Machine loading
Turning, grinding, milling, honing or some other machining process: Automation was an early adopter in machine loading and the Zimmer Group was there from the start. While there were still many “externally attached” solutions in the early years, these are now increasingly being integrated directly into the machine concept and design. We offer space-saving automation solutions on robots, on machines or even directly in the work area. It goes without saying that our components guarantee perfect protection against chips and cooling lubricants. This is how we provide you with technical systems that perform at the highest level, even in difficult operating conditions.

Machine loading with 7-axis robot
In this intelligent production cell – networked with an IIoT platform – a heavy-duty robot from the KR FORTEC family is mounted on a linear unit in the center. The robot loads various tooling machines with base bodies, arms and carousels of a robot. To be able to grip these different workpieces, it is equipped with an automatic exchange system. A spindle is used for deburring.
