TM Robotics (Europe) Ltd, the European professional robot sales partner of Toshiba Machine, has announced a new machine vision partnership agreement with UK firm PCS Industries. The arrangement offers customers an array of vision equipment and professional software products as well as the integration skills of PCS. The two companies will be exhibiting together at EasyFairs PACKTECH in March to demonstrate the efficacy of their range of solutions in the automation industry.

PCS Industries is an accredited Cognex partner. As a result it can provide assurances of a high professional standard of consultancy as well as the full range of products provided by the US machine vision giant. Furthermore, should the application require it, the company can also integrate vision products from almost any supplier across the globe.

"The last few years have shown us that our customers want a single point of contact and complete turn-key solutions," explained Peter Jelf, technical director of PCS Industries. "As a result, we've moved away from the re-seller approach and back to the company's roots as a complete solutions provider. The relationship with TM Robotics allows ours customers access to the company's range of SCARA and Cartesian robots, which is a major step forward."

TM Robotics and PCS Industries will share stand number 219 at PACKTECH, on March 12-13.
