Published purpose

This project aims to advance in-house automation capabilities by designing and implementing an automated finishing cell of the firm's product lines. Through the addition and programming of an existing industrial robot, the initiative will enhance part quality consistency and reduce manual handling risks. This knowledge will serve as the foundation for replicating automation across additional cells and ultimately developing market-ready foundry automation solutions, contributing to a scalable and commercially viable automated finishing system.
