Intelligent automation for continuous production cycles

Robotic machine tending solutions automate loading, unloading, positioning, and transferring components between stations within a production line. They are particularly effective in processes where workflow must remain continuous and synchronized, or where human intervention would cause slowdowns, risks, or resource inefficiencies.

Robotic Solutions for Machine Tending: Technical Objectives

Robotic machine tending solutions are designed to eliminate interruptions caused by manual loading, optimizing the feeding and unloading phases of automatic or semi-automatic machines. The goal is to reduce downtime, standardize part positioning, and free operators from repetitive or hazardous tasks, ultimately improving overall line efficiency.

Most Common Applications

Robotic machine tending is a cross-functional solution, used in various contexts:

  • Mechanical industry – loading and unloading of machining centers, lathes, and presses

  • Plastic or metal molding – automated feeding of injection or stamping presses

  • Assembly – managing workflows between robotic cells or manual stations

  • High-turnover sectors – serial processing of repetitive, medium-sized components

Robotic Solutions for Machine Tending: Technical Architecture

  • SCARA or 6-axis anthropomorphic robots, selected according to the available space and required movement type;

  • Customized gripping systems, suitable for handling rigid, flexible, or heated parts;

  • Optimized programming logic, for managing sequences, waiting times, and machine synchronization;

  • Vision systems or sensors, for part orientation and recognition;

  • An intuitive user interface, enabling quick format changes and real-time cycle monitoring.

Benefits for the Production Department

Adopting a robotic solution for machine tending increases productivity through continuous operation. Machine downtime is reduced, and greater energy efficiency is achieved. Process quality improves thanks to consistent part positioning, while the entire workflow becomes more stable, simplifying planning and maintenance. Additionally, operational safety is enhanced by eliminating the need for operators to interact with potentially hazardous areas.
