From incompatible machines to high startup costs and complex setups, the road to a fully automated production line is filled with obstacles. At Tokimeku, we’ve seen these challenges — and we’ve built our approach to specifically fix them.
What are the challenges?
Machines Don't Communicate With Each Other
Many manufacturer have a mix of old and new equipment, often from different vendors. These machines use different communication protocols and were never designed to be connected.
Automation Is Too Expensive
High upfront costs scare many businesses away from automation. A full system overhaul may seems risky and expensive.
Staff Training
Even the most advanced systems need the right people behind them. Without proper training, teams may struggle to operate or maintain new equipment.
Don't Know Where To Begin
Automation is a big goal — but without a clear roadmap, it’s easy to get stuck. With so many moving parts, choosing where to begin can be overwhelming.
