What Adept Technology does

OMRON Robotics is the robotics division of OMRON Corporation, a Japanese multinational conglomerate (NYSE: OMRN) specializing in industrial automation, electronics, and healthcare equipment. The division offers a comprehensive portfolio spanning autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) — the LD (up to 250 kg per legacy spec, 150-300 kg per new generation), OL (up to 450 kg), MD (up to 900 kg), and HD (up to 1500 kg) Series — collaborative robots (TM Series and TM S Series), and industrial robots (SCARA, parallel, articulated) plus industrial part feeders. The hardware is unified through the Robotics Integrated Controller and supported by three proprietary software platforms: FLOW Core for AMR fleet management, TMflow for cobot programming (with versioned releases such as TMflow 2.24 and a TMSimulator feature), and ACE Software (including ACE PackXpert) for industrial robot control. The new LD Series announced for January 2026 carries ISO 3691-4:2023 compliance, ≤30 minute charge times, and 240-360 degree safety scanner coverage.

The company sells almost exclusively to enterprise manufacturers through direct field sales with a consultative, quote-based model; pricing is not publicly disclosed and contracts are typically multi-year. Revenue derives from three streams: robotics hardware sales (the largest by ticket size), software licenses and subscriptions tied to recurring update releases, and service and support (technical service, documentation, downloads, product registration, AMR license activation). Customers are global and span automotive (Grupo Antolin), pharmaceuticals (Sanofi, HIPRA), medical/dental (TePe), logistics and e-commerce (Brd. Klee, Vetipak), general manufacturing (Trelleborg Livorno, Laser Q Markings, FlexLink, Samas), and food manufacturing (Ice Bakers). The company maintains a multi-channel marketing presence combining case-study-driven content marketing, trade-show presence (Automate 2026), and corporate social channels (LinkedIn, YouTube), with localized web content in eight languages.

The corporate parent is OMRON Corporation; no separate funding rounds, headcount figures, or division-level revenue are disclosed in the available data. Adept Technology was acquired by OMRON in 2015 and its operations were integrated into the OMRON Robotics division, which is the entity described above.
