Rivelin Robotics, Sheffield, UK, is set to showcase its automated solutions for metal Additive Manufacturing post-processing, casting and weld repair, at the upcoming Automatica event in Munich, Germany, June 27-30. Rivelin, announced as one of the winners of the Formnext Start-up Challenge in 2022, will demonstrate its NetShape Robots alongside its partner Yaskawa Europe on booth B6.502.

Richard Tontsch, Marketing Manager of the Robotics Division of Yaskawa Europe, commented, “Having Rivelin Robotics and their NetShape robotics system on our booth at Automatica allows us to showcase a highly innovative application with one of our robots. Since 3D printing of parts will continue to grow in importance as a manufacturing process, highlighting the automated post-printing options that are available with a robot is a topic that we believe will attract a great deal of interest on our stand during the event.”

Visitors to the booth will be able to view a fully operational NetShape automation cell: an enclosed micro-factory that combines an industrial Yaskawa robot equipped with an array of tools, sensors and processes to enable dexterity and are driven by Rivelin’s NetShape control software. The software uses both machine learning and traditional deterministic control theory to optimise the quality and repeatability of support removal and finishing. The result is an automated support removal and finishing solution that is said to reduce defects in parts by up to 90% and eliminate human risk and variability.

“We are thrilled to be exhibiting at Automatica 2023,” said Robert Bush, CEO of Rivelin Robotics. “This event provides a fantastic opportunity for us to showcase the NetShape Robots and their capabilities for automated post processing of metal parts to a global audience and connect with industry leaders and potential customers.”

Bush continued, “We believe that NetShape Robots have the potential to solve many of the challenges manufacturers of metal parts face through intelligent automation. We are excited to share our vision and expertise with visitors to Automatica 2023 and to continue pushing the boundaries of what is possible.”
