Automate 2022 Opens for Registration

Registration is now open for Automate 2022, North America's leading automation trade show and conference. Produced by the Association for Advancing Automation (A3), the first in-person Automate since 2019 will be held June 6-9, 2022, in Detroit after 23 years in Chicago. The event, which hosts many of the industry's leading manufacturers and system integrators in robotics, machine vision, motion control, artificial intelligence and smart automation, is on pace to be the largest ever, with vendor space nearing capacity at close to 300,000 square feet of exhibits.

"Interest in robotics and automation overall is clearly at an all-time high, with robot orders breaking records," said Jeff Burnstein, president of A3. "Companies from nearly every industry, from automotive manufacturers to aerospace, life sciences, pharmaceuticals, medical device, warehousing, metals, electronics, food and consumer goods, know they need to automate to succeed, even more so as they struggle with labor shortages and supply chain issues. With more than 350 exhibitors already signed up, Automate is the place to be for individuals and enterprises wanting to learn about the latest technologies and strategies that will help them reach their goals."

Highlights of the Automate show and conference include:

"Much has happened in automation since our last Automate event in 2019 with advancements in robotics and enabling technologies such as AI, machine vision and motion control helping to simplify automation deployment," Burnstein added.
