The Assembly Lab system was developed for the laboratory and approval phase of medical and pharmaceutical devices. It is designed for initial small series batches for market entry. Separate workpiece carriers allow for simple format changeovers. Optional extensions such as visual controls or labeling are possible. The platform can also be configured for other products.

Machine features
Parts handling
Components are automatically removed using vacuum, grippers or tongs and accurately transferred to the Assembly Lab transport. This can be performed in a linear or swivel movement. To increase the output, these systems can be set up at multiple locations to enable loading and unloading tasks at the same time.
Automation
An automated, reproducible production process with servo-based product transport simplifies the manual product loading and removal process and the targeted approach of each individual processing step.
