The only machine tending solution that takes ownership of the entire process — from bulk bin to packed, inspected, traced, finished part.
Most machine tending solutions stop at the robot. The real cost is in everything else — quality escapes, manual packaging, missing traceability, operators you can't find.
Finding and keeping skilled machine operators is increasingly expensive and unreliable. Labor inflation isn't stopping.
Manual loading and unloading introduces variation every cycle. Tool wear drifts unnoticed. Scrap ships.
Automotive and medical customers demand 100% part traceability. Manual systems miss data, fail audits, and cost chargebacks.
Machines sit idle when operators take breaks, switch shifts, or call out sick. Every idle minute is lost production forever.
Not just machine tending — complete process ownership. From raw part in a bin to finished, packed, traceable output.
3D vision systems and feeding technology guide the robot to locate, orient, and pick every part — whether bulk-dropped in a bin or organized in a tray. No two parts need to be identical in position.
The robot loads and unloads your existing process machine — CNC, press, injection molder, assembly station. No machine replacement required. TRW integrates with any OEM or brand.
This is the heart of TRW — and what no one else does. A custom-built checking station measures every part after the machine. The result feeds directly back to the process, automatically compensating for tool wear, thermal drift, and any variation before the next cycle.
Every part receives a permanent, machine-readable mark and a complete digital birth certificate. Every measurement, every machine cycle, every parameter — stored and linked to that part forever.
The final step completes the handoff. The robot places parts in customer-specified containers with exact orientation. Labels and quality documents are generated automatically. The finished, verified, packed part exits the cell — ready for the next process or direct customer shipment, with zero human touch.

Consistent robotic execution removes the variability of manual loading that causes most scrap and customer complaints.
Built-in 100% part inspection eliminates the need for manual CMM sampling and dedicated inspection headcount.
Run through nights and weekends without overtime. That's up to 56 additional production hours per week at near-zero marginal cost.
Inspection + traceability = no escapes. Avoid costly customer recalls, sorting charges, and chargeback penalties.
Tending TRW is powered by AMD Machines — a custom automation engineering company with a proven track record in automotive, electronics, and industrial manufacturing in Mexico and the US.
We don't sell robots. We engineer results. AMD has built assembly lines, robotic welding cells, leak detection stations, and traceability systems for automotive and electronics customers across North America. Tending TRW brings that experience to you as a complete, ready-to-deploy package.
