About Isochronic

Our Vision, Origins & Team

Vision

At Isochronic, our vision is to revolutionize pick&place production processes by spreading simultaneous-transfer robots throughout the world’s factories, boosting their efficiency.

 

Our software-driven robotic systems provide a missing tool to the global automation industry, enabling repetitive part transfer operations to be automated easily, reliably and at record speeds, even over long distances. Isochronic’s highly efficient industrial robots are cutting energy waste and benefiting mankind.

History

Isochronic was founded in 2020 and has since grown to a vibrant team of 15 experts. Capitalising on many years of R&D, we are proud to offer our revolutionary simultaneous pick & place technology to the market since AUTOMATICA 2022 (Germany).


Lead by a highly-skilled and industry-experienced team, we’re focused on designing innovative simultaneous pick & place systems that integrate perfectly into any automation machine to maximize its performance, flexibility and compactness.
