  • Keep it simple🤔 ➡️ Optimizing intralogistics and material flow powered by shooter mechanism. 📦 Boxes don't have to be transferred manually. Shooters are often used in lean production environments to reduce in-house transport and handling outlay. ➡️ Refilling racks by automatically interchanging empty and full boxes between a mobile transport trolley or AGV/AMR and a flow rack. A gravity-operated mechanism ensures that containers do not fall out of the trolley during transport. This mechanism is released when the trolley docks with a rack to load containers. #lean #robotics #automation #ergonomics #safety

  • 🌟 Discover item conduit systems for industry 🌟 The item conduit systems offer you a wide range of options for the installation of cable ducts in industry. You can choose between the K conduit system (plastic), the E conduit system and the modular conduit system (both aluminum). 🔹 Conduit system K: The profiles of this system are fixed directly into the groove of profile 8 with a clip. They are available in two widths and heights. In general, the K system matches the contour of the X profile 8 and complements the integrated cable duct of the XMS profile. Whether in vertical or overhead installation, the swivel locks prevent slipping when laying the cable ducts. 🔹 E conduit system: Based on U-shaped aluminum profiles with matching covers. This system is available in five widths and six heights, with or without screw channel. They allow for a wide range of applications, from small cable ducts to large cable trays. Create protective, watertight openings in the desired positions with grommets, including matching profile cutouts. 🔹 Modular duct system: Consists of variably combinable support profiles. Realizes duct sizes from 40 x 40 mm to 160 x 160 mm with wall profiles. By rotating the wall profiles on the support profiles, the system ensures simple installation.

  • Discover the latest product of the week from item Experts: Table Column Set D40/D30 K (0.0.707.59) The solution for lightweight, robust height-adjustable work benches! Profiles D40 are used to hold the Table Top and also enclose the Tube D16 6 A/F, which acts as a synchroniser shaft, transmitting torque from the cranked handle to the table columns so their height can be adjusted in sync. The table legs are synchronised discretely and reliably by Tube D16 6 A/F (0.0.699.97), which runs through the Profile Tubes under the Table Top as a power transmission element. We look forward to sharing more details on particular products each week! hashtag Explore more about this product > #latestproduct #productoftheweek #shop #itemshop #profiles

  • Time is money! 🕒   Smooth material supply processes are essential, and combining the item Suspended Conveyor System with the learning-capable AMRs from Peer Robotics offers huge potential to move parts that typically use a lot of space and are too large for small load carriers or that can easily become entangled.   Whether you’re transporting lightweight or heavy materials, the end result of combining these two systems is a material supply solution for automated production geared to suit your specific requirements.   Read more about this innovative collaboration on the item blog now  > https://lnkd.in/eQGxFUTW #manufacturing #production #processes #robotics #conveyor

  • Discover the latest product of the week from item Experts: Frontal Transfer with the item Suspended Conveyor System. The quick-to-install Suspended Conveyor is an intelligent alternative to moving goods from Point A to Point B in load carriers.   The Release Unit stops carriages from traveling along a Conveyor Rail. When actuated, via a Bowden Cable or a roller element, it will allow any number of carriages to pass through it.   The Transfer Bracket ensures materials can be reliably passed between a rack and a mobile trolley. ➡ For more technical details and product capabilities, Explore more details about this product > https://lnkd.in/ezSKg7kS We look forward to sharing more details on particular products each week! #latestproduct #productoftheweek #shop #itemshop #profiles

  • 🚀 Status information along the production line! 🚀 Order picking and failure prevention are essential to maintain efficiency in our operations. Kanban is a visual method to control production as part of Just in Time (JIT) and Lean Manufacturing. As part of a pull system, it controls what is produced, in what quantity and when. Its literal meaning is that of a (digital) flag or signal. Imagine what happens when a conveyor belt meets LED strip signage. The combination of these elements can transform the way we manage and optimize our production lines, providing clear, real-time visibility into the status of each process. Innovation and efficiency at its best! #kaban #leanmanufacturing #innovation
