Heavy-load handling up to 1,200 kg means moving heavy components pendulum-free, precisely and ergonomically, instead of heaving them with brute force.

Choosing the right lifting technology means understanding the task first, then the system. Knowing the load, direction of movement, and cycle time allows you to make a decision that will last 15 to 25 years. That's precisely what the guide from Zeilhofer Handling Technology in Holzkirchen is for: over a dozen articles on selection, drive systems, safety, and application. Manufacturer-neutral, objective, and without sales pressure. Step 1: Determine the appropriate system Mani

What happens when you rethink two proven systems and combine their strengths in a single unit? This very question was the starting point for our latest development. The result is the ZH90 Flex-Arm lifting axis, a handling solution that combines the flexibility of a manipulator with the precise, pendulum-free load guidance of a lifting axis . In this article, we show what distinguishes the ZH90 Flex-Arm, for which applications it was developed, and why pendulum-free load guida

In many production and assembly areas, the variety of components is constantly increasing. Different shapes, weights, and requirements mean that classic handling solutions quickly reach their limits. This is precisely where our new articulated arm manipulator with interchangeable gripper system comes in. The solution was specifically developed to handle a wide variety of components simply, quickly, and safely – without lengthy changeover times or complicated processes. The in

Highlights: ✅ Up to 3 axis types with individual gripping mechanisms ✅ System and operating handle can be rotated independently ✅ Pre-positioning guide for precise positioning ✅ Safety features including emergency stop ✅ Rigid load guidance without oscillation ✅ Friction wheel drive for effortless operation More efficient process for e-axle handling. Greater safety. Less stress. #zhht #handlingtechnology #automotiveindustry #mechanicalengineering

The ZH90 lifting axis makes handling e-axles precise, safe and efficient, even with different axis types. Special features: ✅ Individual gripping mechanisms: The hubaches can accommodate up to 3 different axis types, ideal for changing production requirements. ✅ Unique rotating functions: Both the entire system and the operating handle can be rotated independently of each other, for flexibility in different production situations. ✅ Guides facilitate the precise positioning of

In this video we show one of our new manipulators, which was specially developed for handling turbine blades. Since we don't have an original component available for demonstration, we'll use a car tire to illustrate the function. The principle, however, remains the same: safe picking up, controlled movement, and precise positioning of sensitive components. The manipulator has a maximum load capacity of up to 250 kilograms and supports the customer's production process with in

For handling car seats, we have developed several lifting axes that are precisely tailored to the respective production steps on site ✅ Each lifting axis was precisely adjusted to the height differences at the customer's site – without changing the actual lifting height 💡 This allows the seats to be handled safely, precisely and efficiently, while the systems are optimally integrated into the existing production environment 🏭 🚀 #zhht #zhhtproductvideo #handlingtechnology #

"Angelo isn't lifting today, he's got a threesome" 😉 …with three manipulators with different functions, demonstrating what smart and safe handling of longitudinal beams really looks like! 💪 #zhht #zhhtwashebstdu #angelowashebstdu #handlingtechnology #loadhandling #smarthandling #mechanicalengineering #madeingermany #automotiveproduction #electromobility

Longitudinal beams are load-bearing components in the vehicle frame, crucial for stability and safety. They must be handled precisely during the production process to ensure the highest quality standards. Our specially developed manipulators enable the worker to safely pick up longitudinal beams using a precise gripping device and to swivel or rotate them flexibly. This creates precisely the flexibility required for this production step – precise 🎯 safe 🛡️ efficient 🚀 #zhh

Why are we building a system with a lifting height of 2 meters? 🤔 Quite simply: The customer requirements and the existing on-site layout necessitate precisely this system configuration ⚠️ And that's precisely where our strength lies: We develop each lifting aid individually, precisely tailored to the requirements and processes on site 🏭 Anyone can do standard – we build solutions that fit 💡 #zhht #zhhtwhatareyou #angelowhatareyou #explanatoryvideo #techniciansexplain #han
