Robotics and Automation

Robotics and automation have become essential for modern businesses looking to stay competitive in today's fast-paced and ever-changing world. Automation involves the use of technology to minimize human input, which in turn maximizes the reliability and efficiency of many tasks. It encompasses different levels, from basic digitization and streamlining of work processes to advanced integration of machines or robots that replace human actions.

At the most basic level, automation can mean introducing a shared digital filing system that users can all access, which streamlines the process of accessing and storing information. Process automation, on the other hand, focuses on business processes, such as entering data directly into a digital source instead of recording it on paper and entering it digitally later. This approach not only makes data collection more efficient but also provides additional business insights.

Integration automation involves using machines or robots to contribute to or replace human actions. This may take the form of a conveyor belt that transfers material from one area to another or a robot that arranges pre-cut lumber in a programmed pattern to build a truss. Regardless of the level of automation, the goal is to improve efficiency and productivity while reducing human error.

First Steps Towards Automation

If you're considering introducing automation into your business, the first step should be to conduct an Automation Assessment.

Discuss Your Automation Goals

Our automation experts meet with you to discuss your goals with automation and assess your facility and functions

Collect Data

We photograph and catalog your facility and existing equipment and build a 3D model (a digital twin) of your facility.

Catalog and Roadmap

A comprehensive catalog of your current equipment will be put together. Our experts then develop a customized automation roadmap for your facility and goals, backed by extensive research and industry experience.
