Machine/Tooling Selection

Integrated & Standalone 
Automation

ARMROID – A built-in robot inside the Okuma machine tool, handling part loading/unloading, chatter suppression, chip removal, and in-machine cleaning to keep operations running efficiently.

STANDROID – A standalone robot package designed for high-mix, low- to medium-volume production, offering simple robot operation, a compact footprint, and unified control through a single operation panel.

Machine/Tooling Selection

Material Handling Systems

Palletizing – Reduces setup time and scrap while enabling lights-out, unmanned operation.
Gantry (OGL) – Available in multiple configurations, including single/dual load or stacker setups, with optional turnover stations, gauges, or conveyors.
Bar Feeders – Wide range of sizes that integrate seamlessly with CNC lathes, supporting unmanned production.

Machine/Tooling Selection

Machine Monitoring & Productivity Tools

Machine Monitoring – Software-driven data collection that provides real-time insights into machine performance, helping optimize processes, improve utilization, and identify underperforming equipment. Visual dashboards can be accessed from the shop floor, office, or mobile devices because “If you can’t measure, you can’t improve.”
