Event recap: Motoman Robotics – Innovation for the Supply Chain
Members and guests of the Cincinnati CSCMP Roundtable attended a one of a kind Facility Tour last Thursday at the Dayton, Ohio Headquarters of Yaskawa Motoman Robotics.
Mr. Dean Elkins, Senior General Manager at Yaskawa America, Inc. delivered an insightful presentation about the company’s past, present and future. We learned the truly global nature of this industry proved by the Motoman robots, or as Mr. Elkins called them “steel collar workers” represented in virtually every industry around the world, from welding to material handling – even in the entertainment world dealing Blackjack cards upon demand.
Seeing all the innovation and automation sparked our imagination about the truly fascinating opportunities of robotics in the Supply Chain Industry. You can learn more about Motoman at their website at www.motoman.com.
