How we started?
What inspired you to enter the world of automation and robotics?
The main inspiration was to reduce our development costs when creating manipulators for loading and unloading our digital printing machines, which we supplied to our customers.
What was the most significant turning point on your journey to FAIRINO Europe?
After verifying the quality, stable supply, and strong focus on the development of the software and technical equipment of the cobots, we were convinced that we had found the right partner. The overall sales strategy needed to be built on a more conceptual level than the standard sales approach through independent authorized partners. That’s why Fairino Europe was founded – as the main importer of Fairino cobots and accessories into Europe.
What is your biggest professional success within FAIRINO?
Professional success cannot be defined by a single business case, but rather by the overall growth of Fairino cobot sales in Europe and the rapid adoption of integrations into industrial companies. This success is supported by the creation of a European service center for both warranty and post-warranty repairs.
What was your path to this industry – did you study engineering or was it something else that led you to robotics?
Since 2005, when our parent company was founded, we have been more or less involved in building complex assembly lines, workstations, and in recent years also very sophisticated digital printing machines, primarily used in the pharmaceutical, automotive, and electronics industries.
What do you see as the strongest advantage of cobots, and why should companies start using them now?
The biggest advantage of Fairino cobots in terms of hardware lies in the use of harmonic drives, dual encoders in each axis, and a very stable all-metal construction. In terms of software, it is the stable and highly dynamic development of applications that expand usability across a wide range of industries. All of this is supported by a very attractive pricing policy, which enables the use of these cobots even in industrial sectors where, before Fairino entered the European market, such automation was not economically viable.
