AUTOMATION SYSTEMS & ROBOTICS

Complete Systems.
Engineered and Proven.

From robotics integration to multi-axis motion systems. We design, build and commission complete automation solutions for UK OEMs and end users — working closely throughout the development process.

ROBOTICS INTEGRATION

Best-Fit Robotics for Your Application

We integrate robots from leading manufacturers, selecting the right platform for your specific application rather than defaulting to a single brand. Collaborative robots, industrial robots, SCARA and delta configurations — specified, programmed and commissioned to work reliably in your environment.

Robot selection is driven by your payload, reach, cycle time, environment and safety requirements. We handle the full project: application engineering, gripper selection, vision integration, cell guarding, PLC interface and operator training.

Collaborative robots (cobots) for human-shared spaces
Industrial robots for high-speed, high-payload applications
Vision-guided picking, placing and assembly
End-of-arm tooling: grippers, suction, custom
Safe robot cell design and CE marking
Offline simulation before physical build
ROBOT PLATFORMS WE WORK WITH
Collaborative (cobots)Universal Robots, ABB GoFa, Doosan, Kassow
Industrial (6-axis)ABB, FANUC, KUKA
Vision systemsCambrian AI, Cognex, IFM, Photoneo
End-of-arm toolingSchunk, Piab, OnRobot
Platform selection is always driven by your application requirements — not by distribution arrangements.

FURTHER CAPABILITIES

Automation Systems

Multi-Axis Motion Systems

Coating, dispensing, gantry and pick-and-place

Bespoke multi-axis systems for coating, dispensing, inspection and assembly. Servo-controlled X/Y/Z and rotary axes, integrated vision and process monitoring. From specification through CE marking.

2–6 axis servo motionABB MicroFlex and MotiFlex drivesVision and process integrationCodesys EtherCAT control
PROVEN RESULT
±2μm coating tolerance achieved on 4-axis coating cell

Motion Control Retrofits

Modernise and upgrade existing machinery

Replace failed or end-of-life drives and controls with modern systems. We analyse existing machines, design the replacement solution and manage the upgrade to minimise production downtime.

Like-for-like and enhanced replacementMinimal planned downtimeFull documentation and CE reviewOperator retraining included
PROVEN RESULT
4–5 day average planned downtime for complete retrofit

Machine Safety Integration

SIL2 / PLe safety systems for new and existing machines

Safety system design, integration and validation for new builds and upgrades. Risk assessment, safety PLC programming, functional safety validation and CE documentation to current Machinery Directive requirements.

Risk assessment (ISO 12100)SIL2/PLe functional safetySafety PLC programmingCE technical file compilation
PROVEN RESULT
Nuclear and high-hazard sector experience
