We just wrapped up an amazing four days at Automate 2025 in Detroit, and wow, what a week it was! From May 12 to 15, we set up shop at booth #400, ready to showcase some of our most exciting innovations, and the response we got from visitors blew us away.
Whether it was people stopping by out of curiosity, engineers diving deep into how our systems work, or longtime partners catching up with our team, the energy at the booth never slowed down. And honestly? We loved every minute of it.
A Closer Look at What We Showcased
We brought two of our latest automation solutions to the show floor, and they got plenty of attention:
The Archimedes Automated Screwdriving Platform
The High-Risk Test Bench
Both were running live demos during the event. People could see how smooth and fast Archimedes was when handling complex screwdriving, and how the Test Bench tackled demanding tasks with precision and built-in safety features. We had a ton of great conversations with manufacturers who are looking to speed up production and improve quality, and many of them saw the potential of these systems right away.
Powered by Collaboration
Our booth wouldn’t have been what it was without the help of our technology partners. We were proud to team up with:
- Doosan Robotics
- FANUC America Corporation
- ViscoTec
- OnRobot
- LinMot USA
From robotics and motion control to precision dispensing and end-of-arm tooling, these partners helped us bring the full experience to life. Visitors got to see what’s possible when cutting-edge components come together in one flexible, customisable platform.
Build-Your-Own Robot? Yes, That Happened
One of the most talked-about experiences at our booth was the Build-Your-Own RND Robot Model station. Visitors got to create their own mini robot from interchangeable parts, choosing arms, tubing, grippers, and more. It was quick, fun, and totally hands-on.
What made it special was how it sparked real conversations. People started thinking: “What would this look like in my factory?” And that’s exactly the kind of interaction we love playful, but packed with purpose.
You can still build your own model online if you missed it in person:

Swag, Smiles, and So Many Great Conversations
Of course, it wouldn’t be a trade show without a few giveaways. Our RND hats, tool organizers, and custom screwdriving bits were a hit, and they helped kick off some great conversations. People stuck around, asked questions, and we’re already lining up follow-up calls with some exciting new leads.
Thank You, Detroit
To everyone who visited us. Thank you for making Automate 2025 such a big success.
To our partners, your support helped us put on a booth we’re truly proud of.
We came to Detroit to showcase what’s possible in automation, and left feeling inspired by all the conversations we had. Here’s to what comes next!
