Who it’s for

MTC works alongside medium to large organisations at different stages of automation and robotics maturity - from those shaping early plans or validating potential approaches, to those with established programmes that need additional technical depth, independent assurance or delivery support.  

Our automation and robotics expertise is particularly relevant for companies that: 

  • Want to connect robotics and automation activity with wider productivity, labour resilience or operational transformation goals.
  • Are validating new automation concepts before committing further budget, resource or supplier activity.
  • Need to integrate robotics with complex equipment, data systems, legacy assets or existing workflows.
  • Have existing automation systems in operation, but need to improve performance, utilisation or scalability.
  • Are scaling automation across multiple lines, sites or production environments.
  • Need independent technical challenge, assurance or delivery support for a major automation programme.

Project Convergence Image 2

Moog: 15% reduction in non-value-added activity

MTC developed a flexible automation solution for high-mix manufacturing, combining robotics, vision systems and adaptable feeding technologies. The work helped reduce non-value-added time by 15%, increase throughput and deliver 100% part traceability. 

ATRIS Prototype

ATRIS: up to 40% productivity improvement

MTC helped develop and validate a robotic system using AI, vision systems and 3D mapping to automate mechanical and electrical installation in tunnel environments. The project demonstrated up to 40% productivity improvement, around 30% reduction in installation costs, improved safety and reduced project risk. 

The Robot Experience Centre at MTC

Robot Experience Centre: validate automation before deployment

Through facilities including the Robot Experience Centre, MTC helps organisations test assumptions, compare approaches and generate evidence before committing internal resource, capital or supplier activity.

System Integrator Partnership: from concept to successful implementation

MTC can draw on experienced system integrator partners during concept development, helping to ensure practical delivery considerations are built in from the start without limiting the route forward. MTC maintains independent technical oversight throughout, helping ensure what is delivered remains true to the agreed concept. 

Why choose MTC

MTC brings together deep automation and robotics expertise, independent insight and a practical, evidence-led approach to complex manufacturing and industrial automation challenges. Our recommendations are driven by what will deliver the best outcome for your operation - not by predefined systems, products or vendors. 

Independent and objective
