Avoid these mistakes if you want to automate your production
Whether it’s stacking pallets, gluing parts or sorting boxes: are you considering automating simple, repetitive tasks in your production line so that you can deploy your valuable skilled staff where you need them most?
Dann Achtung! Denn viele Betriebe scheitern an diesen beiden Fehlern:
- They start by automating the wrong process in the production chain.
Many people think that if they start by automating the part of the production line with the most movement – such as packaging or assembly – they will achieve the greatest impact.
The problem is that if you start in the middle of the production process, you have to modify adjacent equipment, reconfigure interfaces and, in many cases, install additional camera systems, sensors or grippers to ensure that components are correctly identified and positioned.
This is not only extremely labour-intensive, but also costs a great deal of time and money.
- They’re relying on the wrong technology.
When it comes to automation, most businesses simply fall back on what they are already familiar with: pneumatic grippers, simple pushers or PLC-controlled in-house solutions developed by the maintenance department.
Whilst this works to some extent, it does not solve the actual problem:
This is because the process then runs only semi-automatically; skilled staff still have to make adjustments, prepare materials or correct errors.
In other words: the skilled workers whom you actually wanted to deploy for more important tasks then have to remain at the machine.
How to make your automation a success
So that you can finally deploy your skilled staff where they’re really needed, …
… start by automating the simplest process in your production workflow.
It’s best to start at the beginning or end of your production line – in other words, where components are fed in or taken out.
This is because an automated feeding or removal process can be integrated into existing systems much more easily and quickly, and immediately reduces the workload on your staff. At the same time, you avoid costly and time-consuming modifications.
… use reliable technology that does not require manual operation.
Automation only brings you real benefits if it operates flawlessly and does not tie up staff on a permanent basis.
That is exactly what robotics achieves. A cobot, for example, uses sensors or camera systems to recognise workpieces and can grip, position or stack them independently, without a member of staff having to operate it manually.
Unlike humans, a cobot doesn’t need breaks and can therefore operate continuously.
For you, this means that, with the help of robotics, you can boost your productivity and, from now on, deploy your skilled staff to more important tasks.
Conclusion: To automate your production profitably, you need two things:
- Knowing at which stage of your production process automation will bring the greatest benefits.
- The right technique.
You get both with Samsys.

An overview of our automation solutions:
We’ll automate your production in 5 steps
Analysis
We’ll start with a joint discussion and an on-site tour of your production facility. During this, we’ll examine your manufacturing processes in detail, identify bottlenecks and determine which process is best suited for starting the automation process.
Concept
Based on the analysis, we develop a suitable robotics system that is fully tailored to your material flow and your machinery. You will receive a 3D visualisation of your planned system so that you can see exactly how the process will work later on.
Integration
Next, our experts will build your system and take care of the programming, installation and commissioning. All systems are integrated in such a way that they can be incorporated into your ongoing operations without causing lengthy downtime.
Training
Once installation is complete, we’ll show your team, right there at the running plant, how the system works and how to start it up and monitor it. From changing jobs to troubleshooting faults, we’ll explain all the key procedures in a practical way. This will ensure your team is able to operate the plant independently and safely.
Support
Once the system is up and running, we won’t leave you to your own devices. We’ll take care of maintenance, spare parts and regular system updates. You’ll always have a dedicated point of contact who knows your system inside out and can respond quickly when needed.

Simply fill in the contact form on our website. We’ll get back to you within 24 hours to arrange a suitable time for your consultation.
Samsys: Our Mission
Samsys GmbH has been developing automation technology for industry for more than 40 years. It all began with short-bar bar feeders – systems that automate the flow of material to CNC machines and remain part of our core business to this day.
Over time, however, we began to attract more and more customers who wanted not just a feeding system, but fully automated production processes. So we gradually familiarised ourselves with robotics, starting with simple loading and unloading solutions, and later moving on to palletizing, bin picking and mobile robot systems.
Today, we develop and build complete automation systems that can be seamlessly integrated into existing production lines – whether for standardised applications or customised solutions. Our aim is always the same: to make production processes simpler, more efficient and more cost-effective.
We are open to a wide variety of enquiries, particularly when there is no standard solution. New technical challenges are part of our day-to-day work, and that is often precisely what makes our work so appealing: developing a solution that did not exist before and that ultimately works reliably.

Frequently Asked Questions about Samsys’ robotic automation solutions
Why is it worth automating my production using robotics?
Robotics is always worthwhile when repetitive tasks tie up too much time or staff. By using robotic systems, manufacturing companies can utilise their machinery to full capacity around the clock, compensate for staff shortages and often double productivity. In addition, scrap rates fall because robots work with greater precision and consistency. The economic benefit therefore stems not only from lower labour costs, but also from stable cycle times and consistently high quality.
How can I find out which process in my production line can be automated first?
During the consultation, we’ll work with you to identify which tasks in your production process take up the most time or cause bottlenecks. These are often repetitive tasks such as palletising, loading and unloading, or sorting. We recommend starting with the simplest and most standardisable process. This will enable you to achieve measurable results quickly and then automate further processes step by step.
What does an automation project with Samsys actually involve?
Our projects follow a clearly defined 5-step process:
- Analysis and on-site inspection of your production facilities.
- Concept development and 3D visualisation of your robotic automation.
- Integration of the technology into your production process.
- Training for your team on how to set up the system.
- Support through maintenance, repair services and spare parts.
This ensures your production remains largely uninterrupted throughout the entire implementation process.
What tasks can robots carry out in manufacturing?
Our robotics systems automate tasks such as machine loading, palletizing, gluing, bin picking and internal transport. In doing so, they take on monotonous, physically demanding or safety-critical tasks that previously tied up skilled staff. This means your staff remain available for skilled work, whilst the robots operate with precision, require little maintenance and run continuously.
How much does robotic automation from Samsys cost?
The costs depend on the complexity of the task, the plant environment and the peripherals required. As a rough guide: simple automation tasks (e.g. palletizing) start at around 60,000 euros, whilst complex systems can cost more. More important than the price is the return on investment (ROI). A system usually pays for itself within a few months, as labour costs fall and throughput increases.
What happens if a robot breaks down or a fault occurs?
Our systems are designed for continuous operation and require very little maintenance. Should a fault nevertheless occur, we respond quickly: in most cases, our service team can intervene within a few hours – either via remote maintenance or on site.
Is robotics also a viable option for small and medium-sized enterprises?
Yes. Small and medium-sized enterprises in particular benefit from robotics because modular systems allow them to automate their operations in stages. You don’t have to replace an entire production line; instead, you can start with a single process. This allows you to manage your investment precisely, and every step brings immediate, tangible relief to day-to-day operations.
How long will it take to automate my production?
It usually takes between three and six months from analysis to commissioning – depending on the scope of the project and the plant’s structure. However, as we carry out our own development and manufacturing, we are able to implement many systems more quickly. Our aim is always to get you up and running as soon as possible, without any lengthy downtime in your ongoing production.
