Carmo has 60 years of experience in production automation. While many other manufacturing companies have chosen to outsource production to low-wage regions, Carmo has opted to keep production in Denmark and invest heavily in automation. As a result, we have unique expertise and know-how if you want to automate your production.
Successful automation requires a high level of technical expertise and close collaboration to understand the customer’s product and overall supply chain. We typically recommend early collaboration so we can advise on Manufacturing Engineering and production maturation.

Automation of manual processes
Manual processes can be advantageous early in a project when a product still has low volumes and investment options are limited. Typically, automating manual operations quickly becomes cost-effective by introducing robotic solutions or advanced injection moulding tools and techniques.
Flexible robotic solutions
We are experts in leveraging the potential of industrial robots. Most of our production cells are equipped with 6-axis robots, enabling fast automation and packaging of production. We develop our own robotic grippers and have an innovative approach to utilizing technology to ensure the automation of even complex components.
End-to-end thinking
In our experience, all good automation projects start with an end-to-end approach to the product: What happens before the product, what does it integrate into, and how is it processed afterwards? Often, understanding this allows for the integration of features or the adoption of production methods that can eliminate subsequent processes such as assembly, sterilization, etc.
Production maturity
For the best possible automation, we always recommend early collaboration during the development phase. This allows the product and design to be optimized directly for later automation. This production maturation may require a bit more investment early on but will typically pay off many times over.
