Who we Are
We simplify Robot Welding.
With over 40 years of history in robot welding, we are dedicated to simplifying robotic welding with extensive experience in Australia and New Zealand, complemented by a global footprint. Established as a 100% family-owned and operated business, our journey spans over four decades, marked by the installation of over 370 robots across seven countries.
In 1980, Peter Carbines, a young and respected electrical engineer, began our journey, leading to the establishment of Carbines Engineering in 1984, specialising in robotic and automation systems in New Zealand. With milestones including our first exports to North America and Dubai in 1998, Australia exports from the early 2000’s, and the acquisition by Autoline in 2017, we’ve continuously set the standard for excellence in robot welding innovation.
Now, in 2025, we stand as the industry leader for robotic welding solutions, with the most extensive experience across Australia and New Zealand. Autoa.
