Problem
Industrial robotics deployments often require extensive programming expertise, rigid safety barriers, and lengthy risk-assessment processes, which slow down integration and limit flexibility. Manufacturers and integrators struggle to adapt robot systems to changing layouts, product variations, and human-robot collaboration scenarios without incurring high engineering costs and downtime.
Solution
Botfellows offers a modular suite of automation tools that combine robotics, safety, and AI into production-ready systems. Their RobCraft framework enables no-code robot teaching with AI/computer vision and 2D/3D sensor-guided workflows, allowing users to generate process-aligned trajectories for complex geometries and variable parts. Dynamic Safety provides adaptive monitoring and smart safety logic that calculates minimum safety distances in real time, enabling safe human-robot collaboration without fixed fences. SafetyTwin supports dynamic risk assessment and AI-powered planning, helping teams document, review, and improve safety concepts as production environments evolve. Together, these solutions reduce integration complexity, minimize robot downtime, and accelerate commissioning for industrial applications.
Target Audience
Primary customers are system integrators seeking to reduce integration complexity, robotics OEMs aiming to accelerate innovation cycles, and manufacturers looking to increase production efficiency and adaptability in industries such as automotive, electronics, food and beverage, logistics, pharma, and metal machinery.
