Vention & ABB Robotics
Vention partners ABB Robotics.
Vention partners ABB Robotics to combine the capabilities of the Vention Manufacturing Automation Platform and ABB GoFa cobot family. Through this collaboration, small and medium-sized companies will gain access to cobot automation solutions, with users being able to integrate the duo’s technologies throughout the manufacturing process.
ABB is set to gain access to a broader range of DIY automation clients through this partnership, while Vention can enhance its offering by utilising ABB’s robotic solutions.
“We are thrilled to welcome ABB to the Vention ecosystem. ABB and Vention have a multi-year track record of collaboration across Europe and North America spanning multiple business areas from Electrification to Robotics and Discrete Automation,” said Etienne Lacroix, Founder and Chief Executive Officer at Vention. “This collaboration enhances our ability to provide democratised and powerful automation solutions.”
Andrea Cassoni, Head of Collaborative Robotics at ABB Robotics, added, “Partnering with Vention represents a significant step forward for both companies. This collaboration combines ABB's advanced cobot portfolio with Vention's expertise in application design and deployment. By merging our hardware and software capabilities, we are making robotic automation more accessible and easier to integrate for businesses of all sizes. Our joint efforts will address key industry trends and help companies improve their operations, making workplaces safer and more efficient.”
ABB’s GoFa robots, now available on the Vention marketplace, provide manufacturers with proven cobots with payloads ranging from 5 kg to 12 kg. These solutions are known for their safety, ease of use, and performance levels. Now, the robots are compatible with all of Vention's platform, including MachineBuilder (design), MachineLogic (robot programming), MachineAnalytics (operations monitoring & data) and Remote Support (on-demand support).
