Co-founder Matt Bush is stepping into the role of CEO as we continue building technology that makes automation more accessible for manufacturers everywhere.
Onward. 🚀
Modern cobots deploy in hours, not months. One marine fabricator paid for their entire system with a single order. But speed doesn't mean skipping strategy. See what you should be asking yourself at the link in comments
We caught up with Gary Kowalski from our new partner FANUC to talk about our new Cobot Painter, which uses the CRX painting cobot – the only collaborative robot certified for hazardous painting environments.
✅ Powered by Beacon software to control the painting process
✅ Compatible with powder coating for small, medium, and large applications
✅ Easy to teach, easy to use, and fast to implement
We’re proud to partner with FANUC to make painting automation more accessible than ever.
Anyone can show off a cobot; not everyone can show off Beacon✨
👉 “It makes good welders lazy.” – Mike Hill, Big Rocks Engineering
👉 “We dropped it right into our welding cells, and it helped inexperienced welders do better.” – Chris Solloggi, Victaulic
That’s why shops don’t just buy one; they come back for more.
Day 3 #FABTECH has been one for the books!
💪 Empower your team, don’t replace them.
Chris Solloggi of Victaulic Company shows how a cobot welder transformed their shop: helping newer welders weld flanges, tack parts, and reduce errors — all while scaling production. The first cobot worked so well, they added a bigger one.
Automation that lifts your people, not replaces them.
