Advanced Robotic Systems for Assembly and Fabrication
Electroimpact is the world-leading robotic system integrator for aerostructure assembly and fabrication.
With over 130 systems deployed in production across five (5) continents, EI boasts a 100% project success rate.
We can meet and exceed our customers’ challenging requirements and offer a wide range of solutions.
The production-hardened Accurate Robot is our most widely-used motion platform utilizing the EI-patented robot
enhancement architecture (US 8989898 B2.) We are also experienced OEM integrators with multiple successful
installations based on Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) robots. Electroimpact doesn’t just deliver a piece of equipment, we deliver a process.
Whether that’s drilling and fastening, milling, additive manufacturing or anything in-between, Electroimpact has
grown vast expertise working closely with military and commercial aerospace customers around the globe to develop
and deliver high-quality, reliable systems.
