Robotics & automation prototyping and manufacturing with KIXENER
At KIXENER, we provide robotics and automation customers with rapid prototyping and services like CNC machining and Injection Molding. Our expert team has the knowledge and skills to help bring new product concepts to life.
What kind of robotics & automation parts can we make?
The robotics and automation industry requires a wide range of parts made from both metals and plastics. Typical priorities include:
- Tight tolerances for critical parts and complex assemblies
- Low-friction parts that can perform repetitive movements
- Excellent quality control via on-machine inspection and/or CMM
Difference between robotics and automation
The robotics and automation industries are closely linked. Automation is a broader category that describes the use of machines, computers, and other equipment to perform tasks that would otherwise need to be carried out by human workers. Robotics, on the other hand, is the use of physical robots to perform physical tasks. Robotics and automation often go hand in hand, as in industrial manufacturing. As a specialist in the prototyping of physical components, KIXENER receives many orders for robotics components — but we can also manufacture automation parts.
Robotics & automation manufacturing processes

3D PrintingCutting-edge additive manufacturing for metal or plastic parts.
Sheet Metal FabricationLaser cutting, bending, stamping, punching and welding.Robotics & automation manufacturing possibilities
In the robotics industry, most robotic systems typically require a rugged, sturdy frame that allows the system to perform a range of useful mechanical motions. At KIXENER, we can use our range of manufacturing processes and reliable materials to make high-quality metal parts like frames, shoulder joints, and gears.
An end effector or end of arm tooling (EOAT) often requires several complex and intricate components that work together to allow the robot to grip, pick, cut, or do whatever it is tasked with doing. Prototyping robotic end effectors is an important stage in the development of a robotic system.
KIXENER is equipped to make casings, housings, tubing, and other important components for robotic assemblies. Made from plastic or metal, these parts can be used to house structural elements, as well as mechanical and electronic components.
