MEDIA ALERT: LOS ALAMITOS, Calif. – Feb. 14, 2023

Who: Epson Robots, the #1 SCARA robot manufacturer in the world, will be hosting an upcoming webinar with Medical Design & Outsourcing on February 21. The webinar entitled, “The Benefits of Automation in Medical Design Manufacturing,” will explain how medical device manufacturers can determine when automation makes sense for their product or process, what parts of the process should be automated and how to choose a partner who can help design and implement the right system to meet specific goals and requirements.

As the demand for medical devices continues to grow, it is important to know the benefits automation brings to companies, workers and customers, and to understand the key components that lead to a successful automation project.

The session will be hosted by Danielle Collins, product manager, Epson Robots, and Peter Lehnen, president and lead designer, Lehnen Industrial Services.
