Working together to create flexible automation systems

Are you developing complex devices, machines or systems and want to open up new possibilities for your products with robotics? We offer you highly flexible robots and standardized automation modules that you can adapt to your needs.

From product development to attractive solutions

From laboratory technology to production systems and packaging solutions: Our robots can be integrated into a wide variety of systems and process chains. We develop, supply and support our products to reduce your development costs.

Thanks to central control via our operating system, the interaction of all product and process participants is secure. The entire system can be operated via the robot panel, making automation easier than ever for your customers.

Our platform approach as your added value

Modular hardware

  • Customize and expand the structure and design of our HORST robots according to your ideas
  • Combine a wide variety of standard automation modules from our product range or use them as a starting point for your own implementations

Modular software

  • Do you want to use your own software environment? No problem, you can transfer our software completely into your system so that your customers won't notice any difference
  • If you want to use the horstOS interface, the modular character ensures easy expandability and customizability

Direct line to development

  • Long communication channels are alien to us: talk directly to our developers and technicians so that you can get to implementation as quickly as possible
  • We develop together in short cycles so that customized solutions are guaranteed to meet your customers' requirements

From the idea to the finished product

We know that schedules in device and machine development are often tight. That's why we rely on transparent project management from the day we make contact until the solution is up and running for your customers.

Your request

Analysis & feasibility study

Group 104

Together, we evaluate how our modules or robot systems can meet your objectives. To do this, we develop an initial concept that addresses the most important requirements.

Concept development and proposal

Group 82

We create a clear, comprehensible concept including all costs and timelines. In doing so, we take into account scaling potential for a later increase in production volume.

Order

Design & Development

Group 88

After approval, we start with the detailed implementation. If necessary, we adapt the hardware or software individually to your product environment. Your team always has direct access to our experts.

Prototype & Validation

Group 86

We build a functional demo version or a prototype that you can test in your real environment. We adjust details until everything runs smoothly.

Series production

Group 64 (1)

As soon as the final configuration has been finalized, we accompany you during the production ramp-up and support you with certifications, documentation and the start of production if required.

After Market Care

We remain your point of contact even after the launch: spare parts, support, regular updates and maintenance contracts keep the automation running efficiently - for you and your end customers.

This transparent approach means that you always have clarity about the progress of the collaboration and ensure that the result is a reliable and long-term fit for your application.

Integration and interfaces: A perfect fit for your application

Whether laboratory automation, production cell or quality inspection - our solutions can be flexibly and securely embedded in almost any environment. We offer different security concepts and a wide range of interfaces to suit your customers processes.

horstOS is available to you either as a stand-alone operating system with all the comprehensive functions. Or you can fully integrate horstOS into your existing user interface. This means that users do not have to get used to an additional interface.

Scalable security and communication concepts

  • Security on demand: Whether space-saving compact cells or security laser scanners - we deliver solutions that fit your processes and compliance requirements exactly.

  • Versatile interfaces: TCP/IP, Profinet, Modbus/TCP and digital I/Os enable fast and smooth integration into existing structures. In addition to the primary interface (XML-RPC), which you can even use to control the robot completely externally if required, we support modern communication standards such as OPC UA, ROS and SILA. This makes integration into higher-level control systems or special industry solutions easy - and you remain flexible for future expansions and system updates.

Customizable software integration 

  • Internal or external control: Use horstOS as central, user-friendly control software or integrate the robot completely into your own system, for example via XML-RPC. This keeps your development and user interface tidy and you retain full control.

  • All-round flexibility for users: If processes, visualizations or data analyses need to be more closely interwoven with your application, we can adapt the robot workflow to your requirements. For example, your customers can start predefined robot programs directly in the existing machine software, while status messages and safety queries are displayed in real time in your user interface. The result: all-round flexible, high-performance and future-proof automation that guarantees both safety and ease of use.
