Contract Manufacturing Services |
Carnegie Robotics was founded with the intent of manufacturing product. As our in house manufacturing developed into an industry benchmark, we now offer these services as a standalone option. Small businesses to large, we want to partner with companies that have designs they would like built in America. |
Quality |
Carnegie Robotics designs, manufactures, and supports highly reliable systems and components that improve productivity and safety for our customers. We will consistently deliver products and services that meet customer requirements with processes that support employee innovation and excellence. |
Certified to ISO 9001:2015 in addition to receiving highest ratings achievable from customer audits. |
Promoting a culture of quality first by creating systems that produce flawless products, but more importantly hiring and developing people that believe in the highest standards. |
People |
People vs process is a common debate in manufacturing, both being critical in achieving excellence. Our belief is that if both can be great, then achieving the impossible becomes second nature. Great people create great processes. |
We have assembled a diverse team with a wealth of experience and expertise in various industries that have now teamed together with a common goal of passion for manufacturing hardware, lean manufacturing, continuous improvement, and customer satisfaction. |
Leadership of tomorrow are currently interns and apprentices. Investment in our own people to develop and grow through continual learning, training (IPC, ASQ, Six Sigma, Lean Manufacturing), and mentorship results in a team with similar goals, but differing approaches that pushes us to higher heights through competitive debate. |
Egoless approach from teammates because the only goal that matters is that we safely create quality products that arrive to the customer when they requested and for a fair cost. |
Process |
Systems allow for a paperless approach, where all movement is tracked in an effort to reduce as much non-value added time as possible. Visual Factory from NoMuda as our MES allows for process control, traceability, and data collection. |
Advanced tooling allows for efficiency gains, process and quality control. In house developed automated optical inspection equipment creates a poka-yoke assembly process. Kolver torque wrenches allow for precision application and data collection of every torque applied to every fastener. Automated wire processing equipment allows for rapid development of custom harnessing with integrated test equipment that verifies 100% of connections. |
Utilizing standard lean manufacturing practices we have created a system that is efficient and robust. Value Stream Mapping processes allows for Kaizen events to be executed using Plan, Do, Check, Act to reduce the Seven Deadly Wastes. Having the right people strategically located as close to the Gemba (shop floor) creates a learning environment that strives for Root Cause Analysis on all identified issues. Practicing Just In Time assembly in conjunction with a Kanban creates Heijunka (level scheduling) that creates cost effective, on time deliveries for our customers. |
Key Capabilities |
Automated Optical Inspection |
Our optical inspection systems meticulously compare every component against known standards, ensuring that only perfect products move forward. Immediate visual feedback helps our technicians catch and correct any deviations on the spot. This rigorous inspection process maintains the high standards you expect from our manufacturing services. |
Flexible Workstations, Flexible Workfloor |
With over 60,000 square feet of available floor space we adapt to the current demands to create the most optimal workflow of material and technician movement. Our adaptable workstations are designed to enhance productivity by ergonomically minimizing technician movement and reducing human error. Ergonomically designed and equipped with custom tools, these stations streamline assembly processes and ensure that your products are built efficiently and accurately. This flexibility allows us to meet diverse manufacturing needs with precision and speed. |
Integrated Supply Chain |
Our integrated supply chain management is designed to align seamlessly with our customers’ vision, through strategic collaboration between our engineering team, project management, and a trusted vendor base that shares our commitment to safety, quality, cost, and delivery. We continuously build and develop strategic alliances with high-quality vendors across various industries. This enables us to support diverse customer needs while maintaining the highest standards of excellence. We also develop advanced tooling to monitor vendor capabilities, providing interactive dashboards that allow us to quickly identify the best suppliers for your specific requirements. Our strategic approach helps us deliver products that exceed expectations, driving success for your business. |
Custom Cable Harness |
Frustrated by the industry standard lead time of months for custom cable harnesses, we have invested in ourselves to transform complex designs from imagination to reality in days. Utilizing state-of-the-art automated cable testers to quickly and accurately test continuity for every crimp in every wire of every harness. Automated wire processing equipment to measure, cut, and strip wire with precision. Our cable harness boards allow for the easy manufacturing of complex cable harnesses. IPC trained technicians assemble to the required routing requirements, test the harness directly on the board using the automatic testers, and utilize an automatic zip tie gun for quick and effective bundling. This streamlined process ensures high-quality, reliable cable assemblies that meet the most demanding specifications. |
Smart Torque Drivers |
Kolver smart torque drivers ensure every screw is tightened to exact specifications. They provide real-time feedback and detect issues immediately, preventing assembly errors and enhancing product reliability. This precision translates into consistent, high-quality outcomes for your projects. |
Fleet Management |
Comprehensive fleet management to ensure your products perform optimally after they leave our facility. Real-time tracking and support services help manage product performance, handle returns, and provide detailed insights into fleet status. This ongoing support means you can trust that your products will maintain their quality and reliability throughout their lifecycle. |

NPI Expertise |
We guide you through the entire new product introduction process with structured support. Our services include creating precise manufacturing drawings to ensure your product is made to exact specifications, comprehensive supply chain management to ensure timely delivery, and root cause analysis to address any production issues promptly and effectively. |
Kaizen Events and Lean Manufacturing |
We implement Kaizen events and lean manufacturing practices to continuously improve our processes and eliminate waste. Our approach includes evaluating the current state of your processes, identifying constraints, testing solutions, implementing improvements, and helping you maintain control. These practices enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and ensure high-quality outcomes. By focusing on incremental improvements, we deliver better value and performance for our customers, supporting their growth and success. |
Comprehensive Support Services |
We offer a range of services to support your new product implementation. Our rapid prototyping and rigorous testing validate your designs before full-scale production. We optimize your production timelines with efficient planning and scheduling, and our effective inventory management systems maintain optimal inventory levels to support production and reduce costs. Throughout the production process, we ensure the highest standards with continuous quality monitoring. Additionally, our ongoing technical support and training programs guarantee smooth product implementation and operation. |
At Carnegie Robotics, we believe that with the right partnership, anything is possible. Our commitment to quality and flexibility means we're here to support your unique needs and help turn your visions into reality. Let's work together to drive your business growth and success. |
