 Marand Robotics
Industrial robots are being used ever more widely in manufacturing, processing and logistics.
As technology advances and costs diminish, the advantages of robotic automation, once enjoyed only by large scale manufacturers, are now increasingly available to smaller businesses.
Marands robotics capabilities overlay experience in manufacturing systems and automation that dates back to 1969, and extend from highly complex systems to simpler, low-cost applications.
We offer complete turnkey solutions from concept development and design, to manufacture, installation and commissioning, training and ongoing support.
Thorough understanding of manufacturing processes and expertise in application development enables us to deliver robot-based automation that will help you:
• increase efficiency, productivity or production rates
• increase product quality and consistency
• minimise capital cost
• reduce occupational health and safety risks and
• maximise production and process flexibility
These benefits are delivered with a fast earn back rate / return on your investment.
Marand are the Australian importer and distributor of KUKA robots, Europes leading robot supplier.
Amongst other innovations, KUKA have lead the world in adopting a PC based controller that operates on the familiar Windows platform.
Over the years, Marand have successfully integrated numerous robots into complete automated systems across a variety of applications.
Marand Precision Engineering offers a complete turnkey ability from concept development and design, through manufacture to installation, commission, training and ongoing support.
Marand have integrated all of the major brands of robots and can offer the same turn key approach to suit the customers needs regardless of the robot type. |

 Expert Design and Manufacture
Marand's strength is in developing specific applications and integrating these into complete robotics systems. We have successfully performed this task in diverse industries using all major brands of robots.
Robot end-effectors, tooling and peripheral equipment are designed and manufactured in-house to exacting specifications or, where possible, provided as standard off-the-shelf equipment.
Expert design engineers with extensive systems and tooling experience provide innovative and ingenious solutions to straightforward or challenging applications. Sensor systems integrated with the robot control system allow the robot to see, feel or measure to enhance the system capabilities and fields of application.
Marands manufacturing capabilities are recognised internationally and supported by our National Association of Testing Authorities (NATA) certified metrology laboratory.

 Benefit From International Partnerships
Marand is the Australian master distributor and systems integrator of industry leader KUKA (Germany), renowned for breakthrough innovations that increase robot capability, reliability and operational economy.
KUKA was the first to introduce PC based robot controllers operating on Windows platforms with open architecture for easy integration and communication with peripheral systems. Light alloy and carbon fibre structural components give KUKA robots high agility and stiffness for optimum productivity and process repeatability.
Marand’s affiliation with KUKA provides you with access to a global network of system partners offering readily available solutions in most applications and industries.

 Turn Key Robotics Solutions
Marand makes the complicated task of developing your robotic system as
painless as possible. We work closely with you on each project, which
starts with a thorough analysis of your current process to generate a
concept and investment proposal.
From here we develop and design the concept in accordance with all engineering, environmental and safety standards.
Once built and prior to delivery, we test the system at our facilities
to ensure efficient installation and commissioning on site to minimise
your production down-time. |
