About SERVO-ROBOT
Founded in 1983, SERVO-ROBOT manufactures 3D robot vision systems and software for intelligent real-time control and monitoring of industrial robots. The laser vision systems are used for 3D seam tracking and finding, robot inspection, intelligent adaptive process control and AI-assisted weld inspection, in particular for robotic arc and laser welding, hybrid laser welding, laser brazing and robotic dispensing applications. Further applications include non-contact quality control of welded joints including paperless electronic reporting as well as 3D robot measurement for plasma and flame cutting, bevel cutting and gouging. The portfolio includes systems such as i-CUBE-T (hybrid sensing system) and the WiKi-SCAN 2.0 weld measurement system, used among other things on wind turbine towers, pressure vessels and bridges. The products have been in use worldwide for over 40 years in large and medium-sized industries; support is provided through own subsidiaries and a partner network. The German subsidiary SERVO-ROBOT GmbH is based in Stuttgart, with headquarters in Saint-Bruno-de-Montarville near Montreal (Canada).
