Automation in CNC machining aims to increase productivity, reduce loading times, minimize errors and downtime, and thereby improve overall efficiency. Automated loading processes with robotic arms allow personnel to be utilized more efficiently—for example, by preparing upcoming jobs while the current part is processed autonomously.
Benefit from our ProCobots® automation system. We support you in automating your CNC machining center—quickly and efficiently.
*Based on machine hourly rate: €50
Machine operation: Mon–Fri 06:00–18:00, Sat 07:00–13:00
12 hours of downtime = approx. €600/day
5-day week = €3,000/week → €120,000/year
The ProCobots® robotic arm is compatible with a wide range of HURCO® machines—from compact 3-axis mills to powerful 5-axis machining centers and flexible CNC lathes. The result: greater efficiency across your entire production setup.
In addition to the annual revenue potential, you also benefit from an attractive introductory discount when automating your HURCO® machine with ProCobots®. Our sales experts will create a customized automation package to get you started with autonomous CNC manufacturing—cost-efficient and future-ready.
Automation means using digital processes and mechanical technologies to increase efficiency and productivity in machining.
Once the machining program is created via conversational input or G-code, including tool data and cutting parameters, even complex parts can be manufactured automatically.
With integrated hardware such as robotic arms, the material flow can be automated—loading raw parts and unloading finished components without manual intervention.
Companies aiming for a competitive edge increasingly rely on automation solutions—especially with the ongoing shortage of skilled labor. Robotic modules such as CNC robotic arms can take over repetitive tasks, enhancing flexibility and productivity. Automating the loading of milling or turning machines enables high throughput with minimal manual effort.
