Attachments from KAUP are not only "The helping hands of your forklift truck". They can also be "the helping hands of your automated guided vehicle", significantly expanding the application possibilities of the innovative automated guided vehicles (AGVs). Whether integrated sideshift, bale clamp or telescopic forks: a wide variety of attachments from the KAUP product range can be integrated into AGVs. It does not matter whether the attachment is electronically or hydraulically operated. As with forklift trucks, KAUP also works with all manufacturers of automated guided vehicles.

The here and now is electric. This is not exclusively true for cars and industrial trucks of various kinds. Even attachments for automated guided vehicle systems, forklift trucks or pedestrian stackers are now electrically powered. With the e-op series, KAUP has electrified the most important implement functions and its range includes Sideshifter, Fork Positioner, Rotator and Double Pallet Handler with electronic drives for a wide variety of material handling tasks.

The ‚Smart Load Control‘ (SLC) system regulates, as the only one on the market, the clamping force on appliance-/carton clamps exclusively load dependent and not load pattern dependent. The weight is decisive for the flexible definition of the clamping force - not the dimensions of the load. The aim of the system is to ensure that only as much clamping force as really necessary acts on the load.

The HS flex family was developed with the goal of "maximum productivity". Ergonomic aspects were completely redesigned, however, to allow for fast and fatigue-free working for operators and service personnel in every possible working situation. The HS flex handling system can be adapted to six different HERMLE machining centers. With a transport weight of up to 450 kg incl. plate and a storage volume of up to 50 plate positions, the HS flex covers a wide range of applications.

The RS 1 robot system is a fully fledged combination cell for pallet and workpiece automation. The robot operates fully automatically, and can flexibly grip, clamp and store workpieces up to 15 kg and pallets up to 60 kg. The RS 1 guarantees process-secure production round the clock, whilst winning customers over with maximum flexibility and productivity! The rack storage concept makes for an unusually high degree of autonomous running; gripper and device changing is fully automatic and the fully functional setup station allows for pallets, workpiece carriers and workpieces to be set up in parallel with the main operation. This means that the RS 1 can be used as an automation solution for very diverse machining tasks.

Junction systems are used anywhere sensor and actor signals need to be extended quickly and easly for connection to their superordinate control systems. Individual signals are either connected directly to the superordinate system via a homerun cable or via a connection interface. Optional LED displays for signal and power reduce the effort required to track down errors.

Hoppers and belts are the most important part of a production line. While they aren’t used for production themselves, they are a great help in a finely tuned system and significantly optimize the timings. Stop and go is not the watchword, but instead non-stop. Belt hoppers, caches and conveyor belts are all particularly gentle with the product and can be integrated into an existing plant system without any problems. Other advantages of our belt hoppers: - for stock parts for feeding and sorting systems - Extension of replenishment intervals for the operating staff - Dosed allocation of parts - Gentle feeding of parts - Optimization of conveying characteristics on feeder devices - Reduction of feeder device size - Reduction in space needed for part allocation We offer the following small conveyor belts: - With one or two tracks - With deflection rollers or knife edge - With AC/DC motor - Various lengths, scaffolding widths and straps

Some requirements are so specific that this is a job for our special machine construction department. Particularly complex processes can be automated with special machines. In some cases, our specialist expertise is also required to make adjustments to series-produced machines and plants. Whether feeding technology, devices and components, laser cells or support and assistance for other mechanical engineers or engineering companies, our SIM concept shows just why individuality is our strength. After all, while there are different optimization scenarios in every branch, it is special machine construction where particularly creative cross-industry expertise is required above all. With our knowledge of the branch, you have come to the right place. Products manufactured using special machines from SIM: — Pens — Food packaging machines

Metalworking companies are increasingly looking for practical solutions on how to quickly and easily carry out welding tasks. For small quantities, however, automation systems for welding have so far been difficult to implement, from an economical point of view. At the same time, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find qualified welders for manual processing. OTC DAIHEN EUROPE has developed EASY ARC, a new mobile welding robot system for workshop operation, which meets the economic and pragmatic requirements. EASY ARC includes a compact welding robot with intuitive OTC Easy-Teach control, which offers the operator with the perfect weld seam, thanks to the integrated expert system and manufacturer’s own 400A MIG / MAG power source inverter. The robot is mounted on a welding table that is prepared for holding standard clamping elements and equipped with rollers. The simple conversion of the system thus ensures appropriate flexibility in production.

Control cabinets form the technical "central nervous system" of every production plant. They supply machine and plant components with electrical energy, protect electrical circuits, control drives and network machines with the Internet. In addition, they act as an interface for all information on the current plant and processing status and link production exactly where processes need to be accelerated and efficiency increased. Our subsidiary ATR Industrie Elektronik GmbH is your competent partner for the construction of switchgear and switch cabinets. We supply a wide range of different versions based on all current national and international standards. Switchgear is used in almost all industries, in addition to the wood-based panel and metal industry, e.g. in the automotive sector, in turbine and compressor technology, in energy supply or also in cooling and air-conditioning technology.

The METRO SG HES range of single-phase material loaders enable processors to automate a key area of the production process cost effectively, bringing significant benefits for process management. Plastic granulate is conveyed quickly and cleanly to a processing machine hopper, a drying bin or a day bin as needed. The material loader is equipped with its own control, so that it recognizes when material is needed and automatically starts conveying. This keeps machines running and avoids costly downtime while eliminating material wastage, keeping the workspace clean and safe. The METRO SG HES range can handle throughputs of 15 to 200 kg/h.
