In late 2019, our team at Akeratos LLC launched its first efforts toward process improvement with a machine shop robotics cell. Today, our original idea has evolved into a much larger endeavor than ever imagined, with a continued focus on constant improvement, problem-solving, and streamlined operations. Find out how our team is continuing to bring expertise locally by becoming a Certified Systems Integrator for Universal Robots in Wichita, Kansas. Learn more about the prestigious certification below!
Joel Koripalli, an automation engineer at Akeratos, has dedicated his time to integrating and programming a collaborative robot while developing a user-friendly program to run more than 300 different part numbers on a single machine cell. Through his years of work on developing a robotics cell, Joel was required to attend extensive training to understand best how to operate and program the robot. After successfully automating the machine tending application and writing exclusive programming for the robot, our team at Akeratos wanted to find a way to help share our expertise with other local companies. Becoming a Certified Systems Integrator with Universal Robots has allowed us to do so at a local level. Today, Joel’s position as an automation engineer allows him help customers understand, analyze, and develop automated solutions for problems in the workplace using a collaborative robot.
Universal Robots is an organization dedicated to developing industrial collaborative robots to automate and streamline repetitive industrial processes.

“Becoming a Certified Systems Integrator allows us to further provide local expertise for Universal Robots in Wichita. At Akeratos, we specialize in machine tending with robots, and with this new certification, we can represent local companies.
