Robotics
What it covers
Which tasks could a robot reliably take on in our operations?
We assess where physical robots can usefully take on work in production, logistics and supporting operations. The starting point is the task, the working environment, safety and economics, not a particular type of robot. The result is prioritised use cases, a business case with documented assumptions and a pilot that tests the critical assumptions under real conditions.
When companies bring us in
- Recurring physical tasks consume capacity, or workstations place ergonomic strain on people.
- Integrator proposals are on the table, but there is no basis of your own for comparing solutions and assumptions.
- Humanoid robots are under discussion, and a sober view of what is realistic today is missing.
From task to cell
We start with the task and its surroundings, not with the robot. Each stage tests assumptions before the next investment is made.
Analyse the task
On site, we capture the workflow, cycle time, variants, material flow and typical disruptions. These become measurable requirements for a solution.
Compare options
We compare approaches ranging from conventional automation to collaborative, mobile or humanoid robots. Value, effort and risk are set side by side with documented assumptions.
Simulate and design
Where useful, layout, reach and cycle time are tested in a simulation. Integration partners are compared against a shared requirements catalogue.
Pilot cell
A limited cell runs under real conditions against criteria agreed in advance. Safety requirements and the risk assessment are clarified with the responsible specialists.
Handover to operations
Maintenance, troubleshooting, staff training and metrics are defined. Only then is the decision on further cells made.
