Solution overview

Our solution is a software platform for intuitive and flexible programming of industrial robotic systems, designed to enable rapid deployment of automation even in complex and variable production environments. The main objective is to reduce the time, cost, and expertise traditionally required to program robots, especially for tasks where parts, stations, or process conditions frequently change. The platform addresses key industrial problems such as low reconfigurability of automation, long engineering cycles, and the difficulty of integrating perception, motion, and task logic into robust workflows. The targeted users are manufacturing companies and system integrators who need to automate operations such as machine tending, pick-and-place, and multi-station production processes, including scenarios involving mobile robots and flexible production layouts.

Key features

Our solution stands out from existing robotic programming tools thanks to the following key features: Intuitive task-level programming: instead of relying on low-level robot code, users can define automation workflows at a higher abstraction level, making programming faster and more accessible. Built-in flexibility for changing production scenarios: the platform is designed for frequent reconfiguration, enabling rapid adaptation to new parts, stations, and process conditions without restarting engineering from scratch. Native integration of perception and robot state acquisition: the solution combines visual perception data, robot/gripper state, and motion trajectories into a unified workflow, improving robustness and repeatability in real industrial environments. Support for complex automation setups: it is particularly suited for multi-station processes and advanced use cases such as machine tending with robots on mobile bases, where coordination and reusability are critical. Faster deployment and lower engineering cost: by reducing programming complexity and setup time, the platform enables automation also for SMEs and for applications that are currently not economically viable with traditional solutions.

Integration and adaptability in manufacturing environments

The solution is designed for easy integration into existing manufacturing processes, allowing companies to introduce automation without major changes to current production lines. It is highly customizable, enabling adaptation to specific workflows, part variants, tooling, and station constraints. The platform is compatible with common industrial technologies, including robot arms, grippers, vision systems, machine tools/CNC stations, and flexible multi-station layouts (including mobile robot-based setups).

Implementation support and training for manufacturers

Support during implementation We provide structured support to ensure a smooth and successful deployment, including: system setup and integration into the existing production environment configuration of workflows, stations, and process parameters assistance with robot, gripper, and perception system commissioning on-site or remote troubleshooting during ramp-up validation of performance, safety constraints, and cycle-time targets Post-implementation support After deployment, we continue supporting customers through: maintenance and continuous improvement assistance updates, bug fixes, and feature upgrades remote diagnostics and technical support support for adding new parts, stations, or process variants over time Training programs and resources Yes. We offer training and enablement resources to help customers maximize value, including: operator and technician training sessions advanced training for engineers and integrators documentation, best-practice guides, and example workflows support for building internal autonomy in reconfiguring and scaling the solution

Sustainability, compliance and certifications in the EU

The solution is designed to be compatible with EU regulatory and industrial compliance requirements typically applicable to robotics and manufacturing automation. In particular, it supports implementation in environments that must comply with relevant EU frameworks such as machinery safety, workplace safety, and industrial risk assessment procedures. Since the platform is a software layer integrated into larger robotic systems, full compliance is achieved at the level of the complete deployed automation cell (robot + peripherals + safety system + integration), in line with standard industrial practice.
