Problem definition
Multiple machining stations needed to be interlinked for the production of electric motors for an electric sport utility vehicle. The stations needed to be interlinked across multiple levels. Lifts for lifting, lowering and turning are used to transport the pallets to the various...

Problem definition
A horizontal pallet recirculation system was needed for the production of electric motors for an electric sport utility vehicle. Together the workpiece and pallet weigh about 100 kg per pallet, which means a total load of 160 kg per meter of conveying path. The system needs to be...

Problem definition
In the production of longitudinal and cross beams, the production systems, the packaging robots and a station for manual tasks need to be interlinked. Positioning accuracy of +- 0.2 mm is required at the stations. Both longitudinal and cross beams are produced on the line, and the...

Problem definition
In the production of titanium screws, a handling solution needs to lift the baskets containing the screws from the main conveyor life to the buffer conveyor or tip the containers into a funnel. The solution needs to process different screw types in no particular order and be able...

Problem definition
During the production of titanium screws, the screws are expelled from the lathes and fill baskets made from perforated VA steel sheets. The screws that fall into the basket need to be counted. A lifting unit is also needed to transport the baskets to the main conveyor line at a...

Problem definition
In the production of titanium screws, baskets for holding the screws need to be conveyed from five lathes to the next transfer location. The conveying path needs to be adapted to the given spatial constraints. The lathes have a cycle time of 30 minutes per basket. During this...

Problem definition
An interlink is required for a production process in the manufacture of titanium screws. Five lathes need to be interlinked with two thread whirling machines. Different screw types need to be processed. The lathes have a different cycle time than the thread whirling machines. The...
