March 8, 2006

Delegates at Tire Technology Expo 2006 in Stuttgart, Germany, will examine the past, present and phenomenal future of automated tire storage and retrieval solutions through the eyes of an industry veteran.

Bill Torrens will offer his insight on delivering new, cutting-edge technology to the marketplace with a presentation entitled: "Gantry Robots – Redefining Green Tire Storage and Cured Tire Distribution" at Tire Technology Expo 2006.

The session will begin at 17:10 on March 7th, 2006, and focus on improving the performance of storage, retrieval, palletizing and press delivery solutions for both green and cured tire applications. Torrens is the Sales and Marketing Director for RMT Robotics, a Canadian company with 18 tire handling installations worldwide, handling more than 430,000 tires per day.

RMT Robotics has chosen the Stuttgart show to reveal a new solution for streamlining the press delivery process. Torrens is revealing little before the invitation-only launch. "It's called ADAM," he confirmed. "It's a revolutionary Robotic Guided Vehicle designed to function in product delivery."

Since 1981, RMT Robotics, has established a reputation as a pioneer in developing large-scale gantry solutions for the tire manufacturing industry. The company, which celebrates its 25th Silver Anniversary in 2006, boasts the largest Tire System installation base in the world, handling more than 430,000 tires per day.
