Our patented ZH90 lifting axis has been in successful use for years – and for good reason. A product that has proven itself in numerous applications and offers our customers decisive advantages:
✔ Complete solution from a single source 🤝
We not only supply the lifting axis, but also offer a complete system consisting of the ZH90, a matching gripper, and a precisely coordinated control system. This provides you with a ready-to-use solution, optimally tailored to your requirements – from a single source and with minimal integration effort.
✔ Collaborative system for safe human-lifting aid interaction 👷♂️
The ZH90 is designed as a manual and/or collaborative lifting axis – an innovative lifting aid developed for direct use in human workspaces. Thanks to integrated safety features, it can be operated without traditional protective devices such as fences. This creates a shared workspace where humans and machines work hand in hand, productively and safely.
✔ Intelligent control & easy programming 🧑💻
Whether pneumatic, electro-pneumatic, or fully electric: We implement the right control system precisely according to your specifications. Thanks to modern teach-in functionality, programming is particularly intuitive – even without in-depth programming knowledge. Integration into existing systems is quick and efficient, and upon request, we can also handle complete commissioning.
✔ Product-specific device 🛠️
Our ZH90 can be flexibly combined with a wide variety of fixtures. Depending on your requirements, we equip the system with grippers, suction units, magnetic modules, or custom-developed special solutions – precisely tailored to your components, processes, and production environments.
✔ Safety features🛡️
Our lifting axis is equipped with comprehensive safety features. These include force and torque sensors that detect critical loads, as well as automatic stop functions in the event of a collision. These features not only provide protection during collaborative use, but also ensure a high degree of process reliability and operator comfort.
✔ Predictive Maintenance 🔎
Predictive maintenance on our lifting axis enables early detection and targeted prevention of failures. Sensors and data analysis detect wear and anomalies in a timely manner, allowing maintenance to be planned and carried out cost-effectively. This reduces downtime, extends component life, and increases overall productivity. Furthermore, the data-driven approach enables better process control and optimizes the efficiency and availability of robot-assisted systems in the long term.
