In Short

CETPM is a professional training institute that develops high-impact learning programs aligned with current industry trends. Their mission is to continuously upgrade the learning environment and teaching methods—equipping participants with practical skills that translate directly into workplace excellence.
Looking to demonstrate how collaborative robotics can be combined with low-cost automation principles (Karakuri Kaizen), CETPM selected the UFACTORY xArm as the centerpiece of their robotics training environment.
Today, the xArm serves as a live demonstration platform in CETPM’s workshops, helping German SME companies understand real-world automation possibilities—quickly set up, straightforward to program, and highly reliable in daily use.

The Challenge

As automation becomes increasingly important for industrial competitiveness, there is a growing need for practical, hands-on training that bridges the gap between theory and real-world application.
CETPM aims to equip students and industry professionals with skills that can be directly applied in manufacturing environments—particularly within small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
To achieve this, they needed a robotic platform that was not only affordable, but also easy to use and flexible enough to demonstrate low-cost automation concepts such as Karakuri Kaizen. Traditional industrial robots, however, are often too expensive and complex for widespread use in training environments.

Why UFACTORY

When selecting a robot for training and demonstration purposes, CETPM needed a solution that could balance cost, usability, and performance.
Affordable pricing made xArm accessible for educational use, allowing more institutions and companies to adopt hands-on robotics training.
Ease of use and programming enabled students and trainees to quickly get started, while still offering the flexibility to explore more advanced applications.
Fast setup reduced onboarding time making it ideal for workshop environments where efficiency and accessibility are critical.
Reliable performance and support ensured a smooth user experience, with responsive technical assistance when needed.
