Our mission

Take people out of hazardous, repetitive and precision-critical jobs, and put well-engineered machines there instead.

Blasting the inside of a storage tank, peening a gearbox part to specification, or flashing and testing thousands of circuit boards are jobs where people get hurt, get tired, or get it slightly wrong.

We build the robot that does it the same way every time, so your team can supervise the process instead of standing inside it.

Solutions

Five lines of work, one engineering team

Every system is built around your part, your site and your standard. We start from the process, not from a catalogue.

Surface treatment

Tank surface inspection robots

Robotic systems that blast and coat the walls of large storage tanks, keeping operators out of confined, dusty and toxic spaces while giving a consistent surface profile and film thickness.

  • Abrasive blasting of tank walls
  • Uniform paint and coating application
  • Remote operation from outside the tank

Special purpose machines

Shot peening and conformal coating

Robotic cells for controlled surface processes on high-value parts: shot peening of aerospace components and selective conformal coating of circuit boards, with repeatable paths and process parameters.

  • Robotic shot peening for metal components
  • Selective conformal coating of PCBs
  • Programmable paths, recipes and masking

Electronics

PCB test automation

Automated stations that test boards, load firmware and run calibration in one pass, with results logged per serial number.

  • Functional testing
  • Firmware loading
  • Calibration and logging

Motion systems

Custom gantries

Cartesian gantries built to the fixture and probe layout of your boards, for positioning test probes and tools accurately over each test point.

  • Gantries for PCB testing
  • Probe and tool positioning
  • Fixture-matched travel

R&D

Prototyping and embedded development

When the machine doesn't exist yet, we build it: concept, mechanical design, control electronics, firmware and a working prototype.

  • Concept to prototype
  • Control electronics and firmware
  • Field trials and iteration

How we work

From the shop floor problem to a commissioned machine

  1. Study the process

    We visit the site, study the part, the hazard and the standard you work to, and agree what the machine must achieve.

  2. Design

    Concept, mechanical design, electronics and control architecture, reviewed with your engineers before anything is built.

  3. Build and test

    Fabrication, wiring, firmware and software, then testing against your acceptance criteria in our facility.

  4. Commission and support

    Installation at your site, operator training and continued support once the machine is in production.

About Unibotix

A Kerala robotics company that builds what it designs

Unibotix Innovations Private Limited is a robotics and automation company based in Thiruvananthapuram. Our team has spent more than six years building robots in Kerala, from field robots for public safety to automation cells for electronics and aerospace work.

Our founder serves as the official robotics mentor to Kerala Police. We are a DPIIT recognised startup, supported by Kerala Startup Mission and registered under Udyam.

Safety by design

The first requirement on every machine is that it removes a person from danger, not adds a new one.

Engineered in-house

Mechanical, electronics, firmware and software under one roof, so problems get fixed at the source.

Built for your site

Each system is sized to your parts, fixtures, space and standards rather than adapted from a catalogue.

Engineer to engineer

You work directly with the people designing your machine, from the first site visit to handover.

FAQ

Questions buyers usually ask

Which industries does Unibotix work with?

Oil and gas storage, aerospace and defence suppliers, electronics manufacturing and public safety agencies. If your process is hazardous, repetitive or needs tight repeatability, it is worth a conversation.

Do you sell standard machines or build custom systems?

Most of our work is custom. We start from your part, process and site, then design the robot or automation cell around them. Where an existing design of ours fits, we adapt it to save time and cost.

How does a project start?

Send us the process you want to automate, with drawings, photos or a tender document if you have them. We review it, visit the site if needed, and come back with a technical approach, timeline and budgetary quote.

Can you work from a tender specification?

Yes. We can build to a published technical specification and support the documentation, testing and acceptance steps a tender requires.

Do you install and support the machines you build?

Yes. We commission each system at your site, train your operators and remain your point of contact for service and upgrades.

Where are you based, and do you work outside Kerala?

We are based in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, and take on projects across India.
