Two automatic small parts warehouses at the Hettich company in Spenge ensure smooth warehouse processes. The goals in the implementation were to guarantee production security through inventory reserves, short replenishment times and unmanned KLT handling by a robot.

Filling, weighing, knocking over, rolling, palletizing and, on the other hand, depalletizing and emptying of sacks with plastic compounds- at Sitraplas, it was important to manage many processes as efficiently as possible in one system. The performance could be doubled.

At Frisia, chipboards for the furniture industry are rotated 180 degrees using a reversible star and checked from both sides by cameras. Flawless plates are then palletized and the faulty plates are removed using a NiO belt.

The challenge with the SchapfenMühle was the large variance in the dimensions and filling levels of the sacks with flour, meal and peeling products. de Man created a palletizing system with two pallet magazines, a bottom layer magazine and a pallet lifting station.

A robot stacks 18 different sized and heavy boxes with menu trays in the plant for Prima Menu on EURO pallets. Different product types can be palletized in parallel by the two roller conveyors, palletizing stations and pallet conveyor lines of our MRZ 2.2.

At Crienitz, due to the spatial conditions, we placed the robot on a pedestal and let it protrude through a ceiling opening to the first floor. This way, he can both take the sacks from the pickup position on the upper floor and place them on the pallet on the ground floor.

In the two plants for Haering, filled buckets and canisters of different sizes and weights are stacked on empty pallets. The combination gripper designed by us takes on the handling of the products as well as the pallets and intermediate layers.

The gripper at Frisia is designed in such a way that it clamps the packages with furniture parts from above through a large contact surface. This is necessary because there are small parts in the upper area and a punctual pressure could result in the packages being pressed in.

Our fully automatic bag shrink-wrapping system for Nölke consists of several conveyor lines, robots, camera and the shrink-wrapping station. Challenge: The system had to be suitable for shrink-wrapping a wide variety of products as well as to be flexible with regard to the composition within the bag.

The finished furniture parts at Frisia are individually and transversely conveyed out of drilling machines and put together in layers. The robot removes them closed with its vacuum area gripper and stacks them on EURO pallets.

For a clean room, HPT needed a transport system for packed primary packaging that should be suitable for the transport of clean packs as well as aluminum trays and integrate a repacking station.

At least 50 trays per minute, the ability to run two product variants without conversions and the stainless steel version for the entire mechanics were the requirements when automating a production line for lasagna at Prima Menu GmbH.

At 3M Espe, KLTs with local anesthetics are brought to the storage level via a distribution lift and stored multi-deep in the racking system. The ChannelCar is used here, which moves independently of the main device and significantly increases the availability of the warehouse.

The small load carriers are stored 4 times deep at Dremec with the special feature that the KLT are stored transversely. The single-aisle warehouse serves a total of 2 storage blocks, each with 40 levels one above the other and 23 rows next to each other. The total capacity is 7,312 KLT.

A new production hall was connected to the shipping and picking department at Rügenwalder with a total of 168 meters long conveyor line. In the middle of the line there is also a double-sided infeed facility for the existing production.

Increased throughput, high efficiency, ease of use and the greatest possible protection for the worker in interaction with the robot on a fixed workpiece carrier - these were the requirements for the implementation of partial automation for the production of PUR parts at MKG Metall- und Kunststoffververarbeitunggesellschaft mbH.

For Heinrich Nölke GmbH & Co. KG, de Man developed a sorting machine that consists of three cells and does the erection of the display boxes as well as the creation of assortments and the closing of the lids, while being extremely flexible.

We developed a semi-automatic palletizing system with two robots for Nordzucker. The canisters and buckets are palletized with the same gripper, a change of gripper is required for the boxes. A large suction gripper for intermediate layers is attached by a magnet.

The two AKLs at ABB's location in Ratingen are each divided into the areas of channel storage with a storage and retrieval machine, automatic flow-through storage for manual picking and input and output locations. The storage and retrieval machine consists of a shelf vehicle and a canal vehicle (ChannelCar) and can store up to seven containers of 600x400x280 mm in a row.

The requirements for the creation of a spare parts warehouse for Hörmann were the picking and delivery of approximately 200 orders within 24 hours, the integration into the existing hall building and the connection to an existing warehouse management system.
