Stealth Robotics Information

Stealth Robotics is an independent KUKA robotics engineering practice specialising in technically demanding applications that sit outside the standard automation playbook. Composites layup and trimming, robotic additive manufacturing, fast-moving goods with conveyor tracking and vision, and process-intensive applications where the robot is not just handling parts but actively performing complex operations. My deepest expertise sits within the KUKA ecosystem specifically. I work across the full KR C4 and KR C5 controller range, with particular experience in KUKA technology packages including PickControl for high-speed FMG applications with Cognex vision integration and conveyor tracking. I have worked directly with KUKA Systems on the development of a new technology package for robotic additive manufacturing, in partnership with AiBuild, Adaxis, and Autodesk, bridging the gap between advanced software platforms and production-ready robotic hardware. In composites and aerospace, I have delivered robotic systems for environments where precision, repeatability, and process control are non-negotiable. In additive manufacturing, I have developed systems for both polymer deposition and wire-arc additive manufacturing, including the robotic machining workflows that follow. In FMG and logistics, I have designed and commissioned multi-robot delta systems with real-time conveyor tracking and vision-guided picking for high-throughput production lines. This is not general-purpose automation. These are applications where deep platform knowledge, process understanding, and the ability to develop bespoke KRL solutions from scratch are what separate a working cell from an expensive problem. I write structured, maintainable code with thorough documentation, and I build systems your team can own after handover.
