Inspiring collaboration
between humans and machines
We at Innvotek, specialise in automation of inspection, maintenance and digitisation of critical infrastructure in extreme and demanding environments. We develop customised solutions based on our customer requirements in offshore energy, shipping, construction and transport sectors.
Our vision is to create value for our clients by implementing our innovative robotic solutions to re-invent conventional processes and practices. We create mobile platforms which climb on large assets, operate underwater and are safe in explosive environments. This allows our customers the opportunity to carry out operations in a safer, more cost-effective manner with greater flexibility.
Meeting real-life needs of our clients
Our in-house engineering team create bespoke, customised equipment to help our clients create safer and smarter places for their workers and grow operational results:
Explosive Atmospheres
Crawlers operating in explosive environments performing non-destructive testing (NDT) with ATEX certification
Dull, Dirty & Dangerous
Robotic platforms that perform repetitive tasks on construction sites, including asset mapping
Marine & Subsea
Magnetic crawlers for cleaning and NDT inspection for offshore wind foundations
and the oil & gas industry
Autonomous Capabilities
Platform operator aids to reduce manual fatigue, such as automated weld inspection and corrosion mapping where endurance and precision are required
Hazardous Environments
Inspection and maintenance platform designed to minimize the time personnel must spend offshore, working at height, in confined spaces, in toxic gas atmospheres
Remote monitoring
Ruggedised IoT, sensing solutions combined with intelligent automated analysis for continuous monitoring of hard-to-access infrastructure, such as sewers and bridges

Industries
Offshore Energy
Splash zones, biofouling, corrosion – this is not the full list of issues that wind farm or oil rig operators have to fight. We offer a complete autonomous robotic solution, which is capable of conducting cleaning, along with consequential non-destructive testing (NDT) inspection of corroded surfaces both above and below waterline, in harsh conditions. The mobile robots can work in teams, eliminate the need for divers and ROVs and contribute to the reduction of maintenance and, as a result, energy costs.
Construction
Construction industry has been traditionally dominated by manual labour and dull, repetitive tasks. We develop cost-effective, rugged mobile robots that can be deployed throughout the construction site and readily reconfigured to new tasks. Our machines move easily between locations and activities. They incorporate accurate autonomous positioning and navigation, with ability to link to Building Information Modelling systems for autonomous working. Safety in use is one of the main priorities as construction sites represent dynamic environment where human workers carry out tasks in close proximity to robots.
Storage Tanks
Maintenance of storage tanks for organic and non-organic liquids is essential as corrosion leads to leakage of contents that can result in severe losses and pollution. Manual inspections require the tank to be out of service for weeks. With our robotic system, you can conduct inspection of bottom plates while your tank stays in operation. The system is ATEX-compliant, so it works in both non-explosive liquids and explosive environments, where appropriate certifications are required. Deployment of the machines is done via a standard man-hole, with NDT inspection performed in real-time. The collected data can be used for maintenance schedule optimisation.
Ship-care
Offshore vessels require integrity management while at sea, which includes both inspection and cleaning from biofouling and corrosion. This includes external hull cleaning and internal tank inspection (ballast & cargo).
Transport
Aerospace industries are required by regulatory bodies to inspect aircraft composite structures for defects before and during service. Currently, the inspections are mostly undertaken by manual visual checks, with semi-automated tools starting to be slowly incorporated. We have developed a drone-based robotic solution for visual and aerial thermographic inspection of surfaces, with cross-industrial application that includes construction, marine and military.
