Machine Tending

Machines keep running. Always.

Machine tending is at the heart of many production operations — and one of the biggest bottleneck factors. Waiting times caused by missing operators cost capacity every day. A cobot takes over loading and unloading reliably.

↑ OEE
Maximum machine uptime
No waiting for an operator. The cobot loads automatically and keeps the cycle.
1 : N
Tend multiple machines
One cobot can tend several machines in sequence. One employee supervises everything.
0 risk
No injury risk
Hot parts, sharp edges, tight machine spaces — the cobot takes over.
Typical use cases
  • Loading and unloading CNC machining centers
  • Injection molding machines: removing and placing parts
  • Automatically feeding presses and stamping machines
  • Loading lathes with raw material
  • Automatically loading cleaning systems
What it solves for you
  • No more unplanned machine downtime
  • Skilled workers focus on value-adding tasks
  • Lower unit costs through higher utilization
  • Unmanned night shifts become possible
  • Fast changeover when switching products
Efficiency gains

Automated machine tending typically increases OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) by 15–30% and enables unmanned late and night shifts.
