Got a 3D STEP model? Drop it here.

A STEP model is best. A drawing with the bend angles works too.

    What will you send?

    Does your drawing show every bend angle?

    If not, we tell you exactly what to add.

    What material is the part?
    How thick?
    How heavy is the biggest one?

    The heaviest part picks the robot.

    About how many a month?
    How many different parts run on that brake in a week?

    Setups decide how flexible the cell must be.

    What holds the job up today?
    Where do we send your plan?

    An engineer writes back within 2 business days.

    One person follows up, and a reply of "no thanks" closes it. Your files go to The Way Automation only and are not shared.

    Rather talk now?

    Call or text (406) 491-7310 or email Sales@thewayautomation.com.

    A simulation is a first look on our demonstration cell, not your machine. Programs are checked in simulation only and reviewed by a person before any use. The quote is budgetary, not a firm price. Built Here. Backed Here.
