It’s a golden opportunity to automate small-series manufacturing. The Project Produce in Sweden developed an automation guide for flexible automation.

We at OpiFlex have done many studies at companies both through Robotlyftet, but also to big companies. Do you also want help to see the possibilities of automating small-series manufacturing? We do this based on your product mix and your prerequisites to automate. Additionally, we use the estimated productivity increase and what increase in the contribution margin it gives.
