Machine Tending/Part Transfer

The CR2000 from Acieta features an intuitive touchscreen HMI for easy setup, can tend two machines, offers versatile EOAT configurations, and allows safe human intervention.

Robust, mobile automation system featuring the FANUC CRX-10iA cobot. It enhances CNC machine tool operations with easy integration and high safety standards

FastLOAD Automates machine tending, boosting productivity with easy programming and mobile flexibility. Compact design saves space and costs, ideal for high-mix, low-volume production.

M-Tend is Matrix’s standard collaborative machine tending cell built on the FANUC CRX-20iA/L robot to pick, tend, wash, blow off, and stage parts within a compact enclosed workstation. It uses dual Schunk electric grippers, quick-change fingers, part staging nests, a wash dunk tank, and a blow-off station to create a continuous, repeatable production process from raw part loading to finished part staging.

Compact, Collaborative CNC Automation—Now With DrawersThe CRX CNC Tending Drawer System from Vention is a collaborative automation cell designed to streamline CNC machine loading and unloading for small‑ to medium‑sized parts. Built around a FANUC CRX collaborative robot and Vention’s engineered drawer system, this solution delivers consistent, unattended machine tending in a compact footprint—without turning your shop floor into a science experiment.This system is ideal for manufacturers looking to automate repetitive CNC operations while maintaining flexibility, safety, and fast deployment.How It WorksThe CRX cobot picks raw stock from a fixed pickup location on the top work plate.The robot engages the drawer handle and opens a drawer.Raw material is placed into the open drawer.The drawer is closed and the CNC process runs.After machining, the robot opens the drawer, retrieves the finished part, and places it back onto the top work plate.The cycle repeats—reliably, consistently, and without complaining about overtime.

The BakerMate™ is a portable cobot platform designed to automate common bakery tasks with speed, safety, and precision. Built with hygienic, food-grade design and simple, recipe-driven changeovers, it helps bakers maximize efficiency, reduce waste, and adapt quickly to changing production demands.

Designed as a compact, mobile automation platform, SmartLoad helps manufacturers increase spindle uptime, reduce manual handling, and achieve consistent output without the complexity typically associated with robotic integration.

Cobot Combos simplify automation by pairing the right FANUC CRX robot with tailored services—programming, tooling, installation, and support.

VersaBuilt Mill Automation with ZPS enables fast, repeatable CNC changeovers using robotic tending and zero-point fixturing for high-mix, low-volume production.

The AutoCart is a robotic machine tending solution can be integrated with your existing machine tool. This automation cart is designed to roll up to any machine tool and run it as an operator would, allowing your company to increase production through “lights out manufacturing”.

ROBOTEND Lite is a compact, standardized CNC machine tending system developed for high-mix job shops with limited floor space, tight labor availability, and no time for complex integration.

The Job Shop Cell Collaborative  is an innovative collaborative robotic automation solution designed by Methods to allow easy loading and unloading of parts into your machine tools.This system will enable machine shops to start introducing automated CNC machining solutions without making a large investment or purchasing new machine tools for the shop.
