About KBM Automation
KBM Automation AG, based in Wilen bei Wollerau (Switzerland), offers consulting, sales, mechanical and software engineering as well as after-sales services for complex machine and plant engineering projects in the field of sheet metal and long stock. The portfolio includes laser cutting systems, handheld laser welding systems (including fully integrated laser welding cabins), press brakes, fully automatic storage technology for long stock and sheet metal, loading and unloading systems as well as AGV transport solutions for heavy and bulky goods such as sheet metal, tubes and metal profiles. In addition, KBM supplies intelligent logistics software and economical automation solutions for profitable production processes. Alongside new systems, a core business is retrofits, modernizations as well as maintenance, support and hotline consulting for existing industrial systems. The target audience is primarily sheet metal processing companies and the manufacturing industry; a use case with Alpha Metall GmbH was featured in 2024 in the trade magazine Blechtechnik.
