Commercial robotics · Sourcing, safety, parts and education
You know your operation.We know the robotics market.We bring the two together.
LIGC Robotics helps businesses and organizations navigate the commercial robotics market — from sourcing and assessment to parts, support, safety and education.
Autonomous material movement · a category, not a product
Start here
Where do you want to start?
Five ways in. Pick the one that matches where you actually are.
- I know I want a robot. Help me find the right one. We match the job to the machine, compare what is actually available, and take you through purchase, lease, rental or robot-as-a-service where those options exist. Robot matching and sourcing
- I have a problem. Tell me whether a robot can solve it. We analyse the work before anyone shows you equipment. Sometimes the answer is a robot. Sometimes it is a process change, and we will say so. Robotics Opportunity Assessment
- I want to make the job safer. Can a robot do the dangerous work instead? Lifting, repetition, confined spaces, heights, heat, chemicals, the shift nobody wants to cover. We look at what you would rather not hand to a person. Robotics for hazardous work
- I already have a robot. Help me find the part or the support I need. Tell us the manufacturer, the model and what failed. We help identify the component and locate a source or a service path. Parts and support request
- I want to understand robotics. Assess, educate and train us. Sessions and workshops for operations teams, business leaders and workforce programs — built around your operation, not a generic curriculum. Education and training
We know the robotics market
We don’t build the machines. We know the market that does.
LIGC Robotics researches commercial robot manufacturers, platforms and applications full time, so you don’t have to navigate the market alone. We identify what fits the job, source the options worth considering, help coordinate deployment and setup, and stay involved through training, support, maintenance coordination and parts.
You are not expected to become a robotics expert. That is our side of the table.
Talk through a category
LIGC Robotics is an independent robotics sourcing and solutions company. Imagery represents categories and applications, not specific manufacturer products or affiliations.
Safety
Can a robot do the dangerous work instead?
Some jobs are dangerous because of where they happen. Some are dangerous because of how many times a day someone has to do them. Robotics is worth looking at for both.
- Protect people Take the exposure out of the job before you take the cost out of it.
- Reduce exposure Fewer hours spent in the places that hurt people over a career.
- Keep the operation moving Cover the shifts and the tasks that are hardest to staff.
Inspection · confined and hazardous environments
Work worth handing to a machine
- Confined and tight spaces
- Hazardous inspection
- Repetitive lifting
- Difficult or high-risk cleaning
- Elevated inspection
- Heat, cold and exposure
- Strenuous repetitive tasks
A robot that removes exposure has earned part of its keep before anyone calculates a payback period.
We’ve done our homework
We don’t find a robot on Google.
A demonstration tells you what a machine does on a good day. It tells you nothing about what it costs to keep running, who fixes it, how long the battery really lasts, or whether anyone can get you a part in a year.

Technology
Software and connectivity · Cybersecurity and privacy · Durability and materials · Maintenance
-
Evidence
Real-world performance · Manufacturer and vendor reputation · Vendor access
That is the difference between selling whatever robot is available and telling you whether one fits your operation and your economics.
Robotics does not stand still. We develop relationships across manufacturers, distributors, integrators and other robotics-industry sources, and continually research emerging products, capabilities and price points as the market moves.
LIGC Robotics is independent. It does not manufacture robots, hold inventory, or act as an authorised dealer for any brand.
One workflow, examined properly.
For the customer who has a problem rather than a shortlist. A fixed-scope engagement on a single primary workflow: we analyse the work, research the relevant categories, compare viable candidates, and put a written recommendation in front of you.
Founding client $1,500 Stated plainly. Never behind a form.
What it includes
- Discovery
- Qualification call and workflow selection
- Site walkthrough
- On site, one primary workflow or application
- Baseline
- Current-state process, labor and volumes
- Feasibility
- Robotics feasibility analysis and relevant category research
- Comparison
- Candidate solution comparison where appropriate
- Economics
- Preliminary cost and payback scenarios
- Readiness
- Site-readiness considerations, risks and limitations
- Deliverable
- Written findings and an executive findings presentation
- Timeline
- — Stated at qualification, once the workflow is known
What it is not
- Engineering design
- Not included. LIGC does not engineer robot cells.
- Safety certification
- Not included. LIGC does not perform machine-safety certification.
- Guaranteed return
- Not offered. Scenarios are preliminary, not promises.
- Equipment sale
- Not a sales pitch. A recommendation not to proceed is a valid outcome.
The recommendation is one of four
- Proceed
- Pilot
- Investigate
- Do not proceed
A recommendation not to automate is a valid outcome, and it is delivered as plainly as any other. You are paying for a better decision, not for a robot.
Parts and support
Already have a robot? Let’s find what you need.
If we don’t have it, we source it.
A machine that is down is a machine that is costing you. Tell us what you have and what failed, and we go looking — across manufacturers, distributors and service networks.
- Manufacturer
- Model
- Part number
- Photo
- Problem
- Urgency
LIGC does not stock parts and does not operate a repair depot. This is sourcing assistance: we identify the component and find you a route to it.
From the first conversation to the machine doing the work.
Not every engagement runs the whole chain. Most start in the middle, wherever you already are.
-
Assess
Analyse the work, the floor, the volumes and the people.
-
Match
Identify the categories and the candidates that actually fit.
-
Source
Quotes and demonstrations, and a purchase, lease, rental or RaaS comparison where those options exist.
-
Coordinate
Site readiness, vendor coordination and deployment tracking.
-
Train
Get your people confident with the machine before it has to earn its keep.
-
Support
Parts sourcing, service and maintenance coordination, and tuning the process once it is running.
We build and maintain relationships across the robotics market — manufacturers, distributors, integrators, service providers and other industry sources — and source through them where a relationship is established. LIGC does not manufacture robots, is not an authorised dealer for any brand, and is not the technical integrator: it does not perform machine-safety certification or carry out repairs itself. Where specialist capability is needed we say so and help you find it.
Talk to LIGCRobotics doesn’t stand still
Robots aren’t new.What they can do is changing.
Industrial robots have been bolted to factory floors since the 1960s. What changed is not the idea — it is that the machines can now leave the cage, find their own way around a building, and pay for themselves at the scale of an ordinary business.
What actually changed
-
Batteries
A full shift on one charge, instead of a tether or a swap every two hours.
-
Sensors
Depth, lidar and vision cheap enough to put on a floor scrubber.
-
Navigation
Machines that map a building instead of following a wire in the floor.
-
AI and software
Handling the messy, variable cases that used to need a person.
-
Manufacturing
Volume production dragging prices into the range of a mid-sized operation.
Humanoids are the category everyone photographs, and the one furthest from routine commercial deployment. They belong on this page as one line item among eight, which is exactly how we treat them.
You don’t have to become a robotics expert to start using robotics.

About LIGC Robotics
Operations experience first. Robotics second.
LIGC Robotics is built on operations leadership, process improvement and time spent in industrial environments — the side of the table the customer is on. The robotics knowledge is the research we do so you do not have to.
We are direct about what we are not. LIGC does not manufacture robots, hold inventory, act as an authorised dealer, engineer robot cells, certify machine safety, or run a repair depot.
Based in El Paso, Texas. Built to serve nationwide.
