The importance of automation in the plastics industry becomes increasingly important, in these times. For this reason, universal plastics has been in contact with the leading suppliers of the sector to know in what state is the robots in Spain market and how it has evolved to become more and more an essential ally to keep the sector competitive. On these pages we show the views of all those who have agreed to respond to our questionnaire.
It is already customary to take for granted that in Europe (and Spain) the automation in the plastics industry is already an obligation. This claim, do there is actually in demand for robots of this industry?
No. Companies that can invest in high-end machines, are easier to add robots to their lines. But our client, midrange machines, still ignores the robots.
Josep Puig, Manager of Sieplto.
