OK, you have decided that you want to investigate the potential automation of your factory. You are an expert at your process but not in robotics. You need to find robotic expertise but don’t know where to start.
Robotic Integrator Directory links (for the Americas):
- Robotic Industries Association (RIA) directory - The RIA is a hub for everything happening in industrial robotics in the Americas. Their directory is populated by its members. You can search by geography and quickly see where an integrator's specialty lies.
- Robot manufacturers' integrator networks
Most all of the top robot manufacturers supply a network of integrators that can be easily accessed to help integrate their products. In most cases, you can search by geography and/or industry expertise. Examples include:
- Directory sites or portal sites also exist that show integrators by territory
If you are starting to look at robotics for the first time, it might also be worth reading “Common application problems” and “How to Hold an Integrator Accountable to Deliver.”
