Companies in the food processing and manufacturing sector will have an opportunity to see latest developments in manufacturing technology at this year’s National Manufacturing Week, which will be held at Sydney Convention & Exhibition Centre, Darling Harbour from Tuesday May 27 to Friday May 30.
“For companies in the food processing and manufacturing sector, NMW is a proven ‘one-stop show’ from Australia’s leading industrial exhibition organiser, and is the only event that brings together market leaders from a wide selection of national and international manufacturing communities,” said John Gorton, Reed Exhibitions’ group director — industrial events.
According to Gorton, the Automation & Robotics pavilion will be of special interest to those working in food processing and manufacturing.
“The Automation & Robotics pavilion has been the fastest-growing sector of NMW since being launched in 2006, with most of the major companies exhibiting again in 2008,” said Gorton.
“With food processing and manufacturing companies looking to the latest technology for efficiency and quality — and to cope with skills shortages — many are increasingly considering automation and robotics to meet their requirements, and the demands of their customers.
“From simple controls to full ‘lights-out’ systems, some of the biggest productivity improvements in a manufacturing facility can be achieved using the leading-edge technology on display at NMW.”
Owned and organised by Reed Exhibitions, NMW 2008 covers all major aspects of the manufacturing sector in a fully integrated event, incorporating an exhibition, seminars and information sessions and related industry association forums and meetings.
“With manufacturers looking to the latest technology for efficiency and quality — and to cope with skills shortages — many are increasingly considering automation and robotics to meet their requirements, and the demands of their customers,” said Gorton.
