Used Robots & Robotic Parts

Suited to performing repetitive tasks,Industrial Robots, new or used, typically perform jobs that are difficult, dangerous or dull. They lift heavy objects, weld, paint, handle chemicals, and perform monotonous assembly work. Human workers are not always reliable, energetic nor easily trained. They are likewise, not always cheap, and those with the desired skills are not always available. These same trends continue to intensify.

Antenen Research is the industry leader for used robots, specializing, but not limiting itself, in assisting smaller companies, which do not want or are unable to make a large capital outlay, especially if it is for their first robot. Although prices of new robots continue to decline, a used system from Antenen Research still represents significant cost savings, in some cases, more than 50 percent. We are especially knowledgeable about first-time users. For a first-time robot installation we advise the "neophyte user" to pick an simple task like machine loading or parts handling rather than something more complex like trimming or polishing. We let them know we will provide them lifetime support. Often times training is included with a purchase of a quality used robot from Antenen Research.

When it comes to selecting a used robot, Antenen Research offers the largest inventory in North America, with at least 300 units to select from always on hand. We maintain this selection because we understand that numerous factors should be considered to ensure a successful project, and having a wide selection of robot resources is the start of a successful solution.

Antenen Research makes sure our buyers understand what has been done to the robot in the way of rebuilding/refurbishing. Refurbishing rebuilds the robot from the first axis up. Assuming proper maintenance schedules and practices are followed, this process provides an expected life span about equal to a new robot.
