UK distributor for Spin Robotics’ end of arm tooling
Applied Automation has signed a sole UK distribution agreement with Danish collaborative robotics specialist, Spin Robotics, which has developed affordable and easy to use ‘plug-and-produce’, end-of-arm, screwdriving tools for assembly applications using collaborative robots.
Headquartered in Odense, the robotics capital of Denmark, Spin Robotics has already sold its screwdriving solution to over 33 new distributors throughout Europe in just five months, and is now looking to expand its sales following a major investment and backing by REInvest Robotics.
Esben Hallundboek Ostergaard, CEO at REInvest and former co-founder of the leading Danish robot manufacturer Universal Robots, stated: “Over the years, I have visited many manufacturing companies throughout the world and have often seen the need to automate one-sided repetitive assembly work, including screwdriving tasks. Spin Robotics has developed the right solutions for this, by achieving increased quality and less wear and tear on the assembly worker in a way that is both safe and flexible.”
David Rowe, managing director of Plymouth-based Applied Automation, is delighted to add Spin Robotics solutions to its growing range of high-quality industrial automation products which are supported and sold through its technical distribution division based in Cardiff. “We are proud and delighted to be appointed as the sole UK Distributor for Spin Robotics,” he said.
“The projected growth of collaborative robots is set to surge and a major benefit for companies is their ROI efficiency. Adding a screwdriving system fits really well with our existing collaborative and industrial robot portfolio offerings. Assembly applications, within intelligent manufacturing environments, where both employees and machines share tasks will be key to boosting productivity, value and job satisfaction in the future,” he concluded.
Kristoffer Hansen, chief sales officer at Spin Robotics, is delighted to add Applied Automation to their distributor network: “We are seeing a high demand for our product in the UK market – a market that is ready for this solution, and the automation of screwdriving processes,” he said.
“For some time, we have been looking to appoint a sole distributor in the UK – one that shares our ethos and has the level of technical knowledge to support our end users locally,” he continued. “We believe we’ve found this in Applied Automation. We are confident that with their experience of the UK market, this collaboration will prove to be mutually beneficial to both our companies and also to all our UK end users in the future.”
