Global automation specialist, Emerson, demonstrated how the company is helping to transform the future of industrial manufacturing and automation through the proven ‘Floor to Cloud’ approach and its comprehensive solutions portfolio at the recent Automatica trade fair in Munich.

Visitors to the Emerson booth learnt how companies of any size can apply a Floor to Cloud strategy to drive sustainable growth, maximise performance quality and boost workforce productivity for immediate and long-term success. Emerson’s immersive and interactive hub
showcased how products from its portfolio – including the Afag, Movicon, PACEdge and PACSystems brands – combine to form intelligent solutions that transform operations across the factory floor and deliver ongoing value.

Live demonstrations in the Emerson booth focused on ways the solution provider can help companies leverage advanced automation and data-driven operations to boost manufacturing performance, achieve carbon-neutral manufacturing and maximise worker potential.

Exhibits included a plug-and-play bowl feeding solution that leverages standardized, flexible, high-precision components to boost accuracy, speed and reliability of small and micro-part feeding applications. Elsewhere on the stand, a global dashboard display, which helps companies unlock the power of their operations with seamless data integration, proved popular among visitors. By connecting machine by machine and factory by factory, manufacturers can compare performance and energy consumption, apply benchmarks and drive continuous improvement.

Also on the stand was a high-speed, electric pick and place system, which demonstrated how manufacturers can improve the precision and performance of this common production line application. Visitors also got to see an automated ballpoint pen assembly solution, which showcased how the full range of Emerson technologies can work together in a seamlessly integrated system to assemble a product.
