    APPLICATIONS OF CNC & LASER ROBOTICS. PRECISION, SPEED, AND CONSISTENCY

    Robotic systems engineered for accuracy and reliability. RI CNC & Laser Robotics automate every stage of the process, from raw material handling to final inspection, boosting uptime and reducing operator fatigue.

    CNC Machine Tending

    Robotic arms load and unload raw parts, manage fixtures, and remove finished components from milling machines, lathes, and machining centers.

    Example: A collaborative robot tending multiple CNC lathes, increasing throughput by 40% while freeing operators for quality inspection tasks.

     

    Laser Cutting & Engraving Automation

    Automated laser cells equipped with vision systems and precision alignment tools ensure consistent cutting quality, reduced material waste, and higher repeatability.

    Example: A compact robot feeding sheet metal into a laser cutter and stacking finished parts, operating continuously across shifts.

     

    Polishing, Deburring & Finishing

    Cobots equipped with adaptive force sensors can perform polishing, deburring, and grinding with consistent pressure and precision, reducing manual labor and ensuring uniform surface finishes.

    Example: A robotic arm equipped with a rotary tool automatically deburrs aluminum components before assembly.


    Part Inspection & Quality Control

    Integrated vision systems and measurement sensors enable real-time part verification directly on the production line, minimizing errors and ensuring compliance with strict tolerances.

    Example: Robots automatically inspect machined components, logging measurement data to the RiA platform for traceability and analytics.

     

    Tool & Material Handling

    Automate repetitive tool-changing or raw material transport tasks using mobile robots and conveyors connected to the RiA Ecosystem.

    Example: AMRs deliver raw stock to CNC machines and retrieve finished goods without human intervention.
