Congratulations to ERNE AG for receiving the prestigious Schweighofer Prize 2017 in the category Innovation for the portal robot WoodFlex 56.

ROB Technologies is proud to support this project with our WoodFlex Software. The software is the heart of the portal robot, encompassing an off- and online control, including, configuration, simulation, collision detection and visualisation of the robotic System.

It operates directly of BTLx input data, the industry standard CAD interchange format for timber construction, framing and carpentry. Thereby, enabling an immediate connection between the shop drawings and the robotic control and eliminating the need to re-programme the machine for every new fabrication task.

ROB Technologies is a guest speaker at this years Forum for Robot Assisted Assmebly at Fraunhofer IPA in Stuttgart.

Automated assembly is subject to dynamic and diverse challenges. Limitations, such as small lot sizes, many product variants, short cycle times, the lowest possible prices, easy set-up and conversion, and, last but not least, the integration of people with their abilities and knowledge must be considered in practice.

ROB Technologies will exhibit at the Swiss Robotics Industry Day at the SwissTech Convention Centre in Lausanne.
The Swiss Robotics Industry Day is a one-day annual conference exclusively designed for industry to showcase the activities of NCCR Robotics and selected Swiss start-ups active in the field of robotics through a series of technology demonstrations, posters and discussions.

ROB Technologies develops software solutions that empower our clients to adapt their robotic processes easily and quickly to new production tasks, regardless of any programming knowledge. At Automatica we will demonstrate the software in combination with an UR-robot. Depending on the application, we will showcase how the robot can be controlled directly via pre-existing CAD-data, via a graphical user interface, or via direct manual manipulation. 

Co-operation and intuitive operation are two strong themes among AUTOMATICA exhibitors this year. Read what ROB Technologies told "Robotics Tomorrow" on what to expect at their exhibition booth in Munich from June 21 to 24.

ROB Technologies was invited to speak at the conference on Applied Robotics in Art and Design, organised by HyperWerk, part of the institute for post industrial design at the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Northwestern Switzerland.

Congratulations to Buzzi studio di architettura for winning the 2016 Architizer A+Award in the category Architecture+Prefab with their project Residenza Le Stelle located in Locarno, Switzerland. The 3’370 m2 of non-standard brick façade was designed and robotically fabricated using BrickDesign.
