Conveyor technology for the automotive industry

Customised. Reliable. Efficient.

We are your competent partner for customised conveyor technology for goods in the automotive industry, whether made of steel, stainless steel or our TT aluminium profile system. We transport goods such as camshafts, gearboxes, engine blocks, vehicle axles, cylinder heads, brake discs, brake drums, wheel hubs or entire vehicle cabins either on workpiece carriers, pallets, in mesh boxes or directly on the conveyor technology.

With our modular system for numerous components such as roller conveyors, lift transfer units, vertical conveyors, belt conveyors, belt conveyors and more, combined with our decades of experience in the automotive industry, we can implement your conveyor logistics with the appropriate control and drive technology. The specific requirements and delivery specifications of the automotive industry are taken into account both in the mechanical design and in the hardware and software design.

Customised solutions such as special machines, workpiece carriers, handling devices, fixtures, special tensioning, special lubrication and special designs are a matter of course for us. Indexing is used for precise feeding and removal of components. We enable the identification and verification of correct and complete assembly or transport by integrating scanners and cameras as well as data transfer to higher-level systems or check whether the conveyed goods have the appropriate temperature for the subsequent processes. We support you in coordinating interfaces, connecting peripheral systems and liaising with the relevant manufacturers and suppliers.

What is conveyor technology in automotive engineering?

Conveyor technology in car manufacturing refers to the systems and machines used to move and handle materials, components and finished vehicles within a production facility. The aim is to make the production process more efficient and safer by transporting materials precisely and quickly from one production step to the next. This helps to reduce production costs and times and improves the overall efficiency of production.

Advantages of customised conveyor technology in car manufacturing

Through the use of individually developed conveyor technology, we can, among other things:

  • Feed, distribute, buffer, weigh, sort, pick, stack and unstack the conveyed goods.

  • Lift, lower or rotate the conveyed goods.

  • Optimise cycle times.

  • Load and unload machines and stations such as ovens, cooling stations, high racks or industrial washing machines.

  • Interlink or decouple production equipment.

  • Design assembly and testing stations according to ergonomic aspects.

  • Minimise downtimes through maintenance-friendly design and quick component replacement.

  • Visualise your system, integrate it into existing production and intralogistics and network it with you.

  • Transfer data to higher-level systems.

  • Identify and track the conveyed goods.

Realised conveyor technology: Car construction

Conveyor technology for wash basket transport in car manufacturing

The system includes roller conveyors, vertical conveyors, lifting transfer units and telescopic insertion devices to efficiently transport the washing baskets with vehicle parts and feed them safely into the industrial washing machine. After the washing process, the baskets are returned and unloaded.

Conveyor technology for brake drum transport in car manufacturing

We developed a customised conveyor system for the transport and precise positioning of brake drums with different diameters to a handling unit. The brake drums are first fed via an accumulation roller conveyor, separated by means of stopping and separating devices and then brought into a centred position via a special design with specially manufactured, hardened support rollers.

.

Conveyor technology for pallet cages in a pipe trolley system

With this conveyor technology, mesh boxes are fed via an accumulating roller conveyor and pushed into the tubular trolley system by specially developed lifting transfer units. They remain there until they are removed, with the design ensuring precise positioning and a secure hold of the mesh boxes.
