Overview
Robots and automation systems depend on precise, lightweight and repeatable mechanical parts: arm segments, gearbox housings, gears and shafts, machine frames, grippers and end-of-arm tooling, linear-axis parts and sheet-metal guarding.
Türkiye has a growing automation industry and a deep base of CNC machining, gear manufacturing, aluminium extrusion and sheet-metal suppliers serving machine and system builders.
On Metraxio you describe the part, attach drawings and state material, quantity and finish. The platform structures the requirement and shows which facilities are a technical fit.
Robot and automation parts are often ordered in small batches that repeat over the product lifecycle, so buyers look for facilities that combine precision machining with consistent quality across repeat orders. Weight reduction, anodising and assembly-ready delivery are common requirements.
Typical parts & components
- Robot arm segments and joint housings
- Gearbox housings, gears and shafts
- Grippers and end-of-arm tooling
- Linear-axis carriages and plates
- Aluminium profile frames and machine bases

Certifications & compliance
What buyers in this industry commonly ask suppliers for. Exact requirements depend on the program, customer and part.
Supplier certifications
-
ISO 9001 Typically required
Baseline quality system.
-
ISO 14001 Sometimes requested
Requested by some system integrators.
-
IATF 16949 Sometimes requested
For automotive automation programs.
Standards & regulations
-
CE Marking Common
CE marking for complete machines.
-
ISO 2768 Common
General tolerances on drawings.
-
RoHS Sometimes requested
For electrical sub-assemblies.
-
EN 10204 Type 3.1 Sometimes requested
Material certificates on request.
Quality & documentation
- Dimensional reports for precision interfaces.
- Material certificates to EN 10204 3.1.
- Consistent surface finish and anodising colour across batches.
- Assembly and functional checks for sub-assemblies.
- CE marking documentation for complete machines.
Typical tolerances & surfaces
- Bearing seats and precision bores: typically H7 or tighter.
- Machined interfaces: commonly ±0.01–0.02 mm.
- Gear quality classes specified per ISO 1328 or DIN 3962.
- Flatness and parallelism of mounting plates specified separately.
Sourcing from Türkiye
Türkiye combines a deep contract-manufacturing base with short routes into Europe. Industrial goods move between Türkiye and the EU under the customs union, so buyers typically avoid EU import duties on qualifying parts.
- Many European destinations can be reached by road within several days; actual transit depends on origin, destination, customs handling and cargo.
- Common delivery terms are EXW, FCA and DAP; Metraxio keeps the agreed Incoterm attached to the quotation and order.
- For recurring series, agree batch sizes and call-offs up front so suppliers can plan material and capacity.
How Metraxio qualifies suppliers
Every request is checked against each facility's structured profile before any supplier is invited.
- Hard criteria: the required process (e.g. CNC machining or gear manufacturing), the specified material and grade, and required certifications.
- Missing data is not a rejection. If a facility profile does not yet state something, the result is "Needs More Information" rather than "Not Qualified".
- No match yet? You can continue with Managed Sourcing and the Metraxio team runs supplier discovery for you.
- Facility identities stay anonymous during the technical assessment.
Example project
How a typical request moves through Metraxio
500 anodised aluminium gripper parts — 7075 — delivered DAP.
- The buyer uploads drawings for gripper fingers and a housing with H7 bores.
- Metraxio structures the requirement: CNC milling, aluminium 7075, hard anodising and DAP delivery.
- The fit assessment shows which facilities are qualified, which need more information and which do not match.
- The buyer invites qualified facilities to a Supplier RFQ, or hands the job to Managed Sourcing.
Frequently asked questions
Can suppliers produce precision gears?
Gear manufacturing is a separate capability. Specify the gear type, module and quality class so facilities are assessed accordingly.
Which aluminium grades are common?
6082 for general machined parts and 7075 where high strength and stiffness are needed.
Are complete sub-assemblies possible?
Yes. Many suppliers assemble mechanical sub-assemblies; list assembly as part of your requirement.
Can I start with prototypes?
Yes. Prototypes and small batches are common before series production.
Are supplier names visible during the assessment?
No. Facilities are shown anonymously during the technical assessment. Identities are shared as the engagement progresses.
