Two machining stations in a plastic canister production process need to be interlinked. The solution has to cope with inconvenient spatial constraints: Empty canisters need to be conveyed along a curve and past another machine so that they can be brought back to the original feed...

Problem definition
A conveyor with a transillumination station is needed for visual inspection in an automated production application. In this station the products are illuminated through the belt and examined with cameras or the naked eye for material defects, incorrect positioning, completeness or...

Problem definition
For an application in the production of non-woven strips, cut sections of non-woven fabric need to be transported from one machining station to the next. The material is very thin and light. The system needs to run at a high speed of 140 m/min. The strips must be transferred from...

Problem definition
In a metalworking application, round stamped parts in various formats need to be transported from one machine tool to the next. The interlink needs to bridge a slight height difference. The parts must be conveyed at 90°, then straight ahead for a section, and then at 90° again....

Problem definition
The customer sought to simulate the entire logistics process for consumer goods for use in a training centre. Using beverage crates as an example, the customer wanted to display all the various stations, from manufacture of the goods, to transport and storage, all the way to the...

Problem definition
During the machining of sheet metal parts for home appliances, sheets are pressed to shape. The pressed sheets are transported away from the press. A worker removes the sheets and places them in a transport box for further processing. Previously the worker had to remove each sheet...

Problem definition
