Problem definition
Replacement of a simple slide with a system that gently handles blow-molded parts, which in some cases are still plastiline, with automation, and transports them off. The blow-molded parts must be vertically transferred to the discharge gripper of the blow molding system.…
Design, construction and start-up of a semi-automated workstation interlink system for rotating assemblies for stretching synthetic fibres. The workpiece carriers are provided in three different variants for the rotors, the housings and the finished assemblies. Part of the…
A feed unit is to be used to push wooden beams into a saw and automatically cut them to custom-made size. A linear module is used to generate variable cutting lengths based on predetermined values provided by the control system. The cycle time for sawing the length of one beam is…

The customer required a palletiser with a connected tray recirculation system: Pallet trucks are used to feed Euro pallets loaded with trays into the system and then remove them again at the end of the process. The palletiser destacks filled trays from the pallets and feeds them…
Problem definition
Heavy loads should be transported via a conveyor system. The transport system should have a transfer that is as free of gaps as possible. The transport mass can briefly weigh as much as a ton and the linear speed should be between 0.03 - 0.3 m/min (high-speed values and…
Problem definition
Camshafts are conveyed into a processing machine (lathe), separated and positioned, so that the camshafts are clamped into the processing machine identically every time. Since the aim is to process different types of camshafts, the width of the conveyor system must be variably…
Problem definition
In order to link a manufacturing process, during which a machine that is integrated downstream, functions at a slower speed but operates longer, a transfer system is required using a buffer zone for 40 pallets arranged in 5 levels and capable of transporting a total load of 10…
Problem definition
Design and production of a box filling machine for different tube formats of the cosmetics industry. Capacity: 200 tubes/min, 4 boxes/min. Chaining of upstream filling stations and integration of the provided scale with NOK outsorting of tubes. Chaining of box erectors from…
Problem definition
Planning, design, and construction of an automated system line for rhizotron screening (researching the root growth of plants). The rhizotron packages should be capable of being pivoted automatically and being removed individually for recurring photography in a darkened housing.…
Problem definition
Empty or loaded trays for turned steel parts are to be loaded or unloaded in a fully automated process. For the subsequent automation, the trays are to be buffered upstream and downstream of the palletizing station. Thus, after manual loading of the empty-tray buffer, the system…
