Sawyer, Rethink Robotics’ fully integrated collaborative robot solution.

Rethink Robotics has announced that it has signed deals with seven new distribution partners throughout the United States, Europe, and Asia-Pacific to increase the availability of its smart, collaborative robots and allow manufacturers to automate more.

Rethink’s current global network – including select partners in the U.S., U.K., Germany, France, Spain, Italy, China, Korea, Japan, and Australia – is strengthened by these distribution partnerships as part of the company’s ongoing effort to meet growing demand across the globe, bringing adaptable automation to the global manufacturing market.

Manufacturers are increasingly turning to Sawyer as a smart automation solution to address challenges like labor shortages and improve efficiencies across industries like plastics, packaging and co-packing, metal fabrication, electronics and automotive supply chain. The new partners will join Rethink’s existing partners to help meet the growing demands in North America, Europe and Asia. Rethink Robotics offers manufacturers a cobot solution, including Intera software and the Clicksmart gripper technology, which make it easy to train and deploy.

“The growing international demand for our smart, collaborative robots has encouraged us to expand our network of qualified distribution partners in critical geographies across North America, Europe, and Asia,” said Jason Barton, chief revenue officer, Rethink Robotics. “This selective group of distributors will help us continue to provide an extraordinary experience to our customers around the globe at every step of the implementation process, ensuring success from purchase to deployment and beyond.”

New partners:

Centro, Inc. – No. Carolina, U.S.
Power Motion – Missouri, U.S.
Electronics Control – Xiamen, China
Robtech Industries – New Taipei, Taiwan
Europneumaq – Serzedo, Portugal
RT Robotics – Warsaw, Poland
IEC Supply Inc. – Arizona, U.S.
Tongchan Machinery – Hangzhou, China
Monarch Automation – Ohio, U.S.
Womack Machine Supply Co. – Texas, U.S.

Rethink Robotics’  network of distribution partners is critical in delivering Sawyer to manufacturers in major markets around the world. Rethink Robotics plans to add select distribution partners across the world in the coming months as market demand continues to rise. For more on Rethink Robotics click here.
