We make it our job to keep up with the latest technology so our imaginations can point us toward promising “what-ifs.” We can open your eyes to what’s next, encouraging us to explore opportunities that haven’t previously presented themselves. Our most exciting conversations start with “imagine if…”

Hardware
Loupe systems start with industry-leading hardware from B&R and ABB. Powerful hardware allows for more sophisticated solutions and greater operational effectiveness.
Software
Software is the key material of the future of machines. We level-up machine capability by curating a versatile portfolio of software combining out-of-the-box, open-source, and custom Loupe code.
Services
Instead of asking “what do you need us to make?” we ask, “what do you want to accomplish?” Loupe engineers are creative problem solvers driven by possibilities.
Loupe’s Revolutionary Method
Partnership with Loupe is drastically different from the standard approach. We work collaboratively with our partners to turn vision into reality. Loupe engineers are machine designers first and product specialists second. We team up on ideas, identifying improvements and new opportunities from the start.
① Inspiration

② New Machine Concept
② New Machine Concept
Making the imaginable actionable is difficult to do in a silo. We’re always ready to help move an idea from whiteboard to BOM. Possibilities emerge when we combine your depth of industry process knowledge with our breadth of automation mastery. We can work collaboratively with you or lead your team through a guided session. The result: a new machine concept with an action plan to prove viability.
③ Test Drive
③ Test Drive
When trying new things, “seeing the green LEDs” can be a huge motivator. Sometimes a quick demo can inspire a shift from cool concept to real prototype effort. Test Drive is that bridge. We solve the first problem standing in the way of a viable proof of concept. As we get the critical technology in action as intended, the path forward becomes much clearer. Investing in prototyping with a concept alone can feel like a risky leap, but starting with Test Drive is a strategic and calculated first step.
④ Ship in Six

Loupe’s iterative prototyping approach is modeled after agile software development — a discipline known for rapid and regular quality output. We apply the same agile methodology to hardware development. Segmenting complex projects into 6-week sprints informs future project cycles. The result: minimal paperwork and change orders, higher success rates, greater cost efficiency, faster time-to-market, revolutionary machine outcomes, and a solution that actually works for the customer.
⑤ Production
⑤ Production
Concepts are exciting to imagine, but we never forget that everything we design ultimately ends up on a real production floor, which can be a highly unforgiving environment. We design to that every single day. Highly flexible with no programming involved, our machines are built to reduce downtime and improve cost efficiency.
Instead of spending their day-to-day building and maintaining machines, your engineers are free to do what you hired them for — generating ideas that drive your business.
