What we do
Invert Robotics designs and manufactures state-of-the-art NDT robotic inspection crawler platforms. Our robots are used by OEMS, production– and inspection companies in the food production, chemical, pharmaceutical, aerospace and energy industries worldwide. Leveraging our patented technology, we also deliver remote robotic inspection services.
Invert Robotics started as a spin-off from the University of Canterbury’s School of Engineering in Christchurch, New Zealand. Here we developed the world’s first climbing robot which was capable of climbing on stainless steel. We achieved early success within the New Zealand dairy tank inspection market, and investment and recognition were quick to follow.
Strengthened by strong customer feedback and venture capital backing, Invert Robotics took its services to the world. We now provide our robotic technology for safe inspection services to hundreds of industrial sites, fulfilling thousands of tank inspections, from our offices in Ireland, the Netherlands, Germany, France, New Zealand, Australia and the United States.
