AUTOMATION SOLUTIONS FOR MACHINE TOOLS
Automated pallet changers, workpiece grippers as well as mobile robot systems for an efficient pallet- and workpiece automation. Highest reliability, robust technology for 24/7 production.
AUTOMATION FOR THE MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY
The manufacturing industry operates under different conditions today than it did a few years ago. Customers are demanding shorter and shorter delivery times, and smaller and smaller series are in demand.
Products are to be manufactured with ever smaller tolerances, prices are constantly falling and competition is now global.
These new conditions must be met with increased flexibility, improved quality and increased productivity.
In the longer term, this can only be managed by automated production!
Automation takes monotonous and time-consuming work away from your highly skilled employees so they can focus on more demanding tasks.
In automated operation, your production runs around the clock – seven days a week.
+ Strengths:
- Higher productivity
- Maximum flexibility
- Shorter lead time
- Unit cost reduction
- Faster return on investment

WORKPIECE AUTOMATION
Workpiece gripper
With the help of the workpiece gripper, you use your existing machine tool as an automation cell.
The gripper, which is operated pneumatically or by means of cooling lubricant, is available in various designs. It is inserted into the machine from the tool store to transport workpieces from the workpiece rest into our power-operated clamping devices.
The workpiec gripper loads turning machines, milling machines, grinding machines, EDM machines and measureing machines.
The workpiece tray is placed on the machine table when required; during the day, individual parts can be produced on mechanical clamping devices.The optional compensation function protects the machine and gripper from tolerances and unevenness of the workpieces.
+ Strengths:
- Cost-effective
- Easy installation
- High gripping force, adjustable
Mobile robot system SP-MR 1
This mobile and compact automation system enables a quick entry into robot automation.
It supports and relieves employees, loads CNC machines or assembles components.
Automatic doors can be supplied for retrofitting to your existing processing machines.
The open, fence-free access allows flexible working.
The system is easy to install, can be used on multiple machines, and features a quick return on investment.
