Custom robotic cells

When the application does not fit a standard solution, we design the cell from scratch: the gripper, the layout, the safety and the program, all tested in our workshop before shipping.

Each item can be contracted separately or as part of a turnkey project.

I.01

Repacking

Transferring parts from one container to another, with forklift loading and unloading.

I.02

Pick and place

Fast part handling between stations.

I.03

Bin picking

Picking loose parts from bins with 3D vision.

I.04

Custom grippers

Tool design and testing with your real product.

I.05

Machine tending

Automatic loading and unloading of process machines.

I.06

Safe operator station

Work zones shared with and separated from the robot.

02 · How we work

Everything that can be tested before the shutdown is tested before.

  1. 01

    Visit and initial data

    We look at the machine or the line, measure the cycle and ask you for the part or its CAD, the layout and photos.

    DELIVERABLE · Initial data
  2. 02

    Layout and simulation

    The cell in 3D with the real robot: reach, interference and simulated cycle. The first proposal is free of charge.

    DELIVERABLE · Proposal with layout and cycle time
  3. 03

    Manufacturing and programming

    The mechanical parts are manufactured and we program the robot, PLC, vision and HMI.

    DELIVERABLE · Programs and documentation
  4. 04

    FAT in our workshop

    We build the complete cell in Ortuella and test it, with you present if you wish.

    DELIVERABLE · FAT report
  5. 05

    Commissioning

    Installation at your plant, tuning to production rate and training for production and maintenance staff.

    DELIVERABLE · Acceptance certificate
  6. 06

    Support

    Remote and on-site support for as long as the line runs. Software is handed over open, except proprietary software.

    DELIVERABLE · Program backups
03 · To give you a price

What we need from you.

  • The product or part, and samples if possible.
  • The cycle time you need.
  • The space available and how material arrives and leaves.

The first proposal, with the cell placed in your plant, is free of charge.

04 · Technology

What we use.

If your plant has a different robot, PLC or vision standard, we work within it.

Questions

About custom robotic cells.

Do you test the gripper with our product?

Yes. We test the tool with your real part or product before finalising the design.

Do you work outside the automotive sector?

Yes. Most of our projects are in metal stamping, but we design cells for any sector that needs to handle, inspect or pack.

Is there a charge for the first proposal?

No. With the layout and the part we send you a first proposal with the cell placed in your plant, free of charge.

Other services

Have you got a planned shutdown coming up?

The sooner we know about it, the more work we can do before we reach your plant. An engineer will reply.
