Overview
In the woodworking sector, ATIS offers an industrial panel manipulator equipped with a vacuum gripper (or expansion gripper) designed for lifting, tilting and precise positioning of large panels and components. The system ensures a secure grip and provides full load control through a weight-compensation mechanism, enabling smooth, natural movements and reducing operator physical effort.

Features and benefits

• Secure and stable panel gripping with vacuum or expansion gripper
• Weight-compensation system for near-weightless handling
• Tilt capability up to 90° for precise orientation and positioning
• Smooth, controlled movements that reduce operator fatigue
• Reduces incorrect postures and repetitive bending
• Improves handling precision and minimizes material damage

Operational capabilities

• Safely lift panels
• Tilt loads up to 90°
• Precisely position panels
• Reduce operator physical strain
• Work under improved ergonomic conditions

Applications

• Furniture manufacturing: handling panels, sides, tops and assembly components
• Doors and joinery: large elements in production and finishing
• CNC machining centers: accurate loading/unloading of panels
• Assembly lines: fast transfer of components between stations
• Warehouses and internal logistics: safe handling of panels and semi-finished products

Customization
ATIS industrial manipulators are engineered and configured according to load characteristics, available space and production objectives. The gripping system and mechanical configuration can be adapted to specific process requirements.
