Articulated arm manipulator for dairy plants: Hygienic handling of block molds up to 90 kg
In the dairy industry, every detail counts – not only in terms of product quality, but also with regard to occupational safety, ergonomics, and hygiene. Repetitive lifting and stacking of heavy block molds is part of everyday life in many production facilities and represents a considerable physical strain for employees. At the same time, the handling solutions used must meet the strictest hygiene requirements. We have developed an articulated arm manipulator for dairy plants

Sliding steps for rail vehicles - lifting axle ZH90
A sliding step extends and retracts over a million times during its lifespan. In wind, ice, and snow. At every single stop. With every passenger boarding. For it to function reliably for decades, every screw must be perfectly aligned during installation. Inside, outside, on the drive mechanism, and on the sensors. Several meters wide, complex geometry, numerous connection points. We've rethought the process. A mounting fixture that guides two ZH90 lifting axes in precise, par

Ergonomic handling for car battery housings (2/2)
14 kg may sound manageable at first, but if battery casings have to be moved frequently, it quickly becomes a real burden for employees. Unwieldy geometries, repetitive movements and high cycle times lead to physical strain in everyday life and, in the long term, to limitations. Our solution: a specially developed gripper for battery housings. He makes this possible: ✅ Safe recording ✅ Precise movement ✅ Flexible rotation and swiveling of components This allows the worker to
