No deployment evidence on file
A deployment is recorded when a public source names both the customer and the robot, or the maker confirms it. Nothing here counts against Automata Technologies.
In Collaborative Robot, Universal Robots A/S, FANUC and Kassow Robots ApS have deployment evidence on file.
Add a deployment →Affordable, accessible six-axis industrial robots for SMEs and manufacturers
Automata designs and manufactures Eva, a lightweight six-axis industrial robotic arm priced at £4,990 ($6,535), approximately one-quarter the cost of mainstream competitors. Eva is programmable in 15–30 minutes with no prior coding experience, targeting small-to-medium manufacturers and factory workers seeking to automate repetitive tasks.

RoboScore
51.18 RoboScore + 0.00 Momentum· Adequate evidence
Products 65%, Depth 5%, Evidence 30% set the number, and every rated company has all three. Attention has no weight of its own — it is one of the two things Evidence is built from, and it can only ever add. Activity and Readiness describe the brand but never move it. A value we don't have reads —, never zero. Momentum is independently collected news coverage, worth at most 15 points and never a deduction — a maker we have heard nothing about keeps its full RoboScore. Claiming or paying moves nothing.
