Fully automatic from the blank to the finished component: machine tool (un)loading and finishing

The Austrian company ZIMM produces premium quality screw jack gearboxes. At the same time, it is upgrading its production environment. The company recently put a fully automated, modular manufacturing cell into operation. This was implemented by Vischer & Bolli and HBI Robotics and equipped with two KUKA robots. The cell reduces the workload on employees, increases productivity and improves the company’s competitiveness.

Vischer & Bolli AG and HBI Robotics GmbH were responsible for planning and integrating the cell: http://www.vb-tools.com; https://www.hbi-robotics.de/en/hbi-ro...
