About ROBO MAT AG
ROBO MAT AG is a Swiss special-purpose machinery manufacturer based in Kleindöttingen that has been developing and manufacturing custom automation solutions for pharma, medtech, automotive and industry since 1977. The company offers both modular machine platforms for labeling, feeding, palletizing and assembly as well as fully custom special-purpose machines. Mechanics, electrical design, control cabinet construction, PLC and software development (GAMP5) as well as the assembly of all subassemblies are carried out in-house; engineering is implemented with Solid Edge, simulations and functional prototypes. The systems are designed for flexible production of small to medium batch sizes and high product variety and are delivered in GMP-compliant execution including qualification, validation, FAT and SAT. Across the entire life cycle, RoboMat provides service, maintenance, retrofits and digitalization with MES/ERP integration. Since 2025, the company has been part of VINCI Energies and operates under the industrial brand Actemium.
