Automate is less than a week away!

One of the demos you'll see at the Edgewater Automation booth is a FANUC LR Mate 200iD using 2D iRVision to pick bottles from a rotating table and place them onto a conveyor.

Simple application. Good example of how vision can eliminate the need for precise part presentation.

If you're attending the show, stop by Booth No. 21011 and see it in action. Our team will be there all week talking about automation challenges manufacturers are working through every day.

Supporting a Great Cause in St. Joseph 🏃🏻‍♂️

A few members of the Edgewater Automation team spent their Saturday morning in St. Joseph participating in Alex's Duck Duck Run.

The event supports the Alex Mandarino Foundation, which helps children and families facing pediatric cancer. It was a great day to get outside, spend time with coworkers, and support a cause that means so much to so many families.

Thanks to the organizers, volunteers, and everyone who came out to make the event possible.

We're grateful to have been a small part of it!

A recent visit from FANUC America Corporation to our Spartanburg, South Carolina facility came with some exciting news: Edgewater Automation was recognized with a 2025 Outstanding Sales Growth Award.

We're proud to receive the recognition, but we're even more proud of what it represents.
Every automation system starts with a manufacturer looking for a better way to do something. This award reflects the trust our customers place in our team to help solve those challenges and deliver results.

Thank you to FANUC for the recognition and continued partnership, and thank you to everyone at Edgewater who helps make achievements like this possible.

What does it take to build 120 brake assemblies every hour?

When you're assembling a brake system, quality isn't something that's checked at the end. It has to be built into the process from the start.

Designed and built by our team in St. Joseph, Michigan, this automated assembly system combines robotics, 3D vision, and inspection technologies to produce 120 brake corner modules per hour.

By verifying critical assembly steps throughout production, the system helps ensure consistency while meeting the demands of high-volume manufacturing.

If you're facing a production challenge where consistency matters just as much as throughput, let's talk.

We’re less than a month away from AUTOMATE.

📍 Booth #21011 | North Building

Our team is looking forward to being back in Chicago and connecting with customers, partners, and others across the manufacturing industry.

This year, we’ll be showcasing a new live demo that we've been developing and are excited to finally put on the show floor.

If you're attending, stop by the booth to see it in action and talk with our team about the manufacturing challenges you're working through. Whether it's assembly, material handling, vision, robotics, or a process that simply needs a better way forward, we always enjoy those conversations.

AUTOMATE brings together thousands of manufacturing professionals and the latest advancements in automation technology, making it a great opportunity to see what's new and exchange ideas with others in the industry.

32 robots.
18 integrated stations.
One impressive automated assembly system.

Here’s a look at the system as it left our St. Joseph, Michigan facility following a successful FAT, with installation now underway at our customer’s plant.

The system combines FANUC 6-axis and SCARA robots, integrated feeding systems, SuperTrak™ conveyance, and vision inspection technology across 18 stations to support a fast-moving assembly process with quality verification built directly into the line.

For products where there is little room for error, systems like this help maintain consistent quality while keeping production moving efficiently at scale.

We appreciate the continued partnership and trust from our customer throughout the project and are looking forward to the next phase as the system moves into SAT.

We had the chance to host students and faculty from Notre Dame iNDustry Labs at our Buchanan facility today.

Our team walked through some of the projects we’re building, talked about the different paths into manufacturing, and gave the group a look at what day-to-day work in this industry really looks like.

What stood out most was how engaged everyone was throughout the tour. They asked thoughtful questions, wanted to understand the challenges behind the systems, and were genuinely interested in how everything comes together.

We appreciate the group taking the time to visit us today. Opportunities like this are a great reminder of how important it is to keep students connected to real manufacturing environments and the people working in them every day.

Built at our St. Joseph, Michigan facility, this automated assembly and palletizing line was designed to support a process involving large molded fiberglass components. Work like this often comes with heavy lifting, airborne particles, repetitive motion, and overall difficult working conditions for operators.

Systems like this help manufacturers create processes that are more consistent, more efficient, and better equipped to handle large products and challenging materials in a controlled and reliable way.

Using multiple FANUC America Corporation M-2000iB heavy-payload robots, this system moves and positions large components throughout the process with a high level of consistency from part to part. In applications where products are large, heavy, or difficult to work with manually, that consistency can have a real impact on both production and the people working around the process every day.

This is what automation is really about. Solving tough manufacturing challenges in a way that helps companies run better while creating a more dependable working environment for their teams.
