Value proposition

Unique Automation · Simplified | Bespoke software for any process, robot or part.

HAL Robotics is a London-based software company focusing on novel applications of robotics in manufacturing, construction, and creative industries.

Since 2014 we have been helping our clients in the UK, Europe, North America and Australasia innovate and get to market faster, by providing them with robust and highly flexible solutions to program, simulate, control and monitor processes involving industrial machinery.


As well as covering traditionally automated processes, we specialise in the programming of complex toolpaths, such as those required in additive manufacturing; highly variable jobs allowing production of small batches and unique items; and applications which require adapting robot tasks from various software ecosystems.

Underpinning our services is the HAL Robotics Framework, an extensible and modular software which facilitates inter-device communication, adaptive programming of robot tasks, and motion planning for one or many robots working together.

HAL Robotics have developed and tested the Framework in a variety of industries over the years, from aerospace to construction through food and beverage, ensuring that it can support any process asked of it.

This flexibility, whilst an advantage in its own right, also acts as the basis for our bespoke software solutions for novel processes or markets.

By tailoring solutions to clients’ existing expertise, we lower the barrier to entry for robot use and provide interfaces in terms that they understand with links to software they already use.

HAL Robotics stays at the forefront of innovation through internal and collaborative R&D projects. We also provide flexible application prototyping tools to researchers, whatever their field, allowing them to focus on the research that drives them.

As well as accelerating and de-risking these experimental phases, using the same industry-ready tools in R&D endeavours guarantees that innovations are quick and easy to industrialise.
