Overview

Scaling with flexible automation can benefit your shop in a number of ways. You don't have to compromise production speed or efficiencies. On one hand, a flexible smart line offers high productivity, flexibility, and the capacity for high volumes of production for companies with a specific production mindset. On the other hand, a flexible smart job shop is designed for high-mix, low volume production. These setups include highly automated standalone machines that can operate independently or be easily connected for collaborative work. With just the flip of a switch, these machines transition seamlessly between standalone and connected operations, enhancing overall efficiency and adaptability.
