Utilization-optimized, flexibly arranged production modules that are loaded by driverless transport systems and production planning and control that flexibly occupy these modules: Matrix production and SWAP-IT result in a production infrastructure that enables highly efficient production.
Many transport tasks can be realized with the help of linear technology. Pre-configured solutions are available to simplify the interaction between the linear unit, motor, gearbox and controller. This minimizes the effort required for research and design.
