General information
Multi-axis systems
Low-mass systems The low-mass systems manufactured by Berger Lahr are equipped with stationary motors in order to reduce the moving mass. When working with small loads requiring fast positioning and a short cycle time, e.g. small-parts handling, the low moving mass enhances the dynamics of the handling process. >
Multi-axis systems Multi-axis systems
Linear modules manufactured by Berger Lahr may be combined to form multi-axis systems. These systems vary in the type, size and co-ordination of the combined axes. Depending on individual requirements, the systems may be equipped with gripping and processing tools, operated as autonomous units or integrated into assembly and pro-duction lines.Double- and triple-axis systems differ based on the wor-king area and working direction of constituent linear po-sitioning system, linear-, portal-, and wall-mounted portal
professional robots. A parallel series of products is the highly dynamic, >

3 The wall-mounted portal robot, designed to
professional handle tasks on vertical surfaces, operates next to the working area. Mounting extensions, extra protective coverings and secured
professional doors can turn the wall-mounted portal robot into an autonomous handling unit. >
