About Techman Robot

Techman Robot was founded in 2016 and is a subsidiary of Quanta Computer, one of the world's largest contract electronics manufacturers. This parentage provides Techman with manufacturing scale and supply chain expertise that most cobot startups cannot match. The company's TM series collaborative robots are distinctive for their integrated camera and built-in vision system, which is incorporated into the robot's structure at the end of the arm rather than requiring a separate external vision setup.

The integrated vision approach simplifies setup significantly for vision-guided tasks such as pick-and-place, quality inspection, and bin picking, and has become a genuine differentiator in the cobot market. Techman's TMflow programming environment is graphical and drag-and-drop, enabling non-specialist operators to programme visual inspection and picking tasks without writing code.

Techman has expanded internationally with distribution across Europe, North America, and Asia Pacific. Their reputation for ease of integration and the practical advantages of built-in vision have driven adoption in electronics manufacturing, food production, and general assembly.

Key Products

• TM5 Series: Lightweight cobots with integrated vision; 700 and 900 mm reach variants.
• TM12 and TM14: Mid-payload cobots with 12 and 14 kg capacity for heavier collaborative tasks.

UK Market Presence

Techman Robot has authorised distributors across the UK and is well-represented at UK automation trade events. TM5 series cobots are available from approximately £25,000 to £35,000 installed through UK integrators. The integrated vision system reduces total installation cost compared to cobots that require separate vision setup. UK after-sales support is available through the distributor network.

Buying Used Techman Robot Equipment

A growing secondhand market for TM series cobots exists through UK and European dealers. Used TM5 units in good condition typically trade between £10,000 and £18,000. Camera calibration and joint condition are key checks. TMflow software updates continue actively, and older units can generally be brought to current firmware. Verify that the built-in camera is functioning correctly before purchase.
