Handling applications

Due to the huge array of technologies available and through years of experience, we are able to offer solutions to most handling applications. By using both proved systems from specialist manufacturers and bespoke products we can meet your requirements. Robots have not only power and speed but also accuracy dexterity and sensitivity. They are regularly used in a variety of industries.

Handling
Handling covers a very large range of applications. Dedicated pick and place robots are designed specifically for very fast and accurate work often coupled to a vision system. They are often used in the food industry. Handling can also include machine tending. Robots are excellent for working with injection moulding machines, blow moulders, CNC mills and lathes, spark eroders, presses etc. By automating with robots machines can be worked much more efficiently and even through the night and weekends to give the best return on what is invariably very expensive hardware.

With the prices of used robots so low and the pressures on manufacturing companies so great robots are no longer the preserve of the motor industry. For every application listed below there are hundreds of derivative and related possibilities. With hundreds of thousands of robots installed worldwide in industries as diverse as sawmills to pharmaceuticals robots have time and again provide huge gains in productivity, safety, economy and quality.

The most common robot handling applications are: 
  • Palletising
  • Pick & Place
