Izoelektro d.o.o. is a rapidly growing manufacturer from Slovenia (EU) that provides products intended for maintenance, refurbishment and set-up of electro-energy systems. The company has only 8 employees and was looking for a way to increase production and improve quality assurance. The results were evident quickly and plans are underway to diversify operations utilizing more Universal Robots.

The business transformation

“The biggest challenge for us is to fulfil our customers’ demands in a cost efficient manner,” says Tadej Kovač, development manager in Izoelektro. “ Worldwide companies are optimizing their production processes so we started considering automatization as well. Robots are the future and especially in electric components manufacturing where we face strong every-day competition, so we started looking for a suitable robotic solution.”

Due to its small size, the company cannot afford a traditional industrial automation system. Collaborative robots can offer many different and more affordable options. “Universal Robots brand is recognized worldwide, they offer good quality for a very good price, so in the end it was not a difficult decision,” adds Kovač.
