Processing

Part Processing Platform

One perception stack drives grinding, cutting, sanding, machining, and spraying. The camera stays in charge so every operation adapts in real time.

Camera-first automation

Every Pivot cell starts with vision. We scan the actual part, generate toolpaths on the fly, and control force and motion based on what the camera sees. That's how we handle part variation today and extend to new processes tomorrow.

Operations we automate

Grinding

Autonomous grinding with adaptive force control and real-time vision feedback. Proven today in foundry production.

Cutting

Gate removal and part separation built on the same camera-first planner. Coming online with current partners.

Learn more →

Sanding

Surface prep and blending tasks where consistency matters more than brute force. Adaptive motion keeps finishes uniform.

Learn more →

Machining

Vision-directed machining for features that need positional accuracy without weeks of programming.

Learn more →

Spraying

Coating and finishing passes guided by live perception to maintain coverage and thickness.

How It Works

No CAD. No Programming. Just Precision.

1

Scan Each Part

Advanced 3D vision captures the actual geometry in seconds, no CAD model required. Works with castings and other complex surfaces.

2

Detect Grinding Targets

Software pinpoints exactly where material needs to come off and prioritizes each feature based on your tolerance requirements.

3

Adapt to Variation

AI-driven planning adjusts robot movements in real time to account for natural part-to-part variation, thermal drift, and in-process feedback.

4

Process with Precision

Adaptive force control executes the path with consistent pressure, compensating for tool wear to deliver repeatable 1mm precision.

Add-ons

Pivot systems are built to evolve. The same perception, AI planning, and adaptive control layer extends across tooling and part families.

Add new capabilities without rewriting the stack.

+

Self-tending

Automated part loading and unloading for small to medium parts. Keeps cycle times high while minimizing operator touch time.

+

Bin pick

Vision-guided bin picking to automate part presentation and close the loop on material handling.

+

Tooling package

Expanded tool library and quick-change systems. Software-defined profiles bring new SKUs online in minutes, not weeks.

+

Sub-mm precision

Enhanced control systems for sub-millimeter tolerance applications on aluminum, titanium, and aerospace alloys.

Integration-ready Processing

Material Handling

We tie into existing cranes, conveyors, and cells. Add self-tending or bin picking when you're ready.

Quality Loop

The same vision stack that drives processing feeds inspection and quality analytics for closed-loop operations.

Data + Monitoring

Processing cells stream data into the Pivot platform for uptime tracking, predictive maintenance, and fleet insights.
