Transfer Module
The transfer module ensures the precise and safe handover of pipes between individual stations within the production line. It consists of a vertically movable lifting beam with laterally extendable gripping arms.
These reach up to 0.8 m to each side and enable pipes to be picked up and placed down strictly at their center of gravity – even with changing positions and pipe diameters.
The flexible gripping mechanism allows pinpoint handling without collisions, ensuring stable process control. The module is suitable both for single-part removal and for cyclical supply of entire processing stations.
Key Features
- Reduced cycle times: Gripping arms retract immediately after placement – no need to wait for full downstream transport
- Pipe separation included: Variable positioning allows targeted separation of individual pipes
- Compact drive: All arms are controlled by a central drive with robust mechanical linkage
- Modular use: Same mechanism can be used as a lift module in the pipe storage tower
- During the transfer, the pipe is not left to the force of gravity but is transferred in a carefully guided manner.
Configuration options
- Flexible drive options: Electrical (spindle lift) or hydraulic drive, depending on system requirements
- We offer a heavy and a light version – depending on your needs and requirements.
