Siemens and Danobat have introduced a new series of six-axis industrial robots that integrate machine tool control technology. The product range is currently available for purchase in Europe and Asia.
Why it matters
The system combines robotic flexibility with the precision of computer numerical control to handle demanding manufacturing tasks. This partnership aims to expand high-precision robotics into specialized industrial market segments.
The robots offer reach capabilities between 2.6 and 3.6 meters with payload capacities ranging from 220 kg to 520 kg. The system uses six-axis movement to replicate the stability typically found in machine tools.
The players
Siemens
A multinational technology conglomerate based in Berlin and Munich with a vast footprint in industrial automation, energy infrastructure, and digital factory software.
Danobat
An industrial machine tool manufacturer specializing in high-precision grinding, turning, and automated production solutions for global manufacturing sectors.
The details
The platform integrates Danobat high-precision CNC (computer numerical control — a system for automated machine tool movement via programmed commands) robotics with Siemens control technology. This architecture uses six-axis robotic movement to replicate the stability and accuracy of fixed machine tools, allowing for complex manufacturing applications that require high repeatability.
Timeline
September 30, 2024: Siemens concluded its fiscal year 2024.
October 3, 2026: The product line launch was formally announced.
The Tech Race
The development extends the established Sinumerik machine tool control platform into the competitive robotics market. It follows a industry trend of integrating traditional CNC precision with the reach and flexibility of articulated robot arms.
The new robots are available for commercial purchase today across Europe and Asia. Manufacturers in these regions can begin integrating the systems into production lines that require higher payloads and CNC-level movement accuracy.
The takeaway
This partnership highlights an increasing effort to bridge the gap between high-precision machining and robotic automation. Watch for upcoming demonstrations of these systems at the JEC, EMO, and Automatica trade shows to see how the technology performs in live industrial settings.
