The two companies became acquainted through their mutual capabilities in the robotic coating automation industry and are now working together to pursue projects for which a sovereign presence is required. “We’ll work with the US State Department for approval of any technology transfer for ASA,” said Josh Tuttle, Aerobotix Business Development Manager. “We’ll also help ASA in other ways. For example, we can save them years of costly development work by sharing how to robotically spray FIREX™ RX-2390 Thermal Protection System coatings for missile manufacturing.” Aerobotix and ASA are both turn-key robotic integration companies with specialised capabilities in the precise application of paints and performance coatings.

SoftIron, which is soon to open the first-ever base-level computer manufacturing facility on Australian soil – proudly announces its newest flagship offering, HyperCloud – the world’s first fully turnkey, totally integrated and supported, Intelligent Cloud Fabric.
