This week on Manufacturing Happy Hour, we’re exploring what makes an industrial partnership great.

Is it the tech? Is it the company culture? Is it the size of the company?

Today’s podcast answers all of these questions in the context of a global robotics company, KUKA, and all of their partners. We spent an entire day at IMTS 2022 exploring applications from 3D printing to machining to launching robots into space, all while interviewing KUKA’s partners that make all of these applications possible.
