GRIPPER SYSTEMS AND EOAT FOR INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES
The increasingly dynamic production processes in today’s automotive industry require more and more flexibility from the production and manufacturing plants. A growing variety of models and constant reductions in product life cycles require gripper systems that adapt automatically to new situations in a variant change or which can be adapted or swapped out efficiently in the event of a model change.
With 30 years of experience, around 1 million hours of development and more than 3,000 grippers in this industry, we have the necessary expertise to meet these requirements. Nearly all well-known automotive manufacturers and their suppliers and system integrators already trust Zimmer Group gripping systems to handle their powertrain components and drivetrain components safely. Many of these earlier “special grippers” have now become standard EOAT solutions. Visit our system showroom
to find an overview with many more application examples.
Conventional combustion engines – our solution
With our extensive portfolio, we are able to handle all powertrain parts such as camshafts, crankshafts, cylinder blocks and heads as well as gearboxes and chassis parts for all customers in all process steps – whether motorcycles, cars, trucks, agricultural vehicles or even ships.
Casting
Zimmer Group’s EOAT solutions enable precise handling and efficient machining of cast parts for the production of high-quality engine components.
Forging
Gripper systems support the automated forging process to produce robust and resistant metal parts for combustion engines.
Machining
Our end-of-arm tooling systems ensure that the automation of processing machines runs smoothly.
Installing
Repetitive and physically demanding tasks in the automated assembly of complex engine assemblies are performed efficiently and reliably by our systems.
