~40%less setup and configuration time
The challenge
What Orangewood was up against.
Industrial robots are powerful but expensive, complex, unsafe without cages and out of reach for small and mid-sized manufacturers.
- High cost to deploy
- Need for robotics specialists
- Unsafe around people
- Overkill for repetitive small-scale tasks
The solution
What we built.
Skugal engineered the software layer that makes Orangewood’s hardware usable on real production floors, designed around human–robot collaboration.
AI-assisted task programming
Guided task setup for non-experts, reducing dependence on robotics engineers.
Safety by design
Controlled movement zones and predictable execution for shared workspaces.
Remote monitoring
Status, performance and diagnostics for faster issue resolution and less downtime.
How it works
From input to outcome.
- Operator defines task
- AI-assisted task setup
- Safe, controlled execution
- Real-time feedback
- Remote monitoring & maintenance
Business impact
What changed.
Orangewood delivered robotic arms that feel approachable rather than intimidating, helping manufacturers automate faster, more safely and at a fraction of traditional cost.
