Robotics for the automation of component handling

In situations in which the limited flexibility of linear systems reduces their potential, robotic technology using multiaxial joints and gripper arms comes into its own. Langzauner Perfect offers tailor-made robotic-based solutions designed for the highly efficient handling of materials and components in upstream and downstream processes.

Customised component handling by Langzauner

Langzauner can provide component handling adapted to your individual needs along your process chain. A holistic approach to handling forms the basis of our approach in our projects. The properties of tools and components, spatial considerations, load distribution, set-up and cycle times are also taken into account in our design process together with the existing control systems and the incorporated software elements.

Thanks to the expertise of our in-house R&D department, we can undertake all the required planning and realisation stages necessary to achieve efficient 3D material transfer:

Hardware and software engineering
Simulations with feasibility analyses
Risk evaluation
Construction
Conveyor and security technology for the production flow

Your independent partner for 3D material transfer systems

Open systems and flexibility are necessary if technology is to be at the cutting edge. Langzauner is not restricted to the use of specific robotic systems or manufacturers but will employ the best robotic solution that will provide the most efficient operation of your press.

Your benefits:

Open system: multiaxial robots offered by all manufacturers can be integrated
Continuous data collection for digitalised production processes
Continuous processes for maximum efficiency

We will work closely with you during the development process to find the optimal technical solution that will provide a perfectly coordinated material flow. And at the focus of our concept will be efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Whether you are planning an upgrade or to acquire a new system, if you decide to opt for Langzauner based in Lambrechten in Austria you can be sure that state of the art robotics will be employed for your production.

FAQ

The robotics solutions are designed for industrial applications with press and composite processes, such as those found in the aviation, automotive, caravan, sports, and aerospace industries, as well as in metalworking and woodworking. Robotics can be integrated wherever components have to be moved between preheating, pressing, cooling, post-processing, and quality assurance. Whether for small series with frequent changeovers or highly automated high-volume lines, the concept is tailored to the processes, component variants, and layout.

Customers are supported throughout the entire project. At the start, components, tools, cycle times, and spatial conditions are analyzed and the material flow is defined. This is followed by the specific design of the robotics cell, including gripper technology, conveyor technology, and safety technology. After design and manufacturing, Langzauner handles implementation with CE marking, transport logistics, installation, and on-site commissioning. Training and support during the ramp-up phase ensure that the robotics solution operates stably and efficiently in real production.

For existing systems, Langzauner first analyzes the existing layout, safety concept, and control structure. On this basis, a robotics cell is positioned so that material paths remain short and existing components, such as sliding tables, mold tool shuttles, or transfer axes, are meaningfully integrated. Interfaces to press control and safety technology are designed on a project-specific basis. This creates a retrofit solution that uses existing investments while significantly increasing the degree of automation in component handling.

The robotics solutions are designed so that process data can be continuously collected along the material flow, such as positions, cycle times, gripper states, or signals from upstream and downstream stations. This data can be connected to higher-level systems such as control systems or IoT platforms and used for monitoring, reporting, and optimization. Component handling is therefore not only mechanically automated, but also digitally transparent and forms a viable basis for more advanced Industry 4.0 concepts.

Robotics demonstrates its strengths when complex movements, frequent product changes, or high requirements for precision and repeat accuracy are involved. Typical use cases include loading and unloading presses, handling hot or sensitive components, and transitions between preheating, molding, and post-processing steps. Multi-axis robots can flexibly map different workpieces, grippers, and motion paths and therefore take over tasks that would be difficult or highly limited with conventional linear axes.
