Hailfingen, Germany – July 10, 2019
ARRTSM is proud to announce a strategic collaboration with MEZ-TECHNIK GmbH for the development and deployment of the AIR-X Project—a groundbreaking robotics-based automation solution for the air duct and ventilation manufacturing industry.
This partnership combines ARRTSM’s expertise in autonomous robotics and industrial automation with MEZ-TECHNIK’s deep market reach in HVAC systems, with the shared objective of transforming air duct production through AI-powered, CNC-controlled robotic manufacturing.
The AIR-X System
Designed and engineered by ARRTSM, the AIR-X system integrates advanced robotics, artificial intelligence, and digital manufacturing workflows, including:
- Fully 3D path-programmed CNC robotic cells
- Machine vision and AI for intelligent part handling
- Integrated multi-tasking operations:
- Frame assembly
- Sealing
- Laser labeling
- Interior nano-coating
- Modular scalability from 1 to 6+ robotic arms
- XML / CSV-based production data integration, enabling seamless flow from design to deployment
Three-Phase Rollout Strategy
The AIR-X project follows a structured deployment roadmap:
Phase I
Functional deployment of:
- Frame assembly
- Sealing processes
- Laser-based part labeling
Phase II
Integration with:
- Profiling systems
- Sawing systems
to deliver fully assembled air duct frames
Phase III
Deployment of a fully autonomous robotic plant, enabling:
- High-speed production
- Zero manual intervention
- Complete air duct system manufacturing
Partnership Structure
Under the collaboration agreement:
-
MEZ-TECHNIK GmbH
