ABOUT THE COOPERATION

Through a collaboration between automation company KUKA Nordic and OEM Automatic, KUKA's cobots will be efficiently distributed in Sweden, Finland and the Baltics.

"With KUKA in our palette of suppliers, our customers get access to cobots from a world-leading robot manufacturer", says Marko Salovaara, CEO of OEM Finland.

"The agreement means that our presence will increase significantly in the Nordic market", says Joacim Lorentsson, CEO of KUKA Nordic.

STRATEGIC AGREEMENT THAT GIVES MOMENTUM TO SALES

The agreement between OEM Automatic and KUKA Nordic gives a real boost to sales.

"OEM Automatic has a strong representation in the market and well-developed marketing and sales channels. With their help, we gain further momentum to grow in the Nordic and Baltic markets", says Joacim Lorentsson.

Cobots are also perfectly suited for distribution via an external partner, as they are a type of robot that does not require programming skills. Instead, the robot learns the movements by the operator moving it with their hands.

"KUKA's collaborative LBR iisy robots complement our other offerings very well", says Marko Salovaara.

"We have chosen to cooperate with an experienced company with great competence and which we are happy to deal with. Now OEM Automatic will be our extended arm in the market and I see this as a very long-term relationship", says Joacim Lorentsson.

With successful investments in energy efficiency and software adapted to industries at the forefront of technology, the company is well established in a variety of segments: automotive, electronics, food, medicine, logistics and e-commerce, among others. It is headquartered in Augsburg, Germany.

"KUKA Nordic is a player that we know well and have only good experiences with. They deliver robots and software that are absolutely top class, and the contract with them is strategically important and successful for us," says Marko Salovaara.

COBOTS - A NATURAL PART OF THE FUTURE OF INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION AND OUR PRODUCT RANGE

Industrial automation has faced an impressive evolution in recent years, and in the midst of this technological revolution, robotics has emerged as an integral part of the development. Therefore, the introduction of cobots in our range is a natural step and a proof of our commitment to provide our customers with the latest automation solutions on the market. 

VALUABLE SYNERGIES BETWEEN HUMAN EXPERTISE AND ROBOTICS.

Cobots offer a unique opportunity to combine human expertise with modern robotics. This approach not only streamlines the production process but also marks a shift towards innovation and new thinking.

INCREASING QUALITY AND SAFETY

The future will definitely include more cobots. Cobots not only enable smoother and more adaptable production lines, but also provide an increase in quality and safety. By offering this advanced technology, we confirm our commitment to delivering solutions that meet the growing demands of the industry.
