Safe and economical handling processes
Systematically simplified
In Munich, IEF-Werner is presenting its gantry system with the toothed belt axis module 115/25, which can be used to safely handle trays or small load carriers weighing up to 40 kg.

Dresden-based positioning specialist Steinmeyer Mechatronik has developed a compact gantry system for inspection systems in semiconductor or optics production that combines maximum precision in the sub-micrometer range with long travel distances and high dynamics. An ideal solution for laser applications.

Autonomous systems and networked controls
In today's manufacturing processes, machines and systems are becoming increasingly autonomous, intelligent and powerful. This applies above all to the end devices and tools used, which are necessary for process tasks.

With the UA1995, Tsubaki Kabelschlepp presents an all-rounder with extra installation space.

Positioning systems and pick-and-place systems must be able to move loads quickly and precisely. leanPositioning and leanP&P complete solutions from Leantechnik meet these requirements.

Linear unit with ball screw drive from Item
The new KGT 6 60 linear unit from Item is characterized by precision, positioning accuracy, high propulsion force, safety, flexibility and a stroke of up to 2,600 mm.

Automotive suppliers need to have their own planning and production processes under control on the one hand and, above all, meet the increasing demands of OEMs on the other. This is hardly possible without high-performance information technology structures.

RK Rose+Krieger has revised its configurator for the RK Easywork workstation system. The tool checks every choice for plausibility in the background and displays the result. Finally, a CAD model and PDF data sheet of the workstation are created.

Tire manufacturers are looking for automation solutions that integrate seamlessly into their IT systems while offering protection against hacker attacks and data theft. The automation platform ctrlX Automation from Bosch Rexroth meets these requirements.
Handling on the machine. The start-up BoKa relies on two-jaw grippers from Röhm for its latest development, a sheet metal bending and welding construction in cube form. With these, a robot picks up individual workpieces directly at the machine for further parts handling.

igus has now developed a new linear and spatial gantry especially for large workspaces. With the two new kinematics, users can now move up to five kilograms. Both gantries are available directly from stock. In addition, they can be customized to the respective customer application, starting from a quantity of 1.
