The new Centrick manipulator from Roemheld enables the tilting and turning of heavy workpieces up to 2000 kg in weight. Integral articulated arms can continuously rotate workpieces and tilt them up to 90°.
This latest addition to the Modulog range of assembly and handling technology can tilt and turn products of any shape. According to Roemheld, the manipulator is ergonomic, space saving and efficient. Unlike conventional tilting and turning fixtures, the Centrick moves a component close to its centre of gravity, so the working height remains more constant. A small swivel radius ensures high stability and, if the manipulator is moved, holding brakes maintain a stable assembly position.
The Centrick from Roemheld is quiet to operate, with very low power consumption. Moreover, the manipulator can be easily integrated into assembly lines and is compatible with Industry 4.0 assembly processes. The company says that times can be reduced for assembly and materials handling, while safety is increased and downtime cut.
