We makeAutomaton of
Surface Processing &
Quality Inspection
Intuitive & Accessible

We do so through our software platforms for robots. Our platforms adopt human skills - and adapt them into robotic automation of surface processing and surface quality inspection. We give skilled workers the control of the process results, and the ability to do new robot programmes as often as needed.

We wish to play a leading role in ensuring manufacturing industries will keep their processing know-how and be able to scale productions in a safe and sustainable way despite the increasing global labor shortage. With our strong global alliances of robotic solution providers, we offer a wide range of customised solutions within surface processing and quality inspection.

Nordbo Robotics creates value both in manual and traditionally automated productions

Challenges we solve

Manual work

Currently more than 90%

Consistency

Faulty manual processing can lead to scrapped parts and inconsistent use of abrasives. Meeting tolerances and achieving high uniformity is difficult with manual work.

Safety requirements

Some companies struggle to provide protective equipment and proper ventilation. Processing work can cause serious long-term injuries.

Labor Shortages

Companies worldwide struggle to find skilled labor for processing tasks.

Part inspection

Low repeatability from manual processing increases time spent on quality control.

Traditional automation

Currently less than 10%

Complex

Existing automation solutions require significant time for setup and worker training. programming and reprogramming require specialized knowledge or external support.

High Cost

Extensive setups are expensive and take up a lot of space.

Inflexible

Some automation solutions rely on 3D files that may not match part tolerances. Current solutions are designed for mass production and may not handle new parts easily. current setups are unsuitable for high mix/low volume production due to lengthy programming and reprogramming times.

Nordbo solutions

Assure consistent quality output and ROI

Reduction in scrap rate and wasted material can save companies money in the long run and reduce the need for costly rework.
