ISYBOT

The company's business is centered on designing, assembling, and marketing cobots specifically for industrial applications like sanding, grinding, and polishing. ISYBOT serves major industrial clients, including names like SNCF, Airbus, Safran, Iveco, and Beneteau, demonstrating its applicability across aerospace, automotive, and manufacturing sectors. The business model encompasses direct sales, machine rentals, and proofs of concept, catering exclusively to a B2B market. Revenue is generated through these channels, with a strategic partnership with Saint-Gobain Surface Solutions enhancing its market reach.

ISYBOT's core product is a range of cobots, such as the SYB 3, which features a 1.6-meter range and a 10 kg payload capacity. The key technological distinction lies in its patented actuator system, which replaces standard gears with a ball-screw-and-cable mechanism. This design innovation offers several benefits: it allows the cobot to control the force applied—such as sanding pressure—by measuring the motor's electric current, eliminating the need for additional force sensors. This makes the system less complex and more reliable. Furthermore, the technology results in a robot with lower inertia and friction, making it intrinsically safer for human collaboration and highly intuitive for operators, who can be trained in less than half a day. The cobot can learn by demonstration, where an operator performs a task once for the robot to replicate, effectively capturing and perpetuating worker know-how for tasks that were previously not automated.
