The world of industrial automation is complex, and we’re here to help you navigate it. After thousands of successful deployments, we’ve defined key strategies to maximize project outcomes. From a free discovery session to a streamlined e-commerce ordering experience, these services are designed for your convenience.
Here are four ways Vention supports you prior to deployment to ensure a successful project:
1. Schedule a discovery session
An industrial automation project should always begin by speaking with a human. While many companies create barriers to direct communication, we prioritize putting our experts front and center, so they’re always available to assist in your automation journey.
On the Vention website, you can easily schedule a meeting under “Book a free video call.” During this personalized discovery session, we’ll demonstrate the Vention platform and delve into your specific needs, processes, challenges, and goals. This initial conversation is to understand your project and set clear expectations of what can be achieved.
2. Develop digital twin
After the discovery call, the next step is to develop a digital twin using MachineBuilder, Vention’s intuitive 3D CAD environment. Collaborate with a Vention Application Engineer to create a comprehensive digital twin that encompasses mechanical design, programming, and simulation.
This near-accurate digital replica of the physical machine enables you to simulate robotic programs and validate program behavior in a realistic virtual environment prior to deployment. By designing, programming, and simulating your digital twin prior to committing capex, you gain full visibility into your solution and de-risk deployment.
3. Receive priced bill of material
See your bill of material (BOM), pricing, and part specifications updated in real-time as you add or remove parts from a MachineBuilder design. With real-time pricing, gain instant visibility into specific details about your design to better plan your project and calculate return on investment.
In addition, part dimensions, weight, 2D drawings, and technical specifications, such as moments of inertia and load capacity, are also now available directly within the 3D environment, making it faster to validate your design.
4. Order and deploy
Now that you have designed, programmed, and simulated your design with a Vention Application Engineer, it’s time to order and deploy. Choose between different deployment options, from assembly services to turnkey delivery.
Navigate through the self-checkout process in a few simple steps, securely pay, and receive your full order in just a few days. This streamlined process is akin to a typical e-commerce experience, making it quick and simple.
These four steps are crucial to the success of Vention clients and take place before any financial commitment. In our continued effort to democratize industrial automation, we believe in the value of connecting and collaborating with a human from the outset. This approach opens the playing field to more manufacturers, fosters successful projects, and establishes strong relationships for ongoing and future collaborations.
Hear from real Vention clients
“Vention offers a lot of additional value on top of the parts/robots they offer. I mean, where else can you design a system, get assistance with the design, and check robot reach for free? Unbelievable extra value.”
“Your customer service is outstanding and second to none. Whenever I’ve asked what if, or can you? Your team has been willing to say why not and worked with my team to develop and implement almost impossible solutions.”
“Vention was very supportive from the design to actual delivery.”
“Great assistance in designing and reviewing the custom stand. The lead time was as indicated, and the stand came assembled perfectly.”
