Center Valley, PA – April 29, 2024 – Demco Automation along with other companies and organizations in the region participated in the Southern Lehigh Middle School STEAM Expo providing students, parents, and the general public the opportunity to explore hands-on interactive exhibits and live performances related to STEAM (Science Technology Arts & Math) topics.

Demco Automaton demonstrated an industrial robot automatically assembling and disassembling components and an operating prototype where participants could automatically unwrap candy.
