Transform complex manufacturing challenges into dependable, high-performing automation with GLOBAL Automation Technologies. From robotic cells and custom tooling to vision-guided processes and complete production-line integration, our engineers design equipment around your parts, cycle times, quality standards, and plant constraints. Gain greater throughput, consistent results, safer operations, and a practical path from concept through production launch.
Our Custom Automation Machinery and Equipment Services
Integrated robotic equipment, engineering, and modernization services tailored to demanding manufacturing operations.
Turnkey Robot Integration
Complete robotic systems designed from process study through simulation, build, installation, commissioning, training, and long-term support. GLOBAL integrates robots, controls, vision, tooling, safety systems, and plant-floor connectivity into one coordinated solution.
Custom machine tending cells automate loading, unloading, door operation, part orientation, and cycle starts for CNC machines, presses, molding equipment, and secondary operations. Vision, fixtures, and grippers are engineered around each application.
Integrated assembly automation combines pick-and-place, fastening, insertion, dispensing, testing, inspection, and traceability. GLOBAL builds cells and lines that help manufacturers document process results while improving consistency and production capacity.
Flexible material handling systems manage pick-and-place, palletizing, de-palletizing, racking, transfer, and bin picking. Robot selection, end-of-arm tooling, conveyor synchronization, PLC integration, and guarding are engineered for available floor space and cycle requirements.
Machine vision and intelligent guidance help robots identify, locate, inspect, and track parts in-line. These technologies support random bin picking, moving-line operations, adaptive processing, quality inspection, and reduced fixturing demands.
GLOBAL Automation Technologies turns production requirements into custom automation machinery that fits the real conditions of an operation. The team evaluates parts, processes, throughput targets, floor space, safety needs, and quality controls, then carries the machine through concept, mechanical and controls design, build, factory acceptance testing, installation, and commissioning run-off. With robotic systems integration and technical staffing under one roof, manufacturers gain a single partner for equipment design, deployment, workforce support, and continuous improvement.
The GLOBAL Difference
Why Choose GLOBAL Automation Technologies?
A unified automation partner for the equipment, expertise, and support modern manufacturing demands.

Turnkey Support
From layout through commissioning and training, teams receive accountable support throughout the automation lifecycle.
Founded in 2008, GLOBAL Automation Technologies was built to solve manufacturing problems through automation. It recognized that manufacturers need more than a robotic system—they need skilled people to engineer, launch, and maintain it—so it combined robotic systems integration and technical staffing into one model, coordinating equipment and talent through a single partner. Today its 110+ team members support demanding manufacturing environments with process studies, simulation, controls, robot programming, installation, commissioning, and ongoing support. Having sold more than 630 robots and completed work across 22 countries, GLOBAL pairs practical engineering with AI-assisted simulation tools.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does GLOBAL build as a custom machine builder?
GLOBAL designs and builds purpose-built automation machinery—robotic cells, custom tooling, fixtures, conveyors, and integrated controls—engineered around a manufacturer's parts and process. Each machine combines mechanical design, build, controls, and safety into one system. The result performs a defined production task within a new or existing plant environment.
What kinds of manufacturers order custom machinery from GLOBAL?
GLOBAL builds machinery for automotive and EV, heavy equipment, aerospace, defense, appliance, consumer products, and general industrial producers. Common applications include machine tending, welding, assembly, dispensing, palletizing, and material handling. The right configuration follows from part review and process analysis.
What are the phases of a custom machine build?
A build moves from concept and feasibility through mechanical and controls design, fabrication and assembly, factory acceptance testing, on-site installation, and commissioning run-off. GLOBAL proves out motion, tooling, and sequences at its shop before shipment. Run-off at the customer's facility confirms the machine meets the production task.
How does GLOBAL match a machine to our parts and controls?
Robots, end-of-arm tooling, fixtures, and controls are selected around part geometry, cycle time, and floor space. GLOBAL can build to the control platform a plant already standardizes on—such as Allen-Bradley, Siemens, or an Ignition-based HMI—so maintenance stays consistent. Tooling and grippers are engineered for each application rather than reused off the shelf.
Can a custom machine work with existing equipment?
Yes. GLOBAL integrates new machinery with current machines, conveyors, fixtures, and controls, and can phase the work to limit downtime. The team evaluates interfaces, guarding, utilities, and floor space before finalizing the design. A stand-alone new machine is chosen when integration would compromise performance.
What support does GLOBAL provide after a machine is built?
GLOBAL handles installation, commissioning, operator and maintenance training, and documentation, then ongoing support. Planned service can be scheduled between maintenance windows. Skilled technicians and engineers are available through GLOBAL's staffing model when a plant needs added help.
What does GLOBAL need to start a custom machine project?
A conversation about the parts, process, and production goals is enough to begin; part drawings or samples, target volume, and cycle time help refine the concept. GLOBAL then assesses feasibility and outlines a scope. Early engineering and simulation shape a realistic build plan.
