Open House addresses key challenges
Shining a spotlight on the key challenges facing UK manufacturers and the ways in which automation can address them, FANUC UK’s annual Open House returns this autumn. Taking place at the company’s UK headquarters in Ansty Park, Coventry on 12-14 November 2024, the event will bring together speakers from global giants such as Airbus, Amazon and Cummins with automation influencers from Make UK, Automate UK and FANUC Europe. In addition to 30+ exhibitors, live robot demonstrations and the live final of the WorldSkills UK Industrial Robotics competitions, visitors can enjoy presentations, panel debates and discussions from over 20 automation experts on topics such as the current state of UK manufacturing, how to attract young people into manufacturing, and adopting robotics into SMEs. Each morning is focused on speaker presentations and panel debates, while the afternoon sessions are devoted to hands-on robotics experiences. Visitors are encouraged to take part in FANUC Academy taster sessions, enjoy live demonstrations, network with peers, seek solutions from FANUC’s exhibitor partners, and support the talented young people competing in the WorldSkills UK finals. Reflecting the key challenges facing today’s manufacturers, each day has a distinct theme: • Day 1 (Tues 12 Nov): Enabling Step Change for Automation Adoption Following the opening address by Managing Director Tom Bouchier, Marco Chacin of Airbus will take to the floor with FANUC’s Oliver Selby to discuss the aerospace company’s automation journey in conjunction with FANUC. Further sessions will focus on ‘Successes and Challenges of Global Automation’ and ‘The Current State of UK Manufacturing and the Future for the Sector’. • Day 2 (Weds 13 Nov): Education for Automation Adoption Day 2 will feature presentations from current Amazon apprentices, Rosa Wells of University College Birmingham, and the 2023 winners of the WorldSkills competition. A panel debate will also discuss how to attract more young people into manufacturing. • Day 3 (Thurs 14 Nov): UK Automation 2030 The final day of Open House 2024 will begin with an address from FANUC’s European President, Marco Ghirardello. Chris Corkan of Make UK will then consider the ‘State of the Nation: UK Manufacturing’, before Automate UK’s Peter Williamson discusses ‘Changing Culture and Policy to Drive Greater Robot Adoption in the UK’.
