JAKA Robotics is pleased to announce a new partnership with Brütsch Elektronik, a Swiss provider of customized automation solutions and medical devices manufacturer. This collaboration aims to bring JAKA cobots closer to Swiss companies seeking convenient and cost-efficient automation solutions to enhance productivity.

Headquartered in Shanghai, JAKA Robotics entered the European market in early 2023 by opening an office in Fürth, Germany. Since then, the company has been strengthening its presence in Europe, particularly in the German-speaking market, through partnerships with industry giants like Siemens and Schneider Electric, launching a logistics warehouse in Bavaria for expedited product deliveries, and rapidly expanding its network of system integrators.

To further build its presence in Switzerland, JAKA has teamed up with Brütsch Elektronik, a company based in Beringen. Brütsch Elektronik boasts decades of experience in designing full automation solutions and offering services, logistics, and support for Swiss companies across various industries – including renowned machine manufacturers – in enhancing production efficiency through automation.

Wolfgang Lienke, Head of JAKA Europe: “The Swiss market is a key area for JAKA Robotics due to its strong industrial base and high demand for innovative automation solutions. Brütsch Elektronik’s technical competence and knowledge in motion, CNC, safety, and control make them an invaluable partner for JAKA in this market.”

Cornelius Niemeyer, Head of Automation Division at Brütsch Elektronik: “To maintain and optimize Switzerland as a manufacturing hub, our companies need to start automating manual processes, even small series productions, inspections, and helper tasks. This applies not just to industry but also to sectors like crafts, logistics, agriculture, administrations, and municipal facilities. At Brütsch Elektronik, we create custom solutions tailored to our clients’ specific needs and goals.”

Brütsch Elektronik has extensive experience as a software service provider in internal and external robot projects, having long relied on known and proven technology. They recognized the advantages of smaller collaborative robots, such as space-saving and cost-efficiency, and were particularly interested in their ease of use and implementation. JAKA’s technology quickly convinced them.

“We recognized the simplicity and effectiveness of JAKA’s graphical programming software, which can be operated through the JAKA APP on a tablet or smartphone. The integration of JAKA cobots into the Siemens SIMATIC Robot Library also allows us to offer our customers additional expertise in incorporating a collaborative robot into their applications. Moreover, the robustness of JAKA cobots outshines competitors. All this, combined with an attractive price for our customers, led us to partner with JAKA Robotics,” Niemeyer explained.

The partnership aims to benefit Swiss companies across various industries, with a particular focus on sectors where the combined expertise of JAKA Robotics and Brütsch Elektronik can excel most. With the certifications of JAKA cobots and Brütsch Elektronik’s extensive experience in the medtech industry, the partners are well-positioned to implement outstanding solutions in industrial automation, laboratory automation, the medtech sector, pharmaceuticals, life sciences, and research. Additionally, Brütsch Elektronik’s over 50 years of experience in machine processes for metalworking (honing, milling, welding) will see JAKA cobots as a valuable asset for quality control with a vision system.
