Industrial robot deployment and commissioning
Deployment and commissioning of industrial robots, AMRs and AGVs, from site survey and design through installation, interface integration, safety validation, acceptance testing, training and handover.
Overview
A robot deployment follows staged phases. Discovery and site survey record loads, routes, transfer points, layout and hazards. Engineering defines the robot or vehicle configuration, safety concept, operating modes (normal, degraded, maintenance, manual and recovery) and interfaces to equipment and software. Installation and commissioning follow, then staged acceptance tests that cover normal operation, faults and controlled restart, before training and handover.
The same approach applies to fixed robot cells for machine tending, pick and place, packaging, inspection and palletising, and to mobile robots on shared routes.
Planning a deployment
Agree the scope, layout, interfaces and safety measures before installation, and link each requirement to a test so acceptance is objective. Plan the commissioning window, availability of product and operators for trials, and who will maintain and support the system after go-live.

Frequently asked questions
What happens during acceptance testing?
Tests check each agreed requirement on site, including normal operation, interfaces with equipment and software, safety functions, and behaviour under faults and controlled restart. Results are recorded against the requirements so both parties can see what has passed and what remains open before handover.
What should we prepare before commissioning?
Make the area, utilities and network available, confirm that interfacing equipment and software are ready, arrange product and operators for trial runs, and nominate people for training. Agree the commissioning schedule with production planning so trials do not clash with peak demand.
