Production · Prague

We don't resell robots. We make them.

From flat sheet to a finished robot on our own floor in Prague, with one machine from the leader in each process. The electronics are ours too: we design the control boards and program the chips on them.

And the machines we build them with

Sheet metal is punched and bent, parts are machined, welded by a laser on a robot arm and printed in production-grade nylon. One machine from the leader in each process, run by the people who design the robots.
