ROBOTS IN FURNITURE PRODUCTION - BLOG

Robotization of upholstered furniture production – a revolution that is already underway!

09 July 2025

 

Introduction

The production of upholstered furniture has relied primarily on manual labor for years. This process, while precise and based on the artisans' experience, has often been extremely labor-intensive and sometimes burdensome for workers. Today, however, thanks to NC-R Advanced Robotics, Polish furniture factories can benefit from solutions that combine traditional craftsmanship quality with modern automation.

Key Areas of Automation in Upholstery

1. Automatic Frame Assembly and Glue Application

Automation significantly streamlines the assembly process of furniture frames and structures. Modern NC-R stations utilize:

  • automatic staplers and nail guns with integrated magazines,

  • vacuum grippers that safely transport components,

  • quick changeover systems (setup takes less than 5 minutes),

  • integration with ERP software, providing full control over the process

 

The result? Greater efficiency, consistent quality, and reduced risk of errors.

2. Autonomous CNC Machine Operation

Robots from YASKAWA enable automatic feeding and receiving of components from CNC milling machines or drills.

  • The entire process occurs without operator supervision,

  • The workflow can be synchronized with the ERP system,

  • Operators are relieved from repetitive, monotonous tasks, gaining time for more creative and precise actions.

 

3. Automatic CNC Lines

Modern lines allow for the automation of drilling, cutting furniture boards, and inserting nut inserts.

  • The work is carried out fully automatically,

  • Control is managed through the ERP system,

  • Minimizing the risk of downtime and material loss.

Why Invest in Automation?

Automation in upholstery is not just about saving time and reducing costs. It also brings:

  • better working conditions for employees,

  • higher quality and repeatability of production,

  • faster order fulfillment, increasing competitiveness in foreign markets.

 

How to Start Your Journey with NC-R Advanced Robotics?

  • Process Audit – a free analysis that will show the potential for automation in your facility.

  • Simulation – visualization of the future workstation before implementation begins.

 

This is not theory – these are real solutions that are already operational in Poland. Over the past 3 years, NC-R Advanced Robotics has automated many upholstery workshops – from small studios to large factories exporting furniture to Western markets.

Summary

Automation in the upholstered furniture industry is a step towards a future that is happening here and now. With solutions like automatic CNC lines and YASKAWA robots, Polish factories gain a competitive edge while maintaining the highest quality of products.

This is no longer science fiction – it is a revolution in furniture manufacturing that is changing the face of the industry.
