Profitable multiplication of a manufacturing concept
In 2017, Rohde & Schwarz implemented a chained production line for the automated milling of aluminium parts at its Teisnach site. After several sister plants were implemented in the following years, the first plant has now been expanded to include automated raw part handling. Gressel has been a partner for workpiece clamping technology throughout all these years.
Smart integration for greater efficiency
The small family-owned company Torneria Novoletto near Milan manufacturers sophisticated components for the chemical, pharmaceutical, and medical industries. With the R-C2 automation concept, which combines clamping devices and grippers, users achieve high operational flexibility in parts processing and benefit from greater cost-efficiency. Set-up and changeover efforts in fully automated complete machining are significantly reduced, and output is increased. Last but not least, because the robotic solution helps compensate for the skilled labor shortage.
Review GRESSEL + SCHUNK Clamping and Automation Days 2025
Full halls, great discussions and real practice: In short, our Clamping and Automation Days 2025 in Aadorf were a complete success. Over 140 participants (a new record) took the opportunity to find out about the latest developments in clamping technology and modern machine automation (vice automation, workpiece automation, pallet automation, workpiece & pallet automation R-C2, flexible manufacturing system).
Future-orientated advice
Future-orientated advice In order to be able to clamp components as reliably and efficiently as possible, the right clamping device must be found for each workpiece pool. Fraune Metallbearbeitung, which initially relied on fixed-jaw clamps, showed just how crucial advice can be in this regard. Reiner Hartmann from Gressel made the Delbrück-based company rethink its […]
Review of the EMO 2025
EMO 2025 in Hanover was a complete success for GRESSEL. Over five intensive days at the trade fair, we were able to hold numerous technical discussions, make new contacts and strengthen existing partnerships. Particularly pleasing: the great interest in our solutions – from classic machine vises to modern automation systems.
