When Labor Is Hard to Find, Standard Bots Cobots Keep Production Moving
Collaborative Robots Built for Real-World Manufacturing — Reliable, Safe, and Easy to Deploy
Whether you’re assembling products, packaging materials, or managing small-batch production, meeting demand has never been more challenging. That’s why TMMI partners with Standard Bots to deliver a new generation of collaborative robots (cobots) designed to make automation simple, cost-effective, and accessible for any production environment.
Standard Bots cobots provide industrial-grade performance without the complexity or expense of traditional robotic systems. They’re built for teams that need dependable, on-floor support — not another system to maintain.
Why Choose Standard Bots Cobots
- Fast ROI: Affordable systems that often pay for themselves in under 12 months.
- Easy to Use: Intuitive drag-and-drop programming with no coding required.
- Built to Last: High precision and reliability for industrial environments.
- Safe by Design: Certified for human collaboration with no cages needed.
- Flexible & Scalable: Easily move, reprogram, or expand as your needs grow.
Tackle Labor and Productivity Challenges with Confidence
Staffing shortages, fatigue, and missed deadlines can slow production to a crawl. Cobots fill the gaps by taking on repetitive, high-volume, or ergonomically demanding tasks—so your team can stay focused on higher-value work that drives results.
Common Applications
Machine Tending
Loading and unloading CNC machines is repetitive and physically demanding. Standard Bots cobots handle these cycles with precision, freeing operators to focus on higher-value work. With quick-change grippers and safety-rated sensors, they keep multiple machines running efficiently and without downtime.
Palletizing
Whether stacking outgoing products or unloading inbound pallets, Standard Bots cobots automate repetitive motion with consistency and accuracy. They reduce strain injuries, improve throughput, and maintain a compact footprint that fits easily into existing floor space.
Pick and Place / Kitting
Perfect for repetitive part handling, sorting, or packaging, Standard Bots cobots transfer components between stations with speed and precision. Built-in vision and adaptive grippers handle various shapes and materials without constant supervision, ensuring smooth, reliable operation.
Case Packing / Packaging
From carton forming to final box loading, Standard Bots cobots manage packaging tasks with speed and consistency. They adapt easily to product changes, helping manufacturers handle high-mix, low-volume production without major reprogramming.
Welding Automation
From tack welds to long seams, Standard Bots cobots integrate smoothly with MIG and TIG systems to deliver high-quality, consistent welds. Their intuitive programming and torch integration make automation accessible to shops of any size, without the complexity of traditional systems.
Inspection / Metrology / Vision QA
Equipped with advanced cameras and sensors, Standard Bots cobots perform high-precision inspections with repeatable accuracy. They track tolerances, surface quality, and alignment in real time, reducing defects and improving traceability across production.
Automation in Days, Not Months
With TMMI and Standard Bots, automation doesn’t take months to deliver results. Our cobots are quick to install, easy to program, and fully supported by our local integration experts. Most systems are up and running within days, driving measurable improvements in productivity, consistency, and labor efficiency.
