Pick & Place Robotics
for Long Goods, Sheets and Workpieces
Automation
PICK System
Gantry Robot
Gantry robot for handling bars, tubes and other heavy long goods. The gantry gripper moves up to 55 bars per hour and thus ensures fast material supply to picking areas or automatic saws.
SortFLEX
Cantilever Robot
SortFLEX automates the sorting and palletizing of sheet metal parts after laser cutting. The universal robotics solution offers flexible installation options in combination with various software and machine integrations.
Good reasons for using robots in pick & place applications
Relief for the
human workforce
Gripping, lifting and placing heavy metal parts are so called 3D jobs (Dull - Dirty - Dangerous). This is where robots can take over the work and relieve the strain on humans.
Speed
Robots can work significantly faster than humans, especially with repetitive movement patterns. With heavy loads, e.g. sheet metal or metal rods, the speed with a robot is significantly higher compared to handling with a crane or manipulator.
Reduction of
process failures
Process failures caused by human carelessness are avoided by robot applications. The systems work exactly according to the specifications of the respective order. Customer complaints or interruptions to the overall process are thus avoided.
Increase in
productivity
Robots enable higher speeds and therefore better utilization of the machines. At the same time, staff can devote themselves to other tasks. This increases overall productivity.
