Complete Automated Machine Tending Solution



Flexxbotics has launched FlexxTend, a turn-key automated machine tending solution for machine shops to automate their CNC machines.

"Setting up a machine tending application takes time and effort, especially when machine shops are busy trying to get parts out of the door" said a company spokesperson. "FlexxTend takes care of the whole process for you. Our team designs everything to your specification and can be onsite integrating, validating and training six weeks later."

FlexxTend helps to:

  • Ensure rapid design and integration so cobots go into production quickly, increasing machine utilization and accelerating time to ROI.
  • Eliminate the headaches and inefficient time figuring out an optimal set-up. The Flexxbotics team handles everything, so customers can focus on production.
  • Maximize functionality out of a machine tending set-up by leveraging all the automation features of CNC, cobot and online services to enable lights-out manufacturing.
  • Enable robust operations and support by providing the tools to be able to run high-mix low-volume jobs.

Tyler Bouchard, co-founder and CEO at Flexxbotics, said: "One of the key benefits of FlexxTend is that it gives us direct access to the systems so we can recognize downtime, troubleshoot issues and provide direct changes to programs, all remotely. It is like all of our customers have a Flexxbotics Automation engineer onsite all the time. We are excited to launch the FlexxTend platform, which optimizes the design of your work cell so you can handle multiple parts, conduct rapid changeover and run lights-out manufacturing."
