Problem definition
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
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…

For use with our patented, automation-ready reusable trays known as IKLTs (innovative small load trays), the customer requires a low-cost automation solution with semi-automatic transfer and an automatic unit for stacking and unstacking the trays from the base of the transport…
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…
Problem definition
For a testing process, an entire system needs to be integrated into a maritime container so that the system can be used worldwide. Space is therefore extremely limited. A worker sorts the products to be tested into containers. The containers need to be conveyed into the system,…
Problem definition
In a testing process, containers need to be fed into a storage system and then discharged. After they are fed into the system, the containers need to be shaken and then positioned so that a robot can remove a sample. A worker fills the containers with products to be tested and…
Problem definition
To feed and discharge containers from a multi-level storage system, the containers need to be raised to the various storage levels and then lowered again by a parallel storage line. The available space is very limited. The machine should be as reliable and require as little…
Problem definition
A conveyor system for tea candles should be integrated in an existing production system. In this regard the tea candle holders are filled at two stations and cooled via the residual section. In addition, the tea candle holders must be oriented to the customer-side tool carriers…
