Guest Details - Mike Wilson - Business Development Manager - ABB Robotics Topics Discussed - <ul><li>Challenges in UK manufacturing include competition, rising costs, and skills shortage</li><li>Robotic automation benefits</li><li>Implementing robot automation</li><li>Different types of robots are available for manufacturing</li><li>Examples of successful businesses using robot systems are provided</li><li>The potential benefits of implementing robotics in UK manufacturing</li></ul> www.prime-workforce.co.uk "In terms of robots, it is all about improving productivity. It's about increasing yield, getting more out for what you put in, particularly improving the utilization of other equipment." "Using the staff where their skills and attributes can add value to the product, and using robots where you've got tasks that are mundane, repetitive, arduous. Tasks where effectively you're using people as robots. So why not use robots for those tasks?" "Robots will give you consistency, they'll give you consistent high quality, they'll minimize damage, they'll reduce waste, reduce rework." "It's about using the people where you can get most out of the people and using machines, using robots where the repetition is not really suited to the people themselves." "In terms of ROI, most of our customers see a return on investment of about 18 months. But once they've invested... Is that all? 18 months? 18 months. I mean, It can go up to 2 years." "We don't have to reinvent the wheel. And that reduces the risk. So we can help businesses identify where they can best supply the automation." <a href="https://transcript.lol/read/upload/65b3aa5cc4ebf179585d7ea5/65b3ad17c4ebf179585d7f3c?view=transcript&part=0&highlightFrom=0&highlightTo=0" target="_blank" style="color: inherit;">00:00:01</a>-Introduction to Prime Leadership PodcastAn introduction to the Prime Leadership Podcast and its sponsor, Prime Workforce, dedicated to assisting leaders in engineering and manufacturing across the UK in recruiting the right talent for their leadership and management needs.<a href="https://transcript.lol/read/upload/65b3aa5cc4ebf179585d7ea5/65b3ad17c4ebf179585d7f3c?view=transcript&part=0&highlightFrom=0&highlightTo=0" target="_blank" style="color: inherit;">00:00:32</a>-Interview with Mike Wilson from ABBAn interview with Mike Wilson from ABB, discussing the use of robots within UK manufacturing and the current challenges faced by UK manufacturing.<a href="https://transcript.lol/read/upload/65b3aa5cc4ebf179585d7ea5/65b3ad17c4ebf179585d7f3c?view=transcript&part=0&highlightFrom=0&highlightTo=0" target="_blank" style="color: inherit;">00:01:24</a>-Challenges in UK ManufacturingDiscussion on the challenges faced by UK manufacturing, including growing competition from overseas, rising costs, skills shortage, and low productivity.<a href="https://transcript.lol/read/upload/65b3aa5cc4ebf179585d7ea5/65b3ad17c4ebf179585d7f3c?view=transcript&part=0&highlightFrom=0&highlightTo=0" target="_blank" style="color: inherit;">00:03:31</a>-Benefits of Robotic Automation in ManufacturingExploration of the benefits of robotic automation in manufacturing, including improving productivity, increasing yield, and better utilization of staff.<a href="https://transcript.lol/read/upload/65b3aa5cc4ebf179585d7ea5/65b3ad17c4ebf179585d7f3c?view=transcript&part=0&highlightFrom=0&highlightTo=0" target="_blank" style="color: inherit;">00:07:20</a>-Implementation Strategy for Robot SystemsDiscussion on the importance of developing a strategy for implementing robot systems in manufacturing, starting with relatively easy tasks and developing the necessary skills within the business.<a href="https://transcript.lol/read/upload/65b3aa5cc4ebf179585d7ea5/65b3ad17c4ebf179585d7f3c?view=transcript&part=0&highlightFrom=0&highlightTo=0" target="_blank" style="color: inherit;">00:08:29</a>-Types of Robots Available for ManufacturersExplanation of the different types of robots available for manufacturers, including highly precise dexterous machines, large machines for palletizing, and high-speed machines for packaging.<a href="https://transcript.lol/read/upload/65b3aa5cc4ebf179585d7ea5/65b3ad17c4ebf179585d7f3c?view=transcript&part=0&highlightFrom=0&highlightTo=0" target="_blank" style="color: inherit;">00:09:49</a>-Engaging with Experts for Robot AutomationRecommendation to engage with experts for advice and support on robot automation, and the importance of developing a business plan for implementing robot systems.<a href="https://transcript.lol/read/upload/65b3aa5cc4ebf179585d7ea5/65b3ad17c4ebf179585d7f3c?view=transcript&part=0&highlightFrom=0&highlightTo=0" target="_blank" style="color: inherit;">00:11:45</a>-Real-life Scenarios of Robot ImplementationExamples of real-life scenarios where companies have successfully employed robot systems to improve production, reduce costs, and increase productivity.<a href="https://transcript.lol/read/upload/65b3aa5cc4ebf179585d7ea5/65b3ad17c4ebf179585d7f3c?view=transcript&part=0&highlightFrom=0&highlightTo=0" target="_blank" style="color: inherit;">00:14:48</a>-Return on Investment for Robot SystemsDiscussion on the return on investment for robot systems, including improved productivity, reduced costs, and the typical return on investment period of about 18 months.<a href="https://transcript.lol/read/upload/65b3aa5cc4ebf179585d7ea5/65b3ad17c4ebf179585d7f3c?view=transcript&part=0&highlightFrom=0&highlightTo=0" target="_blank" style="color: inherit;">00:20:33</a>-Opportunities for Robotics in UK ManufacturingHighlighting the opportunities for applying robots in UK manufacturing, the need to invest in the latest technologies, and the support available for businesses starting on the journey of robot automation. #manufacturing #
