Augmentus Secures $11M to Expand No-Code Robotic Systems

• Augmentus builds no-code software that programs robots to automate welding and surface finishing in factories with constantly changing parts.
• The company raised $11 million in Series A+ funding to expand delivery and develop next-generation adaptive systems.

Augmentus has secured $11 million in Series A+ funding to speed the rollout of its no-code automation platform for robotics. Led by Woori VP, with participation from EDBI, Sierra Ventures, and Cocoon Capital, the round supports geographic growth in the Asia Pacific and North America, fulfillment of existing orders, and expansion of support infrastructure.

Many manufacturers want to automate tasks like welding or surface finishing, but programming remains a major hurdle as it's often slow, complicated, and difficult to adjust when parts or products change frequently. Augmentus eliminates this barrier by combining 3D scanning, intelligent path planning, and dynamic motion control to automate tasks. Its platform enables rapid deployment without programming expertise and has been implemented in more than 50 installations across countries, including Australia, Singapore, Germany, and the U.S.

"We're seeing unprecedented demand-and this round enables us to deliver. It allows us to fulfill our growing backlog while accelerating R&D into hyper-adaptive robotics that can perceive and respond on the fly, even in chaotic, high-mix environments where no two parts are alike. These are the hardest problems in automation-surface finishing, material removal, welding-and we're solving them at scale," said Daryl Lim, Co-founder and CEO of Augmentus, in an official press release. "With world-class partners across Asia, the U.S., and Europe, we're not just building robotic software - we're building the future of intelligent manufacturing."

To support growth, Augmentus is working directly with customers and partnering with system integrators to deliver and install its solution in more factories. Augmentus reports that its platform has reduced configuration time by as much as 90% and significantly shortened robot downtime. It is also accelerating the development of a new generation of adaptive systems, designed to react instantly to changes in part shape, alignment, and production feedback. All of these are essential components for fully autonomous, feedback-driven manufacturing environments.

🌀 Tom’s Take:

Robotics won’t scale if only experts can run them. Most factory teams don’t have time to learn complex programming. Augmentus takes that barrier away with software that’s fast to set up and easy to use. This is a step toward automation that more manufacturers can actually adopt.
