Aimed at supporting manufacturers and Tier 1 suppliers in the transition to fully automated operations, Atlas Copco Tools & Industrial Assembly Solutions is doubling its footprint at this year’s Advanced Engineering Show. The global leader in smart tooling and industrial assembly software solutions will be showcasing its Smart Factory philosophy.

Advanced Engineering will see Atlas Copco feature ‘Avantguard’, its latest generation error-proofing software. Atlas Copco’s ‘Smart Integrated Assembly’ is designed to wirelessly connect all digital tools throughout the factory, harnessing the latest 5G connectivity on selected tool models in order to optimise production, improve quality, reduce
