Robotics and Handling

Handling systems, assembly machines and robots must quickly and cost-efficiently adapt to the different products and increasingly more complex conditions of production. Modularly constructed machine and system concepts – equipped with an automation system that is also modular in design – provide the required flexibility. And that is where SIGMATEK comes into play.

 

Our system toolkit consists of high-performance single or multi-CPU solutions, innovative HMIs such as the wireless panel HGW 1033, fast and super compact I/Os, dynamic drive technology for multi-axis applications, Safety. The engineering tool LASAL provides integrated software for PLC, robotics, motion control, Safety and remote maintenance. The real-time Ethernet bus VARAN handles the fast system communication. Based on this modular toolkit, we design a tailor-made solution that significantly increases the flexibility and productivity of your machine.

 

Save costs and engineering time

Robotics Engineering

 

The system consistency of the SIGMATEK automation solution is complemented by the integration of PLC, robotics and motion control in a central control platform. You can thereby drastically reduce your hardware costs (proprietary robot control) and engineering. With the object-oriented design environment LASAL (IEC 61131-3 standard), the functional units of machines and manufacturing equipment can also be modularized and combined specifically for the customer. This mechatronic engineering simplifies your life. Whether synchronous feed, Pick & Place, gluing, assembly, testing and palletizing: The right function modules are already available in the LASAL library – also for motion control and robotic functions, such as the synchronization of several axes in space, jerk-limited motion profiles and kinematics for Portal, Gantry, SCARA, Delta and articulated arm.
