Industrial Robots

Industrial robots for safer, more efficient production

Factories and production sites need materials moved on time, floors kept clear and safe, and routine inspection done reliably, often with fewer people. SPARK Robotics helps UK manufacturers use autonomous transport, cleaning and inspection robots where they improve flow and safety.
We review your production areas, routes and loads, recommend suitable equipment and help your team put it to work.

What can robots do on a production site?

The right application depends on your process and your site. For some factories, that means delivering parts to the line. For others, it means moving pallets, cleaning production floors or patrolling for routine inspection.

Line-side delivery of parts – Industrial & Manufacturing

Line-side delivery
of parts

Autonomous delivery robots can carry parts, work-in-progress and tools between stores and production lines on a schedule or on demand.

Moving pallets and
finished goods

Pallet robots can move raw materials and finished goods between production, storage and dispatch, reducing manual forklift work.

Cleaning production floors – Industrial & Manufacturing

Cleaning production
floors

Industrial scrubbers and sweepers can clean large production and storage floors, helping keep walkways safe and meeting cleanliness standards.

Inspection and
patrol

Quadruped robots can carry cameras and sensors on routine inspection routes around plant and equipment, including areas that are hard or unsafe to reach.

Real deployments,
real operating conditions

At Eldon Square, a busy Newcastle shopping centre, SPARK introduced an autonomous L50 scrubber-dryer alongside the existing cleaning team. It has completed more than 1,000 hours of autonomous cleaning.

We also work with manufacturers across transport, cleaning and inspection applications. Explore the customer stories relevant to your site and the task you want to improve.

Eldon Square case study

How do we find the right solution for your site?

01

Identify the task

We discuss the repeated journeys or cleaning work you want to improve.

02

Assess the space

We review routes, surfaces, access, foot traffic, charging and staff handovers.

03

Demonstrate a suitable approach

We agree what the demonstration or trial should show and how success will be assessed.

04

Plan deployment and support

We configure the agreed solution, train your team and set out the support arrangements in your proposal.

The result is a recommendation based on your operation, rather than a robot selected from a catalogue.

Frequently asked questions

Can robots work safely on a production floor?

Yes. Robots detect people, vehicles and obstacles and slow down or stop around them. Routes, zones and speeds are agreed with your health and safety team.

Yes. We offer delivery robots for totes and parts, higher-payload robots for heavy loads and pallet robots for full pallets. We match the robot to your loads and routes.

Industrial scrubbers and sweepers are designed for demanding floors. We check your surfaces and contaminants during the site assessment to recommend the right machine.

Quadruped robots can carry cameras and sensors to record gauges, temperatures and equipment condition along set routes. Requirements are agreed during planning.

Yes. Most manufacturers start with one route or task, measure the results, then extend across the site.
