From Actuator to System

Overview
Founded by a PhD in robotics and former CTO with a background spanning startups, industry, and research labs, Towa Robotics is supported by an on-demand network of experts. Together, we support every stage of your complex projects, from early R&D to industrialization.
Robotics hardware startups face complex challenges. Our role is to identify and help you avoid them before they cause months of delay.
We quickly develop prototypes with production requirements in mind from the start, to ensure a smooth transition to manufacturing.
