About The Way Automation
Built in Bixby, Oklahoma, for the people who run the floor.
The Way Automation was founded in June 2022 in Bixby, Oklahoma. We design, build, program, and support robotic cells from one shop at 14935 S Grant St, and when a cell in the field needs a person, one of ours shows up.

The people at the panel
The engineer who programmed the cell is the one who answers the phone.
A small team in Bixby that designs, builds, programs, and supports every cell. These are our engineers on customer floors, doing the part of the job that does not fit in a brochure.
The cell is proven on the floor with the pendant in hand, not signed off from a desk.
How we think about your money
We size the cell from your numbers, then let the line prove it.
We would rather under-promise and let your own parts and line rates make the case than hand you a brochure figure. Start with the station that costs you the most. What comes after is your call.
- Your parts and your line ratesNot an industry average.
- Scope in writingWhat is included, and what is not.
- One cell firstThen you decide.
