Vention

Vention was founded in 2016 and is headquartered in Montreal, Canada, with a European office in Berlin opened in 2021. The company built a cloud-based platform so manufacturing teams can design, program, and order custom automation equipment without relying on a systems integrator for every project.

The platform combines MachineBuilder for 3D design, MachineLogic for programming, MachineAnalytics for monitoring, and the MachineMotion AI controller, together with hardware such as frames, linear motion parts, and robot arms sourced through the same interface. Vention reports over 28,000 machines running across more than 4,000 factories in industries including automotive, aerospace and defense, and food and beverage.

1. Unified platform: MachineBuilder, MachineLogic, and MachineAnalytics cover design, programming, and monitoring.

2. MachineMotion AI controller: a single controller runs motion and logic for assembled machines.

3. Integrated hardware catalog: frames, linear motion parts, and robot arms ordered from the same design tool.

4. Faster deployment: manufacturers report building automation cells in days rather than months.

5. Installed base: over 28,000 machines running across more than 4,000 factories.

6. Industry reach: serves automotive, aerospace and defense, consumer goods, and food and beverage plants.
