CATFISH OS / CONNECT

Connect

Integrate Plant Equipment

Connect Catfish OS to robots, machines and business systems already on your floor.

WHAT IT DOES

Works With the Factory You Have

The best experience is with Catfish robots. The platform stays open, so useful equipment does not need replacing to benefit from better software. Each interface is scoped and configured per site.
