Robotics & motion
6-axis collaborative arms, gripper tooling and trajectory programming for the full task, start to finish.
Systems engineering · Brașov, EU
We engineer machines that run themselves.
You bring the process you can't staff around the clock. One team designs the mechanics, the electronics and the software — and hands you a machine that runs itself, not a 200-page spec.

Two ways to work with us: commission a custom autonomous machine for your process — or host our flagship RobbaBobba unit in your venue.
The problem
Automation is easy to promise and hard to ship.
Most automation needs touch a dozen disciplines, and most vendors only own one of them.
01
You can't staff the repetitive, around-the-clock work.
02
Off-the-shelf machines never quite fit your process.
03
Integrators hand it over — then disappear.
You don't need another vendor. You need an engineering partner who owns the result.
What we do
One team for the whole machine.
The same people who design the mechanics write the control software and train the vision models. That's why our machines actually work together.
Electronics & PCB
Custom boards, power and control electronics, sensor integration and wiring designed for the field.
Control & software
Control architecture, error handling and recovery, backends and CI/CD that keep the machine running.
Computer vision & AI
Trained models for quality and safety events, wired into the live control loop.
Embedded & IoT
Low-power firmware, BLE connectivity, energy harvesting and companion apps for connected devices.
Mechatronics & prototyping
Mechanical design and in-house rapid prototyping — we iterate on real hardware, not slides.
Flagship · the proof
RobbaBobba — a robot that makes bubble tea, automatically.
Our proof of capability: an autonomous machine that takes an order, prepares a complete bubble-tea drink with a collaborative arm, seals it and serves it — with no one behind the counter. Designed, built and refined over four generations. It has already served real drinks in testing.
- ✓Every discipline, one machineMechanics, electronics, control software, vision, app and food-safety compliance — all ours.
- ✓Fresh, not from a tankEach drink made to order with calibrated dosing — consistent every time, hygienic and sealed.
- ✓Built for 24/7, captive venuesEngineered for uptime where a staffed counter can't be — airports, campuses, transit hubs, malls.
Dexterity
Precision is the whole game.
A machine that does the same thing perfectly, thousands of times, isn't luck — it's a collaborative arm placing, dosing and sealing within fine tolerances, cycle after cycle, with no one behind the counter.

We don't write specs. We ship hardware that runs.
From the first sketch to a machine working in the field, the same team carries it through — so nothing gets lost in a hand-off.
How we work
Concept to a machine that runs.
01
Define
We map the real-world workflow the machine must perform — and the constraints around it.
02
Design
Mechanics, electronics and software architecture, designed together from day one.
03
Build & iterate
We prototype on real hardware and refine, generation by generation, until it's robust.
04
Deploy & support
Calibration, safety sign-off and a system that keeps running in the field.
Why RobbaWorks
The difference between a demo and a machine that lasts.
The robotic-kiosk graveyard is full of well-funded demos. What ships and survives is engineering discipline, reliability and compliance — built in, not bolted on.
🇪🇺
Made in Europe
Engineered and assembled in Brașov for reliability and uptime — with local service, not a container from overseas.
🛡️
Compliance by design
CE-readiness, food-contact and hygiene standards, and cobot safety (ISO 10218 / ISO/TS 15066) built in from the start.
🧩
One team, end to end
Mechanics, electronics and software under one roof — one partner accountable for the whole result.
⚙️
Engineering rigor
A functional-safety mindset carried over from automotive: controls discipline, testing and documentation.

What lasts isn't the flashiest demo — it's safety, hygiene and reliability built in from the first sketch, documented from the design stage.
🍵
Food-safe by design
Food-contact materials and a sealed cup, touched only by the machine — designed to EC 1935/2004 and EC 852/2004, with documentation.
🧼
Automated hygiene
Cleaning and rinse cycles run automatically between servings, so every cup is as clean and consistent as the last.
🛟
Fail-safe motion
E-stop and safe-state recovery with collaborative force limits, following ISO 10218 / ISO/TS 15066 cobot-safety thinking.
What it does today
- Designed, built and supported end to end — mechanics, electronics, software, vision.
- Makes each output fresh to order, then seals and delivers it.
- Built to run automatically in captive, high-footfall venues.
- Backed by CE and food-safety documentation.
On the roadmap
- A broader menu and more product combinations.
- First public locations rolling out across Romania.
- Connected fleet monitoring and remote diagnostics.
The team
Built by engineers who ship hardware.
RobbaWorks brings 25+ years of automotive embedded, functional-safety and model-based systems-engineering discipline to autonomous machines — the same rigor behind safety-critical software, applied to a machine that runs in the real world. We don't write specs; we deliver machines that work.
FAQ
Questions engineers ask.
Do you build custom machines, or only RobbaBobba?
Custom. RobbaBobba is our flagship proof — we design and build autonomous machines and automation cells end to end for your process.
What disciplines do you cover in-house?
Mechanics, electronics/PCB, control software, computer vision and mobile/cloud apps — one accountable team, concept to field.
Is it CE / food-safety compliant?
We engineer to CE marking, EC 1935/2004 (food-contact) and EC 852/2004 (hygiene), and cobot safety (ISO 10218 / ISO/TS 15066), documented from the design stage.
Where are you based, and do you support after deployment?
Brașov, EU. We provide local service, calibration, safety sign-off and remote diagnostics — we don't hand off and disappear.
How do we start without committing to a full build?
Begin with a fixed-scope feasibility study and a working proof-of-concept cell — you see it run before you scale it.
How big a project can you take?
From a single robotic cell to a fleet of self-service units.
