SOLUTIONS 4.0 FOR THE INDUSTRIAL SECTOR

More than 25 years of experience in the field of automation, a world-leading position in the sector of robotics for the steel industry and many ideas still to develop.This is BM Group Polytec today.

Our platforms integrate robotics, automation, artificial vision, cloud computing and IIoT and are designed to increase production efficiency and manage processes with shorter lead times, while still ensuring the highest product quality.

To this purpose, we offer upgrading and digitalisation programmes based on an analysis and evaluation approach to efficiently support our customers in their innovation project.

CUSTOMISATION IS OUR STRENGTH 

To create innovative solutions that meet the expectations of our customers, to improve the production efficiency of their plants and to ensure safety: this is our mission.

INNOVATION IS COLLABORATION

Innovation always accompanies a cultural renewal. Today, the traditional and individualistic business concept is rediscovering the added value brought by collaboration. Innovation can be achieved more efficiently and faster only through the interplay of specialised skills, integration and the connection of functions. 

Innovation is risky by nature and, therefore, innovators need to move carefully along the fine line that separates success from failure, because innovation is successful as long as it is purchasable.
