The Reis GmbH & Co. KG Maschinenfabrik is a 1957 founded by Walter Reis family owned company based in Upper Castle on Main. The group Rice was restructured in 2010. Today, a total of 18 companies in the rice group are summarized Holding GmbH & Co KG of Rice Group. About the Rice Group Holding, a Director is installed. Chairman of the Board is the founder of the group Walter Rice. Add the rice group about 1400 people are employed worldwide. The largest company within the Group rice is the rice GmbH & Co KG Maschinenfabrik (rice robotics ) at the main site in Upper Castle, Bavaria. The machine factory has about 850 employees (of which approximately 35% engineers ) working in the field of development and production of automation systems and robots. An important field of activity of rice robotics is the development and implementation of complex automation systems for all areas of industrial production. The Group of companies include more high-tech development company in Germany. These group members who specialize in specific areas of the robot application and supply their products both to tear robotics as well as to companies outside of the rice group.

Developed by reis robotics industrial robots and robot controllers can be used for all industrial production processes such as handling, welding, cutting, laser processing, but also in the production of molded parts and plastic parts, as well as in the production of solar modules.

Another focus in the product range of the company is the construction of hydraulic spotting presses for tool and mold design and construction of trimming presses for Gussentgratung and cast iron machining. Since 2012, rice developed Robotics for the foundry technique in which rice for decades has experience, even Diecasting machines and automation equipment for the post of molded parts. Rice robotics integrated on customer other robot manufacturers such as ABB or KUKA in the automation systems.

The customers of the company include not only the automotive industry, many medium-sized automotive suppliers and companies from various fields of technology. Furthermore, rice Robotic regarded as a world leader in the automated production of solar modules. The company has so far built about 13,000 robots and systems installed worldwide.

In December 2013 it was announced that the company KUKA - with the Reis Robotics have long had a closer cooperation - plans to take over the company. First to go on KUKA 51% of the company shares, there is an option for a complete takeover.

The company's founder Walter Rice ( born 1935 in Upper Castle ), the Rudolf Diesel medal and received in 2011 the price of German mechanical engineering in 2006.
