Newtech Intelligent Automation

We are incredibly proud to announce that Newtech has successfully achieved certification as an Automate UK / BARA Certified Robot Integrator - a rigorous, independently audited standard that recognises the very highest levels of competence, quality and professionalism in robotic systems integration. This certification, administered by Automate UK in association with @BARA (British Automation & Robot Association), is the UK's benchmark standard for companies that design, manufacture, programme, install and support robotic automation solutions. Achieving it requires a thorough onsite audit of our operational procedures, safety processes and project delivery methods, and we are delighted to have passed. For us, this is so much more than a certificate on the wall. It is a formal, independent validation of the standards our team works to every single day, and a testament to the dedication, expertise and commitment that everyone at Newtech brings to their work. As a business with over three decades of experience in the design and manufacture of ultrasonic slicing, cutting, portioning and robotic automation systems, this accreditation reinforces our position as a trusted, world-class partner for businesses seeking intelligent automation solutions. We look forward to continuing to push the boundaries of what is possible in automation and to delivering exceptional results for our customers around the world. #RobotIntegrator #Automation #Robotics #UKManufacturing #IntelligentAutomation #FoodAutomation #CertifiedIntegrator

We're thrilled to announce that Newtech has taken on an additional unit in Stoke Mill, marking the most significant expansion in our recent history. Over the past two years, our business has more than doubled in size. Our team has grown, demand for our ultrasonic cutting, robotics and automation solutions has accelerated, and we simply ran out of space. The new 10,000 sq ft factory will transform how we operate: ⚙️ Tripling our manufacturing capacity - the new building becomes our dedicated mechanical and electrical build space, meaning we can produce more systems for our customers, faster. ⚙️ A dedicated R&D area - our existing workshop becomes a focused software and development environment, enabling us to push further into advanced technologies and physical AI. ⚙️ A demo and virtual reality room - giving customers and prospects a hands-on experience of our solutions in action. ⚙️Room to grow - space for more talented people to join our team as we continue to scale. Manufacturing capacity increases begin immediately, with the full upgrade programme completing over the next 12 months. There are exciting times ahead. Watch this space. #IntelligentAutomation #UltrasonicCutting #Robotics #FoodTech #Manufacturing #UKManufacturing #Growth #Expansion #Innovation

Clean cuts. Zero drag. Portioning traybakes is always satisfying to watch. This video shows our robotic portioning system in action - combining a 6-axis robotic arm with ultrasonic cutting technology to deliver precise, consistent portions every single time. Why ultrasonic cutting? ➡️ Cleaner cuts through even the stickiest products ➡️ Less waste, less crumbling, better presentation ➡️ No heat - product quality stays intact What’s more, the cutting blade also acts as a pusher, separating each traybake portion after cutting for smoother, faster downstream handling. #Portioning #UltrasonicCutting #BakeryAutomation #FoodManufacturing

Before the finished machine, there's the trial. Before the trial, there's the training. We've pulled back the curtain on the R&D work that goes into every Newtech solution. Here we are at ABB's facility - home of the FlexPicker robot arm - to put this remarkable piece of technology through its paces, picking up sandwich packs as part of the development of our upcoming robotic packing line. The end goal is fully automated pick and place solution using speed, precision, and zero compromise on product handling. This is what brings a great machine to market - not shortcuts, just a commitment to getting it right. #ABBRobotics #FlexPicker #RoboticPacking #FoodAutomation #RandD #Newtech #BehindTheScenes

Automation isn't just about efficiency - it's about precision, reliability, and pushing the boundaries of what's possible. This footage is from one of our most ambitious projects to date: a fully bespoke robotic dry-aged beef warehouse storage facility, designed, manufactured, and commissioned entirely in-house. Powered by ABB robotic arms, the system manages 6,690 custom storage baskets across racking standing 8.7 metres high - processing an average of 85 tonnes of beef per month with pinpoint robotic precision. The result? A fully automated warehouse storage solution delivering: ✅ Significantly reduced manual labour ✅ 24/7 operation with no shift limitations ✅ Seamless integration with existing site software ✅ Lower running costs and near-zero downtime While this solution was built specifically for dry-aged beef, the same automation technology can be applied to virtually any warehouse storage environment.

Processing 2,000 breasts per hour, cutting eight breasts simultaneously, the bespoke RoboSONIC Inline is raising the bar for cooked chicken portioning. With a 750mm wide ultrasonic cutting blade mounted to a robotic arm and a positively driven conveyor belt, it delivers the positional accuracy needed to hold a consistent 6mm cut across every breast, through every cycle. What ultrasonic cutting does particularly well on cooked poultry is preserve the integrity of the slice. Rather than pushing through the product, the blade's high-frequency vibration separates the muscle fibres cleanly, with minimal force. The result is a smooth cut face, good structural integrity and slices that hold their shape without compression or distortion. For retail packs and ready meal lines, that visible quality difference matters. To discuss your production requirements, get in touch. #ChickenPortioning #FoodManufacture #FoodProduction

We've just released a new video showcasing the RoboSONIC IV, our in-line robotic cutting solution designed for the precise portioning of sandwiches, wraps and ciabatta. Combining ultrasonic cutting with a vision system that automatically detects product position and orientation, this machine delivers consistent, high-quality cuts at production line speed. With a 6-axis robot, intuitive touch screen interface and remote access capability, the RoboSONIC IV is built for food manufacturers who demand accuracy, reliability and ease of use.

For a UK manufacturing business, the SafeContractor accreditation carries weight. It demonstrates that our health and safety policies, procedures, and practices have been independently assessed and meet the high standards required by one of the UK's most respected safety schemes. It’s a formal recognition that our team operates to a standard our customers, partners, and people can rely on. We’re proud to have been warded the accreditation for another year. #SafeContractor #FoodManufacturing #Automation #FoodIndustry

We're delighted to close out April having shipped 4 machines to both UK and international customers. It’s a fantastic milestone that reflects the hard work and commitment of our entire team. From build through to final dispatch, delivery and commissioning, everyone involved brought their best to ensure our customers received exactly what they were promised, on time and to the standard they expect. #FoodProduction #FoodManufacturing #Automation

Not every production challenge has an off-the-shelf solution. This trial, features a robotic arm fitted with an hygienic finger gripper from Schmalz, engineered specifically to pick and place cupcakes from their moulds without compromising their shape, texture, or finish. Delicate product handling at this level requires custom thinking - from gripper geometry to pressure calibration - and what you're seeing here is that thinking in action. It's early stage, it's precise, and it's a glimpse into how we approach challenges. #Automation #FreshFoodProduction #Robotics
