Problem
In the agro-industrial sector, variability is the norm: every product, season, and production line differs, making standard automation solutions inadequate. This complexity leads to operational inefficiencies and repetitive, low-value-added tasks that burden producers and limit their competitiveness.
Solution
Conkreta Robotics develops customized automation systems for the agro-food and fruit-vegetable sectors, integrating robotics, artificial vision, and control software. The company analyzes client production flows to identify and eliminate non-value-added activities, replacing repetitive physical labor with robotic precision. Their flexible, reconfigurable cobots can be easily adapted to new processes, handling short batches with high product mix without altering the production layout. This approach improves productivity, product quality, and resource utilization while reducing waste, making production processes more efficient, stable, and sustainable.
Target Audience
Primary customers are Consortia, Producer Organizations (OPs), agricultural companies, and other players in the fruit-vegetable and agro-food sectors seeking to evolve their production processes through advanced automation.
