Smart Factory Expo brings together manufacturers of digital technologies to transform UK manufacturing operations; The Fourth Industrial Revolution.

Visitors to the Pryor stand, A60 in the Internet of Things Zone, can see traceability, identification and data capture technologies in action. The only UK manufacturer of Dot-Peen marking machines and world-leading laser marking technologies, Pryor has the expertise and local support to help companies of all sizes to implement traceability in digital manufacturing operations.

Pryor will demonstrate a range of laser marking systems using low-powered, highly reliable fibre laser technology. Laser engraving is a fast, non-contact, fixtureless marking method, delivering a permanent, high-contrast mark in very short cycle times.
