Transport and handling systems for machine tools
Around the world, satisfied customers in machine tools put their trust in the system solutions and extensive experience of SIEMPELKAMP Transport Systems. Our transport systems are optimized for intelligent movement of great loads. Even extremely heavy loads can be transported with the lowest possible energy input. The precise and reliable track guiding function is based on the RoundTrack system. A broad selection of carriages offers great flexibility: from manual dollies to automated guided vehicle systems for sophisticated applications.
Applications for transport and handling
- Transport of large and heavy products
- Machine operation and loading: precise interaction with robots, machines or plants
- Manual continuous flow production possible in the pre-assembly step of many machine sub-assemblies
- The RoundTrack is the only technically viable alternative in injection moulding
Highly precise machine interaction
Due to the very high repeatability of the uTrack system, interactions with other machines and complex approach situations can be implemented with the highest precision: e.g. interaction with robots, lifting platforms, turning stations or filling systems.
The advantage
- Simple integration in automated sequences
- Precise positioning and repeat accuracy
- Interaction with stationary systems
- Maximum safety for people and objects
- Maximum availability
- Low operating cost
Production lines for large and heavy products
An ideal area of application for the RoundTrack system is heavy-duty transportation, for example in the production of large engines in cycle assembly. Components can be easily moved from station to station by hand, reducing transport time to a minimum and maximizing safety.
