Why have you decided to support Mindtech for its 5th edition in 2027?
The decision stems from the fact that Aitor Fernández, our Country Manager for Spain and Portugal, had already attended all previous editions of Mindtech through companies we have worked with. Thanks to this previous experience, we have seen a significant impact on our clients when we showcase our products at this trade fair. In this regard, we realised at Mindtech that we are well-positioned in the north-west of the Iberian Peninsula, effectively reaching clients throughout the region and in northern Portugal, which is why it is key for us when it comes to developing our business.
What added value does taking part in Mindtech bring to your company?
This industrial and technology trade fair is crucial for showcasing our products to customers in the north-west of the peninsula; otherwise, we would be unable to do so and would need to organise one-to-one meetings with each customer, which would often prove impossible given the size of some of our equipment.
What new developments will you be presenting at Mindtech 2027?
Here at JAKA Robotics, we would like to introduce our ZU35 robot, which features a load capacity of 35 kg and a reach of 2 metres, alongside other innovative, cutting-edge solutions that we believe are truly significant for our country’s industry.
What do you think is the unique value of the metal industry and its associated technologies in the Iberian Cluster in particular?
This is a very important industry that is undergoing significant change and modernisation due to the emergence of new technologies. Faced with a shortage of skilled staff, companies have been looking to robotics to address this labour shortage. As such, at JAKA Robotics we are constantly working alongside the sector to find ever-new solutions that help businesses become more competitive with other companies worldwide.
¿Cuáles son los retos que creéis que afronta la industria en la actualidad?
Labour shortages and competitiveness are the biggest challenges currently facing the industry. With Artificial Intelligence already permeating every aspect of our lives, it is now beginning to find its way into automation applications as well, which will provide new solutions to improve our efficiency and productivity compared to other companies in the industry.
What is needed to address these challenges and maintain the industry’s competitiveness?
Par poder hacer frente a estos retos, es necesario adoptar las nuevas tecnologías y buscar colaboraciones y proyectos conjuntos, de forma que así, entre todos, podamos satisfacer las demandas más exigentes del mercado y de sus clientes.
Creo que estando presentes en la feria Mindtech podemos dar este servicio, entre JAKA Robotics y el resto de empresas expositoras, ya que en un mismo recinto pueden abarcar diferentes tecnologías, productos y soluciones a aplicar en el futuro para la mejora continua de procesos y productividad.
