Automated loading and unloading of CNCs, presses, and molders so your machines keep cutting around the clock.
Robots load and unload your CNCs, presses, and molders through breaks, lunches, and lights-out shifts, turning idle spindle time into parts.
We design the cell around your part and process, then build, program, and install it with in-house controls engineering and local support.
Send us the machine and the part. We'll tell you the robot, the cost, and the payback.
CSM Robotics builds robotic machine tending cells for CNC, press, and injection-molding operations across Minnesota and the Upper Midwest. From our shop in Ham Lake, MN, we integrate FANUC, Kawasaki, and Universal Robots to load and unload machines for lights-out, unattended production.
CNC lathes and mills, stamping and forming presses, injection molding machines, grinders, and inspection stations. CSM Robotics sizes the robot, gripper, and part presentation around your existing machines and cycle time.
No. Machine tending cells run attended or unattended. Many manufacturers start with one operator overseeing several machines, then extend to lights-out shifts as confidence grows.
Cost depends on the robot, gripper, machine interface, and safety scope. See our machine tending cost guide for the drivers and how to estimate payback.
CSM Robotics serves Minneapolis, St. Paul, Rochester, Duluth, St. Cloud, and manufacturers across Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and the Dakotas from our shop in Ham Lake, MN.
