STIRLING , ONTARIO · SINCE 2015
Automation, machining, and fabrication. Under one roof.
We design, build, and service custom industrial systems for manufacturers across Ontario. Vision-guided robotics, precision machining, and custom fabrication, delivered as a single, turnkey solution by the team that engineered it.
One shop, however your project shows upHire us for one. Hire us for all three.
Some projects need a full automated production line. Some need a single machined component. Some need a service tech on a plane to fix something tomorrow. We're set up for any combination — one discipline, two, or all three — because the same team builds each, in the same shop, to the same standard. Tighter tolerances, faster builds, fewer handoffs, one point of accountability.
A manufacturer's 40-year supplier walked away from a complex part their line couldn't run without — and their backup suppliers wouldn't even quote it. We took the order. Six months of custom process development later — CNC machining, custom processing, and a vision-inspection system designed specifically for the part — the first production run came in at a 1% defect rate. Today it's zero.
What we doThree services. Independent or integrated
Most customers hire us for one or two. Some hire us for the full turnkey build. Either way, you're working with the same team, in the same shop, on the same standard.
Vision-guided robotics, custom systems, and modified standard solutions designed and built for your line.
Vision-guided pick-and-place
Robotic assembly & inspection
Defect detection & quality systems
CNC milling, turning, and additive — for the specialized and complex parts most shops won't take on.
Custom & specialized parts
3D printing & prototyping
Complex one-off production
Custom fabrication, sanitary stainless welding for food manufacturers, and onsite service across Ontario.
Sanitary stainless welding
Our SpecialtyVision-guided robotics, done better.
Vision-guided robotics is where 30 years of automation experience compounds. Robots that know where to grab the part, where the seal goes, when to assemble, when to reject. We've built cells that pick automotive clips off conveyors, place foam seals onto stud clips, run robotic assembly lines, and bag finished parts at line speed. From standalone cells to modified standard solutions like RoboSeal-VG, vision-guided is the building block we're best known for.
Industries we serveBuilt for manufacturers who don't settle.
We work with manufacturers who care about how well the machine runs in year five, not just what it costs in year one.
Why Skye AutomationTechnical depth you can talk to directly.
Skye Gorter, our founder, has been in automation since he was 18. When you call, you get the technical lead, not a sales rep handing you to an engineer next week.
