Every sector is automating
Which sectors use CNC Automation, and why?
Our customers are active in a wide range of sectors and industries. Our robots are used not only by suppliers, but also by companies in machine construction, agriculture, plastics, pharmaceuticals and the production of tools for CNC machines. Every day, you see or use a product that one of our robots has worked on. RoboJob’s automation solutions are used to make the most diverse machines, devices and products: from high-tech parts for satellites, aircraft or wind turbines to screens, smartphones or the fitting for a lamp.
How is CNC Automation used in machine construction?
Many RoboJob customers build machines or equipment. Both local and international companies construct the most diverse machines. Some have as many as 15 or 20 RoboJob automation systems in use across different factories. Others are local niche players bringing unique innovations to life. Whatever their size, all these machine and equipment builders have one thing in common: they rely on RoboJob to keep production running.
What does CNC Automation have to do with agriculture?
More than you might think! Several RoboJob customers build machines that are used in the agricultural sector, and automation is a crucial link in the production of such machines. Technology has never been as important in agriculture as it is today, and not everyone is aware of how much innovation there is in the sector. As a result, agricultural companies have grown into professional businesses with a passionate manager at the helm.
Why do suppliers and subcontractors automate their CNC machines?
The majority of our customers are suppliers and subcontractors: a crucial link in the supply chain of countless companies. Like no other, they know the challenges of an international market. The pressure to remain competitive and profitable is immense, and so is the pressure to deliver quickly at razor-sharp prices.
That can also be felt in the workplace. Either it’s very busy and you’re short of time and hands, or orders are delayed, which causes stress and uncertainty. Thanks to our robots, peace and quiet can return to the workplace and you increase your return. RoboJob itself originated from a supplier: at our sister company, we have experienced for ourselves just how challenging it is to find good operators, remain competitive and deliver quickly.
Can plastic parts be machined automatically?
Machining plastics is rather different from machining metals: turning or milling plastics is something very specific. In this sector too, RoboJob solutions are widely used to increase efficiency and spindle hours. Our customers rely on RoboJob to automate the turning and milling of parts in different types of plastic. Thanks to our extensive portfolio of CNC Automation solutions, we have already supported many small, medium-sized and international customers in the production of plastic components and products.
Why do pharmaceutical and medical manufacturers choose CNC Automation?
Quality has the highest priority in the pharmaceutical and medical sector, including in the production of mechanical components, products and equipment. That is why many manufacturers and suppliers in this sector are going for CNC Automation and count on RoboJob to achieve the highest possible quality. We owe this to the high reliability and precision of our systems.
How do tool manufacturers deal with smaller batch sizes?
Many well-known suppliers of tools and accessories for CNC machines use RoboJob robots to produce their own products efficiently and profitably. They too have to limit their stocks to keep costs under control. This means that batch sizes are falling and that production has to switch quickly from one product to another.
With the Tower, we offer a real all-rounder that is extremely suitable for this high-mix, low-volume production. Plus, the set-up and changeover times of our other automation solutions are also the shortest on the market.
