Kassow Robots, a developer of 7-axis industrial cobot solutions for machine tending, material handling, dispensing, and various other applications, has established a U.S.-based team focused on sales and support.
Kassow Robots is part of Bosch Rexroth, which has been its majority owner since 2022. The company has named Jim Adamski, Collin Ayres, and Chris Hapsias to support Kassow Robots’ sales partners, system integrators, and distributors in the United States. Adamski and Ayres serve as regional channel partner managers while Hapsias is a technical support engineer.
“This team will allow us to work closely with our system integrators and distributors in the United States and help extend our reach to new sales partners and markets,” said Dieter Pletscher, Global Sales Manager at Kassow Robots.
Jim Adamski is focused on working with the U.S. partner network east of the Mississippi River and in Iowa. He joined the Kassow Robots team earlier this year and has previous experience with Bosch Rexroth. He’s worked in the factory automation industry for more than 30 years. Adamski looks forward to helping U.S. companies automate their operations efficiently and manage labor challenges.
“Kassow Robots has a great lineup of 7-axis robots that are easy to set up and program,” Adamski said. “There are a vast array of potential applications that these cobots are equipped to handle because of their flexibility, including machine tending, welding, dispensing, and palletizing.”
Collin Ayres recently joined the Kassow Robots team after receiving his mechanical engineering degree from the University of Nebraska, Lincoln. As Regional Channel Partner Manager, he focuses on helping Kassow Robots expand its presence in North America and supporting sales partners in the western part of the country.
The latest addition to the U.S. team is technical support engineer Chris Hapsias. He is responsible for providing technical support and training for Kassow Robots’ U.S. distributor network. He brings four years of factory automation experience, specifically in the autonomous mobile robot (AMR) space.
Kassow Robots’ 7-axis lightweight cobots offer small footprints and increased maneuverability. The unique seventh axis, or “wrist joint,” enables continuous dispensing, welding, and material removal applications, regardless of access angle, without the need to reorient the arm. The cobots are easy to program and operate after a short introduction, allowing small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) without robotics specialists to implement automation cost-effectively and independently.
