Automation UK
Second editionof the
Packaging machine manufacturer Schubert showcases its extensive portfolio of solutions for packaging consumer goods.
L
ast year, Automation UK took place for the first time in Coventry, England. As a result of its resounding success, the trade fair for automation and robotics is now entering its second
round – and will be taking place this year on 18 and 19 June. Schubert UK Ltd will, of course, be participating once again. Schubert’s UK sales location was not only an exhibitor last year, but it is also a co-founder of Automation UK. In the CBS Arena at Stand F10, the British team, led by Mark Stepney, will be providing information on the Germany- based company’s latest highly flexible, efficient, and resource-saving solutions for packaging products of all kinds and from all sectors. This year, visitors to the Schubert stand will have an opportunity to view a tog.519 cobot live and in action. At Automation UK, the mobile robot will be demonstrating how it can pick & place unsorted products at speeds of up to 90 cycles per minute using the AI-supported vision system. The two-day event offers both
exhibitors and visitors a unique opportunity to learn about and discuss the latest innovative automation and robotic solutions. It is organised by the British Automation and Robot Association (BARA) and Automate UK (formerly
20 Kennedy’s Confection May 2024
the PPMA). This umbrella organisation represents over 600 member companies in the UK processing and packaging machine industry. Mark Stepney, Managing Director of Schubert UK, is the Vice Chairman of both BARA and Automate
UK. Together with his team, he is working to establish Automation UK as one of the most important UK industry trade fairs. As an exhibitor this year, the packaging machine experts are looking forward to showcasing the tog.519 cobot in action to their customers, potential customers and visitors. Mark Stepney explained: “Prevailing economic challenges such as high-cost pressures on companies and a shortage of skilled labour cannot be solved overnight. But they can be addressed with sensible solutions. The tog.519 cobot can compensate for the lack of skilled labour and close automation gaps so that production can be made more efficient and cost-effective.”
The tog.519 cobot – master of pick & place applications The cobot, which Schubert will be demonstrating live at Automation UK, is designed for high-performance pick & place applications: At speeds of up to 90 cycles per minute, the tog.519 picks various unsorted products – for example, cereal bars in the food sector, or pumps, bottles and lids in the cosmetics sector – from a crate or conveyor belt and places them in any desired destination and/ or packing configuration. The system can achieve this thanks to AI-supported image processing developed in-house by Schubert. It recognises products as it
