Our Past Projects
SEYMOUR TRI-21
The SEYMOUR TRI-21 is a robotic semi-autonomous machine, which assembles microneedles used in ocular surgery 400% faster than previously. Designed for tight spaces in a cleanroom, and featuring three Meca500 six-axis robotic arms, it can insert 25 mm long rods into a hollow cylinder with only 60 micrometers of clearance.
FlexSEY Micro-Rod Inserter
The precision loader system developed for a biomedical device manufacturer significantly enhanced production efficiency by automating the handling of small parts with micron-level accuracy. This solution replaced outdated machinery, virtually eliminated downtime due to manual errors, and streamlined their manufacturing process.

FlexSEY Maglev Thermo Seal
The deployment of this system illustrates a practical application of combining modular design with precision robotics and data-driven insights to meet high-quality manufacturing requirements. We encourage dialogue with professionals seeking to leverage such technologies for improving manufacturing outcomes.
Micro-Screw Fasten and Dispense
Small screw feeding and fastening is a critical process in many industries, from electronics to automotive. Ensuring that screws are accurately fed, fastened, and torqued is essential for product quality and reliability. In this article, we will discuss a small screw feeding and fastening system that incorporates dispensing Loctite, inspecting the thread count, and validating torque using a double redundancy system. Additionally, we will explore how to collect and analyze data to establish baseline trends and identify potential issues.
Fuzion Pin-Flip Feeder
The feeder is integrated with a user-friendly HMI to allow for remote control and monitoring. The HMI provides a clear and intuitive interface for operators to monitor and control the feeder, displaying real-time data on screw feed rate, vibration levels, and sensor readings. Remote access capabilities can be implemented to allow for remote troubleshooting and maintenance, reducing downtime and increasing productivity.
Uflex Micro-Screw Feeder
Handling screws with pre-applied Loctite requires specialized components. To prevent adhesion, the rail can be coated with a non-stick material. Additionally, the rail and escapement must exert sufficient force to securely hold the screw without damaging it or causing the Loctite to spread.
Uflex Micro-Barrel Feeder
A precisely machined, low-friction feeding rail is installed on a vibration-isolated platform. This platform is equipped with a tuned mass damper, a mechanical device designed to absorb vibrational energy at a specific frequency. By carefully tuning the mass and stiffness of the damper, it effectively mitigates vibrations transmitted from the baseplate to the feeding rail. This ensures smooth and reliable screw transport, even in environments with significant vibration.
