Handling

The best handling process for your production

Handling is always an important part of our automatic assembly and joining solutions. But even as an individual technique, handling can do a lot to improve your production process.

Handling with robots

Scararobot and deltarobot For fast pick & place processes with high accuracy, handling with a scara or delta robot is a suitable solution. These very fast robots have a favourable price point and deliver very fast picks in a small range.

Articulated-arm robot Virtually any position and orientation of your product or tool is possible for highly flexible handling in a variety of workspaces. The robot has many variations: from four-, five- or six-axis versions in weight classes from less than 1 kilogram to as much as 1200 kilograms.

Co-bot: collaborative robot The co-bot is a new generation of robots that enables robot-human collaboration. This type of robot does not always need a safety fence and is suitable for assembly or handling processes where high speeds are not required.

Handling without robots

Transferors The transferor is a simple, fast and cost-efficient handling method. Our pneumatic transferors and servo-driven transferors consist of two linear axes and a product gripper as standard, which we can expand with additional rotary axes if desired

Turning station If a product needs to be handled on both sides, a turning station is a simple handling solution. This usually pneumatically driven unit takes the part out, rotates it 180 degrees and then places it back into the assembly process.

XYZ portal system We can design an XYZ portal system in any size, often making the best use of available space. An XYZ portal system is particularly applicable for installations where long distances and/or positioning accuracy and stability of the system are important.

No standard solution

Almost every process can be improved by automation, including automatic handling. But a concrete tile requires a different handling process than a syringe. We therefore do not make standard solutions, but first look at what you need. Based on your product, vision of the future and the available budget, we design and build a machine that fits your process perfectly.

Frequently asked questions

We get these questions about automated handling more often

We understand that you have many questions at the start of an automation project. That is why we have answered the questions we have heard most often over the past 40 years. Would you like us to think about your project or do you have other questions first? Please feel free to contact us.

If it is important for you to be able to collaborate with the robot, a collaborative robot can indeed be a godsend. But in doing so, don’t forget that you also need to take safety measures with cobots. Would you like advice on this? We are happy to think along with you about what is the best solution for your process.

Of course, this depends entirely on what you need and what your requirements are in this respect. In doing so, we are immediately honest about the payback period and do not try to sell you a machine if we do not see a business case for it.

Our software colleagues can programme robots from Fanuc, ABB, Kuka, Yaskawa, Mitsubishi and Epson for you. We are happy to advise which robot is most suitable for your process.

Depending on your current process and the solution we may create for you, you can count on higher production output, better and more consistent quality, a better working environment for your employees and lower production costs.
