Swivel rotary modules from Jung

Freedom of rotation for the grippers

Jung is expanding its product range of dynamic endless rotary axes with a series of 2- and/or 1-channel rotary feedthroughs for connecting pneumatic grippers and vacuum suction pads.

Load mapping for optical sensors

Smart placement control of workpiece carriers

The smart task functionality Load Mapping, which Sick provides for its smart optical sensors with IO-Link, makes it possible to record the occupancy of workpiece carriers during the feeding process into an assembly cell and output it as a digital sensor signal to the robot controller.

Autonomous transport solution

Free ride in the Smart Factory

In the Smart Factory of pump manufacturer Wilo, driverless transport systems from IBG move pumps or assemblies between manual and automatic workstations.

New orders

Kuka helps with the conversion of assembly lines

Converting existing assembly lines is time-critical. Kuka is supporting automotive manufacturers in the efficient conversion of systems as part of two new orders. The company also wins an order to implement a new fuselage engine assembly line.

Transportation system

In the right position at the right time

A manufacturer relies on the PosyArt transfer system from IEF-Werner to apply laser marking to plastic paint trays after production. It conveys the components on workpiece carriers to the stations.

Modular transfer solution

In the flow through the assembly line

Schnaithmann has developed a transfer system for a new oven line for V-Zug, a Swiss manufacturer of household appliances. It ensures the smooth transportation of different appliance types through the individual assembly and testing stations and adapts to different production requirements.

Basics

Factors for selecting reusable transport solutions

Conveyor lines in distribution centers have a high demand for sturdy plastic containers with specially designed base rims. When selecting reusable transport solutions in the Logistics 4.0 environment, factors such as product protection and auto-ID markings also play an important role.
