Sustainability through Formhand-Technology
Formhand technology enables the just one gripping pad to handle several different and complex objects by allowing the integrated gripping cushion to adapt seamlessly to the geometry and surface of the components.
The magic lies in the blue cushion: The Formhand gripping cushion is filled with a freely movable granulate and thus gently adapts to any surface, ensuring true shape variability. This universal, granulate-filled gripping cushion is combined with an electrically generated volume flow, with which the Formhand technology replaces inflexible handling solutions.
This universality in object handling of the Formhand gripping modules saves companies costs that would otherwise be required for special grippers. Costs for energy, storage and maintenance as well as changeover times are simply eliminated.
With the help of Formhand technology, other grippers that would usually be used specifically for individual products become obsolete, meaning that changeover times for these are also completely eliminated. Furthermore, the additional grippers no longer have to be stored and the costly maintenance of the obsolete grippers can also be saved.
In the case of the Formhand gripper module itself, the worn parts can be changed within 30 seconds thanks to the fast and simple changeover concept of the gripper module.
This ensures secure operation in the blink of an eye with the same functionality.
Formhand technology thus stands for sustainability combined with flexible processes, because it is the reduction of complexity, costs, effort and personnel that enables resource-efficient and agile production and logistics.
