Explore how robotics, vision systems and automation can transform textile operations; from returns processing to defect detection
About this Event

The textiles industry is under increasing pressure to modernise operations, manage returns more efficiently, and reduce waste. In this workshop, we’ll explore how technologies such as vision-guided cobots, automated pick-and-place systems, and defect detection can streamline inspection and triage processes. Using the Robotic Readiness Self-Assessment model, we’ll work with you to identify where your organisation currently sits in its ability to adopt these technologies.


The Robotics Revolution is Coming: Are You Ready?

  • Are you a manufacturing leader, production manager, or innovation specialist within the textiles industry?
  • Do you want to understand how automation can modernise production lines and address workforce challenges?
  • This workshop will help you evaluate your organisation’s current readiness, identify growth opportunities, and outline a roadmap for integrating robotics effectively.

As global demand for sustainable and efficient production rises, the textiles industry is turning to robotics to stay competitive. Join us to see how your organisation can benefit from the next wave of manufacturing innovation.
