German Chancellor Olaf Scholz visits OMRON's booth at Hannover Messe 2023

17 April 2023

Today, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz visited the booth of OMRON Corporation at Hannover Messe 2023, together with the President of Indonesia (partner country of Hannover Messe this year), Mr Joko Widodo, and his wife.

The Chancellor had a first-hand experience of how robotics and AI can support flexible learning for assembly lines and virtual testing and operator training.


As the shortage of labour remains a pressing concern across all manufacturing sectors, businesses must explore ways to optimise human capabilities by integrating people-oriented automation technologies. 


An ideal solution is a harmonised automation approach that prioritises the balance between productivity, sustainability, and worker well-being. The flexible assembly demonstration at the OMRON booth perfectly exemplifies this approach in action.


Seven demonstrations are showcased at OMRON’s booth, illustrating how the company combines automation technologies such as robotics, control, sensing, and vision with emerging technologies like AI, AR, and 5G, to develop advanced solutions that support sustainable manufacturing.


Dr Klaus Kluger, Sales Director for Central Eastern Europe at OMRON, stated, "We are proud to showcase our innovative automation technologies to Chancellor Scholz today. 


“Our solutions have the potential to revolutionise manufacturing by addressing some of the major challenges faced by the industry, such as labour shortage and sustainability. 


“By combining the power of robotics and AI with human capabilities, we can create a better future for manufacturing and society as a whole."


OMRON's booth at Hannover Messe 2023 highlights the company's commitment to developing innovative solutions that promote sustainable manufacturing while addressing the challenges faced by the industry.
