Move SEIL manipulator for front and rear windows
27.11.2025
This is where our pneumatic SEIL manipulator is used to move front and rear windows. To cover a large working area, it can be moved along a light-duty crane rail system. A telescopic extension was integrated into the bridge rail to allow the manipulator to navigate around the hall columns. The lifting motion is controlled by a pneumatic balancing system to ensure movements that are as smooth and precise as possible. The windows are swiveled continuously using a joystick on the integrated control unit. This makes it easy to adjust the windows to the various angles required by the special load carrier and the storage configuration.

PARALLEL manipulator for electric motor rotors
13.10.2025
Here, our PARALLEL manipulator is used with a gripping device for handling rotors. The rotors are gripped by interchangeable gripping jaws around their circumference. Our stepless up/down control system enables extremely precise and fast movements. Thanks to the endless rotary joints on the rotational axes, the pneumatic manipulator can be moved freely throughout the space without any restrictions.

SEIL manipulator for plastic parts and cartons
13.06.2025
Here, our pneumatic SEIL manipulator is used on a slewing jib. Thanks to the lightweight construction of our swivel slewing jibs and the counterbalance control with adjustable load weight, the components can be handled with virtually no resistance. The combined gripping device features suction grippers for picking up the cardboard boxes. The plastic part to be unpacked is picked up by an integrated gripping unit. The various component lengths can be adjusted using locking pins.

TELESKOP Manipulator: Move the Motor Housing and Adapter Plate
04.06.2025
Our TELESKOP manipulator, integrated into a lightweight crane system, enables the safe and ergonomic handling of engine blocks from the production line to the test bench. The specially developed gripping device ensures precise gripping and exact alignment of the engine housing and test fixture.

TELESKOP manipulator for soft top installation
03.06.2025
Here, our TELESKOP manipulator is used for the effortless installation of soft tops in automotive final assembly. This manipulator is mounted on a suspended light crane system . The lifting motion is controlled by a specially designed balancing mechanism to ensure smooth installation.

What is a manipulator?
22.05.2025
Lifting and Moving with Ease: A handling manipulator is a technical aid designed to assist with the movement, positioning, and handling of heavy, bulky, or delicate loads. It is used in situations where conventional lifting equipment, such as cranes or simple gripper arms, reaches its limits—for example, in precision assembly, customized positioning, or ergonomic handling. In most cases, material-handling manipulators consist of a connection unit, […]

PARALLEL manipulator for glass roofs
13.11.2024
Our industrial PARALLEL manipulator is used to install glass roofs on automobiles. The lifting motion features pneumatic balancing. Thanks to the endless joints on the rotational axes, the work area can be covered without any obstructing stops. The second vacuum circuit for the suction grippers provides additional safety. The swivel motion is controlled continuously via a joystick integrated into the control unit.

PARALLEL manipulator for gusset plates
21.05.2024
This is where our PARALLEL manipulator on a pedestal is used for the effortless handling of 40kg gusset plates in steel processing. This manipulator stands on our mobile base plate, which can be moved with a pallet truck or forklift truck.

Loose load handling attachment for container lids and trays
06.03.2024
Here, a loose load-handling device is used on the chain hoist in the light crane system for lifting and moving container lids and trays. The locking mechanism is automatically opened and closed by the hoisting device during lifting. Of course, it is not possible to open it under load.
