PODCAST: Robotics and manufacturing – Building success with insightful implementation

Industrial robots have been a staple in automating manufacturing facilities for a few years now. The key to profitably implementing robots, according to experts, is understanding what is available and selecting the option best suited to a manufacturer’s business goals.

Jeff Burnstein, from the Association for Advancing Automation (A3) joins us for this episode to discuss “Robotics and manufacturing: Building success with insightful implementation.”

Jeff Burnstein is president of A3, the parent group of the Robotic Industries Association (RIA), AIA – Advancing Vision + Imaging, and the Motion Control and Motors Association (MCMA). Burnstein joined RIA in 1983 and has held a variety of senior positions, culminating in his promotion to president in 2007.

In this episode, Burnstein talks about the trends in industrial robotics, what is next in the human-robot collaboration space, how the latest generation of industrial robots are changing job roles and what should manufacturers consider when implementing robotic technologies.
