Frequently Asked Questions

What kinds of automation does GLOBAL build?

GLOBAL designs and builds custom robotic cells and turnkey lines for welding, material handling, assembly, machine tending, and vision-guided tasks. Systems are engineered to the customer's parts, rates, and quality goals rather than sold as fixed products. Controls and PLC integration are handled in-house so the robotics and logic ship together.
