About Us
We've worked with every major robot manufacturer — ABB, FANUC, KUKA, Kawasaki, Yaskawa — across sectors from automotive and food processing to packaging and pharma. Projects spanning Scandinavia, Turkey, the United States, Thailand, Mexico, Colombia, and throughout the UK.
Our lubricants are used by world-class racing teams, and our consulting clients range from robotics startups and automotive manufacturers to investment firms, M&A advisors, and government bodies. We've consulted through expert networks for corporate strategists and analysts evaluating the robotics and automation sector.
Finally, the tools and other products we design and make in house have thousands of happy customers around the world. For us this is what counts the most.
Years of working with industrial machines exposed two persistent problems that nobody was solving properly.
Factory equipment from different vendors didn't talk to each other. Cloud monitoring was either expensive, locked to one manufacturer, or nonexistent for smaller operations. The solution: RoboVigil — our vendor-agnostic, cloud-based machine monitoring platform, now live on iOS, Android, and the web.
Off-the-shelf lubricants couldn't meet the demands of precision gearboxes and motion systems. That problem led to our range of advanced lubricants built on tungsten disulphide, PTFE, molybdenum disulphide, and hexagonal boron nitride — single-compound formulations with precise particle engineering for applications where performance matters more than price.
Both product lines exist because we encountered the problems first-hand and couldn't find adequate solutions elsewhere.
RoboVigil — Industrial Machine Monitoring Cloud-based oversight for factory machines via OPC-UA, with live camera feeds, real-time data, and alerting. No hardware to install — uses existing IP cameras and network infrastructure. Available on all major app stores.
Specialist Lubricants & Powders Single-compound formulations for industrial, motorsport, cycling, and 3D printing applications. Sold direct, via Amazon, and through our own e-commerce store. White label and bespoke development available.
Automation Consulting Independent, vendor-neutral guidance for manufacturers, integrators, startups, and investors.
Industrial monitoring software, specialist lubricants, and independent consulting — optimising the technology you already have.
Hagen Automation is a UK-based technology company with roots in industrial robotics. Founded by Tom Hagen, over a 25+ year career who has sold hundreds of robots and automation systems to customers around the world across a huge range of industries and has developed many new technologies for robotics and lubrication.
That hands-on experience — programming robots, designing systems, troubleshooting production lines — is the foundation for everything we do. It's not about selling you more technology. It's about getting more what you already have. Your technology, optimised.
