“I want to make sure that I’m getting a lot of thought leadership out there in the industry, with the hope that more and more people will get more accustomed to automation.” Gil Mayron
Automation is here with us, and has been taking place at a global level for a while now. For businesses that have embraced automation, the results speak for themselves.

- I got into 3D printing in 2008, and our company rapidly grew which led us to sell the company, but handled all the corporate development for the consumer division.
- I later started to look into all the automation stuff and found that it was very similar to 3d printing and started Cobot Nation.
- At Cobot Nation we do Cobots which are collaborative robotics that can work with or without a human.
- All the solutions we make work with humans, and we are the only US manufacturer of automation solutions that goes direct to the customer.
- 3d printing is inherently slow, and we are always trying to find a way to speed it up and so automation is one of the areas that saves time.
- Commercial Break
- I want to make sure that I’m getting a lot of thought leadership out there in the industry with the hope that more and more people will get more accustomed to automation.
- Automation allows for consistency and increased margins, and after COVID, we’re seeing a massive increase in automation;
- Right now I’m on a mission to get automation out there and define Cobots, as well as scale very, fast.
- The legacy brands which may still be strong now, may not survive when a startup comes out with a better and cheaper way of doing things.
- For entrepreneurs, enjoy the grind as it lasts, and life will get easier at the end if you do it right.
