MC Machinery, Acieta Partner at FABTECH 2025 to Advance Robotic Press Brake Automation
September 11, 2025Building on the momentum of their successful collaboration at FABTECH 2024 in Orlando, MC Machinery Systems Inc. and Acieta are once again joining forces at FABTECH 2025 in Chicago to showcase the power of robotic press brake automation—featuring the FastBEND and RIBS (Robotically Integrated Bending Solutions).
As part of the ongoing “Banish Bottlenecks” campaign, this partnership continues to deliver real solutions to manufacturers looking to increase throughput, reduce labor dependency and eliminate production slowdowns.
Attendees can experience both FastBEND and RIBS in action at MC Machinery’s booth A2123, where cutting-edge robotic press brake automation takes center stage.
To further the conversation, the two companies are co-hosting a special podcast episode, "Banishing Bottlenecks: Robotic Press Brake Automation Demystified," featuring Darren Lubeke, Application Engineering Manager at Acieta, and Christian Grindle, Robotic Specialist at MC Machinery. The episode will answer common questions about robotic press brake integration, including flexibility, throughput and real-world implementation.
Additionally, Christian Grindle and Joey Kernen, Robotic Engineer at Acieta, will be featured speakers at FABTECH’s expert technology panel, "Unlocking the Future of Manufacturing: The Power of Press Brake Automation." The panel will be Tuesday, September 10, 2025 from 10 – 11:30 AM CST in Room S403A, McCormick Place, Chicago IL.
“Banish Bottlenecks' is more than putting a robot on a piece of equipment,” Grindle said. “It’s about finding an experienced partner that can precisely target your pain points and administer the right type of automation for the task. This is what makes our collaboration with Acieta so powerful.”
"Together, MC Machinery and Acieta are showcasing what is possible when robotic integration meets smart bending technology—and giving manufacturers the tools to bend without limits," a spokesperson said.
