Productive Robotics, based in Santa Barbara, California, is set to showcase its innovative end-to-end automation solutions at the International Manufacturing Technology Show (IMTS) 2026, taking place on July 1. The company will exhibit at two booths, highlighting its 7-axis OB7 collaborative robots, which require no programming and offer a plug-and-play setup. This technology aims to address acute labor shortages, rising costs, and global competition faced by manufacturers.
In Booth #339186, the focus will be on automating metal removal processes, while Booth #237138 will emphasize abrasive machining, sawing, and gear production. Zac Bogart, president of Productive Robotics, emphasized the importance of CNC machining for U.S. manufacturers, particularly in defense, aerospace, and automotive sectors, as well as for reshoring efforts to stabilize supply chains.
The demonstrations will include automated vision inspection systems, MIG welding, and laser welding applications, showcasing the versatility of the company's robots. With their unique 7-axis design, these collaborative robots offer enhanced dexterity, allowing them to perform a wide range of tasks without the need for workspace redesign. The user-friendly interface enables operators with no robotics experience to quickly teach the robots tasks, significantly boosting productivity and safety in various manufacturing environments.
