Fully automated screwdriver provides higher quality and less injuries

The Danish company Spin Robotics celebrates its two-year anniversary with two victories: a tribute from Danfoss on the company's first product and a new domicile in Odense.

One of the companies that has already had good experiences with Spin Robotics' fully automated screwdriver is Danfoss:


”The results we have seen so far from Spin Robotics SD35 are very promising. We expect that the fully automated screwdriver will increase both our quality and productivity. At the same time, we spare our employees and we can offer them more interesting tasks”, says platform architect Kristian A.F. Revall Thorsen, Danfoss.


Simple setting and high documentation

The advanced fully automated EOAT (End-Of-Arm-Tool) screwdriver not only ensures higher quality, productivity, safety, and maximum traceability in production. It also provides a better working environment. Today, assemble workers typically work with manual screwdrivers in their hands for many hours and therefore risk serious work injuries because of the small jerks it gives wrists, elbows, and shoulders.


“I have looked at Danish employees and seen how damaging the work of screwing in screws can be, even with semi-automatic screwdrivers. Employees over the age of 40 typically have some form of support bandage on their elbow or wrist as a sign that they have destroyed their body by making the same movements day in and day out,” says CTO of Spin Robotics, Thomas Sølund.

The options that used to be for fully automated screwing processes has before only been relevant for large cycle productions because they are expensive and difficult to adjust. They typically require many engineering hours on setup and programming. With SD35, a solution can be set up in just one hour instead of at least half a week. The new tool is just as easy to program as Lego. Therefore, Spin Robotics' SD35 makes it possible to fully automate screwdriving tasks, also for smaller companies.


The most collaborative screwdriver on the market

SD35 has a simple programming and is adjusted by simply pointing the tool down at the screw holes with a special Teach pin. Then it will repeat the screwing, even change bits, and continuously document batches, screws, torque curves as well as historical data and errors in screws and applications. The quality of the work is so high that the robot can, for example, cross-clamp printed circuit boards so that they do not crack in the ceramic coating - a normally very demanding screw task.


SD35 makes building production cells simple because the tool does not require its own cell but is simply mounted directly on a collaborative robot. SD35 has the narrowest head on the market and is equipped with a patented safety technology that makes it the safest and therefore, most collaborative on the market. This also retains the collaborative element in the production plant, as shielding is not necessary. The automatic bit changer provides high flexibility, which makes it easy to adjust the production as needed.


The distributors are in place in Germany, the Netherlands, Czech Republic, and Denmark, so for a start Spin Robotics is equipped to sell in 13 European countries. Processes and systems for financial management, inventory management, CRM, customer support and shipping are also in place so that growth can continue smoothly.


“With our new valuation, we have shown that in record time we have leveraged every penny we have received in funding and loans by four times. We have simply scaled up constantly from day one,” says Teit Silberling, who became full-time CEO of Spin Robotics on January 1st and therefore, has the steering wheel on a growth journey where the challenge hasn´t been to obtain cash, but to get enough raw materials.


The valuation has been set by the investment expert Keystone and the reactions from investors have been positive. Therefore, Spin Robotics has opened for an investment in 10 percent of the company, which is today owned by Teit Silberling and CTO Thomas Sølund.


Facts about Spin Robotics


Originally, Spin Robotics technology was developed by CTO Thomas Sølund, who started the company in 2019 after more than eight years of employment as a Technology Manager at the Danish Technological Institute. Here he met Teit Silberling, who has previously worked as Business Developer at Erhvervshus Sydjylland, Business Manager for the national drone cluster and international test center, UAS Denmark and as an entrepreneur.

Spin Robotics employed its first employee in 2020, but now has 11 employees. In a short time, the company is expected to have its UR+ certification and thereby a place in the robot industry's most comprehensive ecosystem of certified add-on products.
