Fully automated production lines

Langzauner hydraulic presses in downstroke design
  • 40 robots
  • 650 t presses
  • 1600 t presses

RTM Press

Large hydraulic press on which airfoil components are produced. Due to a Torsion-free steel girder construction, this RTM press withstands the heaviest loads. A sliding table transports the molds and preforms into the press room, making the production process easy and safe. The sliding table additionally allows a temperature control of the molds outside the press.

One-stop-shop Langzauner

A new era has been initiated in the sector of multiprocess-capable forming presses. We develop hydraulic presses and automation solutions, such as the 2600 t short-stroke press for the Thermoplastic Composites Technology Center “TTC” at the Leibniz Institute for Composite Materials GmbH (IVW). Both standard and high-performance fibre-reinforced plastics (e.g. ABS, PC, ABs/PC, PEEK, PA, etc.) are processed with the press up to more than 450 °C. With a fully integrated “bolt-on injection unit“ from ENGEL, thermoplastic fibre composite materials – for example, thermoplastic organosheets – are formed and functionalised in a single integrated step.

FAQ

The solutions shown are aimed at companies that manufacture composite components in high quality and often in automated processes, such as aviation, automotive, aerospace, or other high-tech industries. Examples include wing components, complex prepreg components, or thermoplastic composite components that have to be processed quickly at high temperatures.

Based on the examples shown, it is easy to see how loading, pressing, milling, sanding, and stacking can be automated. Anyone considering a new line or upgrading existing machines gets concrete ideas for what such a solution could look like in their own operation.

Technical data sheets show numbers, dimensions, and performance values. Videos additionally show the real process: cycle times, handling, ergonomics, and space requirements. This makes it possible to quickly assess whether a machine or line fits your own material flow, available space, and working methods.

The videos provide insight into long-belt grinding machines for metal, from grinding and structuring to polishing sheets, metal plates, and welded structures. They show how the systems work in real operation and what surface qualities can be achieved with them.

The videos provide insight into different systems: fully automatic production lines with up to 40 robots and large downstroke presses, a large RTM press for aircraft wings, a flexible laboratory press with servo-hydraulics, a high-performance system in the Solvay Application Center, and a multi-process short-stroke press. This allows technology, workflows, and references to be seen realistically “in operation.”
