We are at SPS 2025 - live in Nuremberg! Meet us from 25-27 November in Hall 6, Stand 421 and experience innovations up close - we look forward to seeing you!
Efficient automation projects and error-free design
WinMOD allows detailed simulation of specialised production processes. With the help of customised libraries, machines and systems in all sectors can be modelled virtually.
Sorting and picking systems for small goods such as cartons, plastic boxes or other piece goods. The goods are transported via classic roller conveyors, belt conveyors as well as the typical cam roller tracks, Belt curves and accumulating roller conveyors.
This technology area comprises conveyor systems that transport and sort pallets and pallet cages. The conveying elements are large roller and chain conveyors in combination with lifting, turning and sliding tables. Magazines for empty pallets are also typical here.
These systems are usually fully automated high-bay warehouses that are operated by storage and retrieval machines and controlled via distributed automation systems. The orders for storage and retrieval are generated via warehouse management systems.
Automated systems that pick up parts from A to B and set them down again with a defined orientation - typically for loading, sorting, picking or packing. Core systems are industrial robots (Delta, SCARA, 6 axes, Cartesian) or gantry axes.
Robotics plays a central role in modern manufacturing by enabling the automation of production processes and increasing efficiency and precision. Robots are used in various areas, such as welding, assembly, painting or packaging of products.
Production lines combine processes, material flow and control systems to create a production system with cycle and quality assurance. They consist of combinations of assembly, processing and testing stations. They also include transfer technology, buffers and often a highly specialised automation system.
Electric monorail systems are used as connecting conveyor technology over long distances. The overhead trolleys travel fully automatically with integrated electric drives and controls and are usually routed via a centralised control system.
This chain-driven overhead or floor conveyor technology is driven by continuously running power strands (chains). Transport trolleys are engaged, transported, disengaged at stoppers and buffered via chain dogs.
Automated self-driving vehicles as a connecting material flow solution. Driving takes place either completely track-free via defined lanes or markers (AGV) or via free navigation with automatic dynamic obstacle avoidance (AMR).
Engineering discipline for the development, manufacture and maintenance of machines, plants and production systems. Typical applications include machine tools, handling technology, automotive/aerospace, packaging and assembly systems.
