The production job
What enters the station, what must happen to it, and what defines an acceptable part?
INDUSTRIAL ROBOTICS / INTEGRATED WORKCELLS
Robotic cells, vision, and end-of-arm tooling designed around the production equipment you already trust.

COMPANY
The line comes first.
What we build
Vantor builds integrated robotic cells: arm, tooling, vision, guarding, and controls designed as one production system.
How we approach it
Start with the part, the operator, and the real bottleneck. Keep useful equipment in place, then automate only the work the cell can perform reliably.
WORKCELL EXPLORER
Build around the job.
Choose an application to see how the tooling, sensing, and line interfaces change with it.
SELECTED APPLICATION / HANDLE
Material handling
Move repeatable loads between fixed stations while keeping operators outside the guarded motion envelope.
- APPLICATION
- Machine tending and transfer
- TOOLING
- Part-specific pneumatic gripper
- SENSING
- Part-present and position checks
- LINE INTERFACE
- Guarding, PLC, and conveyors
Final cell design follows the parts, process, risk assessment, and site conditions.

Aerospace & Defense
Precision handling, drilling, and fabrication begin with the drawing, the fixture, and the inspection requirement.
INTEGRATION SEQUENCE
The robot is the middle of the job.
A useful cell begins with the production problem and ends with a safe handoff to the people who run it.
- 01
Understand
Observe the station, the operator sequence, part variation, and the point where work actually slows.
- 02
Plan
Define the task, cycle window, payload, reach, interfaces, and safety boundaries before choosing the arm.
- 03
Build
Engineer tooling, sensing, guarding, and controls around the parts and equipment already on the floor.
- 04
Integrate
Commission with production parts, prove normal and fault states, and tune the handoff between people and machines.
- 05
Support
Document recovery, train operators and maintenance staff, then review the cell as conditions change.
ENGINEERING INPUTS
Start with constraints.
These questions shape a credible workcell before any performance target is promised.
02
The operating window
What range of parts, payloads, reaches, cycle times, and environmental conditions must the cell handle?
03
The line interfaces
Which machines, controls, conveyors, inspection steps, and operator decisions must connect to the cell?
04
The risk assessment
Where can people enter, what can fail, and how should the system stop, recover, and return to production?

Start with the station that slows the line.
A real project would define the task, parts, cycle, safety, and handoff before a robot is selected.
