Stand 5024 at MACH 2016 in Hall 5, the innovator in workholding, toolholding and automation technology will be inviting the manufacturing industry to review a host of new products that will receive their UK exhibition premiere at MACH, whilst industry experts will be discussing Schunk’s technology that meets the criteria of Industry 4.0.
As the industry benchmark in automation, Schunk recently received a visit from EU Commissioner Günther Oettinger to discuss Industry 4.0. At the forefront of the increasing importance of automation and digitisation and its sustainability, Schunk has set up a ‘Smart Factory’ task force responsible for strategy development and implementation of new business models.The company has also developed demomnstration cells that incorporate pick & place units, 3-axis gantries, robots and mobile platforms that autonomously cooperate in assembly, inspection, packaging and transport processes. This expertise will be demonstrated in detail at MACH 2016.
As well as new products and production philosophies, Schunk will be drawing customers attention to the latest product lines that will include the PGN-plus universal gripper that has been considered a benchmark for gripping modules. With the MACH debut of the new PGN-plus Permanent, Schunk is raising the technology bar at this year’s show.
If you would like to view some of the new innovations from the market leading toolholding, workholding and gripping specialist, please visit Stand 5024 at MACH 2016.
