Capability: Robotic System Integration
FANUC Robotic System Integration for High-Performance Manufacturing
AEC designs and integrates purpose-built FANUC robotic cells for machine tending, material handling, inspection, and complex multi-axis automation, engineered to increase utilization, maximize throughput, and reduce labor dependency.
Industrial Robotic Integration Built Around Your Process
Robotic system integration is more than installing a robot arm. It’s designing a complete, production-ready cell that accounts for your part geometry, cycle time requirements, tooling, safety requirements, and long-term scalability, then commissioning it so it runs reliably from day one.
At AEC, we are a FANUC Authorized System Integrator with deep hands-on experience designing and building robotic cells that operate in real production environments. We don’t configure off-the-shelf packages. We engineer systems from the ground up, tailored to your application and your facility.
Whether you’re automating a single machining cell or integrating a multi-robot production line, AEC brings the mechanical, electrical, controls, and programming expertise to deliver a system that performs.
Robotic Automation Applications We Engineer
Machine Tending Automation
Automated load/unload of CNC machines, machining centers, and turning cells, reducing operator dependency and enabling lights-out or extended-run production.
Robotic Material Handling
End-to-end material movement, including part transfer, palletizing, de-palletizing, and bin picking, is engineered to keep production flowing without manual intervention.
Robotic Inspection and Vision Systems
Integrated vision-guided inspection cells that verify part quality, dimensions, and surface conditions in-process, reducing scrap and eliminating manual inspection bottlenecks.
Multi-Axis and Complex Automation Systems
High-complexity robotic cells involving coordinated motion, multiple end effectors, or integration with additional automation equipment — engineered for precision and repeatability.
Welding and Fabrication Automation
Robotic welding cells are designed for consistent weld quality, reduced cycle time, and improved arc-on time across high-volume and high-mix production environments.
The Manufacturing Challenges Robotic Integration Solves
Manufacturers turn to robotic integration when manual processes can no longer keep pace with production demands or when the risks of labor dependency become unsustainable.
A well-integrated robotic cell doesn’t just replace labor; it removes variability from the process and enables your equipment to run at its designed capacity.
Common drivers include:
- Labor shortages and turnover are making it difficult to staff machining cells consistently
- Inconsistent cycle times and quality caused by manual variation in load/unload or handling
- Underutilized equipment sitting idle between shifts or during changeovers
- Rising scrap rates tied to manual part handling or inspection gaps
- Throughput ceilings that can’t be broken without removing the human bottleneck
Our Robotic Integration Process
Discovery and Requirements
We start by understanding your production goals, part specifications, cycle time targets, facility constraints, and existing equipment so the system is engineered to your actual requirements.
Concept and Simulation
AEC develops a detailed system concept including robot selection, cell layout, end-of-arm tooling, and safety design. Where applicable, we use simulation to validate throughput and identify risks before hardware is committed.
Mechanical and Controls Design
Our engineering team designs the complete system’s structural components, fixturing, end effectors, and the control architecture that ties it all together.
Build and Integration
Systems are built and integrated in our facility, with controls programming, HMI development, and thorough testing completed before delivery to your floor.
Installation and Commissioning
AEC manages on-site installation, startup, and commissioning, including operator training and documentation, so your team is fully equipped to run the system.
Long-Term Support
We remain a resource after commissioning for troubleshooting, modifications, and future automation expansion.
