Safe handling of wooden panels 2/2 - Lifting axis ZH90
Large, heavy, unwieldy. Oversized wooden panels pose real challenges for many production processes. Especially when they weigh several hundred kilograms and yet need to be moved precisely. Our solution: a lifting axis with adjustable suction device, specially developed for precisely these requirements. With a lifting capacity of up to 1 ton, the system enables the safe picking up, controlled movement and precise positioning of wooden panels. The highlights at a glance: ✅ Adju

Manipulator with 250KG lifting capacity
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

What is our ZH90 lifting axle?
Our ZH90 lifting axis enables precise, powerful, and accurately guided lifting and lowering of loads, including rigid load guidance for maximum process reliability. It offers decisive advantages: ✅ ergonomic working ✅ precise & smooth movements ✅ High process reliability & efficiency ✅ Relief for employees In combination with a rail system, the lifting axis can also move in the X and Y directions, significantly expanding the working range. With a load capacity of up to 1

Handling of aluminum plates / Lifting axis ZH90
Aluminum plates look robust - but they aren't. Their surfaces are soft, prone to scratches, and sensitive to friction or point loads. Incorrect gripping, excessive pressure, or a jerky movement is enough to leave visible damage.❌ The ZH90 lifting axis allows for the fast, safe, and controlled movement of delicate aluminum plates. Even force distribution and smooth movements ensure surface protection, dimensionally accurate components, and stable processes. ✅ #zhht #handlingte

Who is faster? Overhead crane vs. ZH90 lifting axle
In our little practical duel, we show how big the difference can be in real-world handling ⚠️ The overhead crane needs at least 2:20 minutes without the possibility of rotating or swiveling the component 🐌 Our lifting axis, on the other hand, accomplishes the same task in just 45 seconds, including swiveling and rotating 🚀 A difference that saves time, shortens distances and noticeably relieves the burden on employees. #zhht #zhhtwashebstdu #handlingtechnology #efficiencyin

Longitudinal beams / the backbone of the vehicle structure
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
