When you’re running lean, scaling output can feel impossible. For Vahlco Wheels, operator hours were maxed, and machine uptime was capped by manual tending.
Instead of adding headcount or reconfiguring their workflow, they turned to Phillips OPTO’s Application Engineering Team for a better solution — one that delivered fast.
In just 48 hours, Phillips installed and programmed a Universal Robot to tend Vahlco’s existing Haas machine. No cages. No infrastructure changes. Just smart automation—fully integrated and operational in 2 days.
Now? The robot feeds the machine with minimal human input, and Vahlco’s team is free to focus on higher-value work.
“The robot keeps the machine fed all day. We load it a couple of times, then focus on other jobs.” — Vahlco Wheels Team

From repetitive labor to round-the-clock output — see how a single cobot is reshaping Vahlco’s operations.
OEMs don’t have time for theory — they need results. Vahlco proved that one robot + one smart partner can reshape your production line in days, not months.
Phillips OPTO brings the expertise, speed, and ROI clarity that OEMs demand — with a roadmap that scales.
