Feasibility Studies

Technical Certainty Before You Automate – Not every process can be assessed with confidence right away. With complex parts, demanding process steps, or variable tolerances, it’s often unclear whether automation will perform as reliably as planned. That’s exactly where the QUANTEC feasibility study comes in.
We test critical process points under real-world conditions and assess whether your process is technically ready for automation — giving you clarity early, before design, procurement, and integration begin.

When Does a Feasibility Study Make Sense?

A feasibility study is especially valuable when technical uncertainties exist or a process can’t be assessed on paper alone.

Typical questions include:

Can the part be gripped reliably?
Can the robot perform the process reliably?
Can the target quality be achieved with consistent repeatability?
Are cycle time and process flow realistic?
Do the gripper, tooling, or sensors perform as intended?
Do material, surface finish, or part tolerances affect the result?

What We Test

We focus on the factors that are critical to stable, reliable automation.

Areas we test include:

Grippability, part pickup, and process stability
Positioning, repeatability, and tolerances
Cycle time, motion sequences, and potential interference contours
Suitability of grippers, tools, and sensors
Process quality — for example in sanding, deburring, polishing, or sandblasting

What Safety Concept?

The findings from your feasibility study feed directly into the safety planning for your automation solution. This lets us account for potential hazard zones, operating procedures, and required safeguards before the system design is finalized.

Early identification of safety-relevant requirements
Support in planning suitable protective concepts
Consideration of operation, setup, maintenance, and troubleshooting
A solid basis for the later risk assessment and technical documentation
Greater confidence in designing access points, protected areas, and safety functions
A clear basis for a compliant, practical implementation

Your Results

After the feasibility study, you’ll receive a clear, traceable technical assessment.

This gives you a solid foundation for your next project decision.

It can include:

An assessment of technical feasibility
Documentation of the tests performed
An evaluation of quality, cycle time, and process stability
Notes on risks or limitations
A recommendation for next steps
Do material, surface finish, or part tolerances affect the result?
