Press release submitted on behalf of Conair.
Conair will be making its largest – and most interactive – new-product introduction ever at NPE 2024, where it will display more than 55 pieces of equipment, working medical and filament extrusion lines, and 12 new products, all aimed at helping users “Make Every Pellet Count.” The Conair booth (W2113) will feature products in eight functional areas, inviting visitors to encounter more than a dozen interactive “hands on” demonstrations with a new generation of smart, AI-driven controls and equipment. NPE 2024 takes place from May 6-10 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando.
Highlighting Conair’s NPE 2024 booth is a live, interactive demonstration of a novel and patented AI-driven conveying technology that virtually eliminates the need for human interaction or adjustments to central conveying system. This patented AI technology creates and maintains optimal source-to-destination material flows regardless of material characteristics, distances, or destinations while automatically compensating for common conveying problems. All the operator needs to do is tell the conveying controller where to send the material, and the technology takes care of the rest.
“At Conair, we have always sold auxiliary equipment to processors with the understanding that it’s going to provide labor savings and increased productivity,” says Sam Rajkovich, VP Sales & Marketing. “Our latest products, including our AI-driven conveying technology, offer processors a practical, affordable, and technically advanced way to meet high labor training and turnover costs head-on. Investing in this product is going to directly save labor and simplify training because artificial intelligence will not only optimize the process of conveying, but also will eliminate labor costs, specifically the need for error-prone manual interactions with the conveying equipment.”
Conair invites processors to bring a list of their most annoying conveying issues to the booth, and experience in person how this AI-driven solution eliminates those daily headaches.
