Robot Handling
Robots are state of the art in brickworks and clay roofing tile factories today. They stand for process
and perfection. In the clay brick and tile industry, robots are mainly equipped with grippers and used for
handling. They pick up bricks and roofing tiles, turn them and set them down again, depending on the tool they
can pick up single products or whole rows. But robots can do much more!
Stretch Hood
Innovative packaging for optimal shipment and reliable product securing is in demand particularly in the
building materials industry. In addition to protection against dirt, water, and damage during transport,
high stability and optimised utilisation of storage space are important criteria for efficient product
packaging technology.
