Icon für unendlich viele Möglichkeiten durch volle Kompatibilität im gesamten Automatisierungsbaukasten

Endless possibilities

Customized solutions for every application: From conveyor technology to safety fences, linear motion systems and material handling systems.
Simple – Fast – Flexible

Minimal parts, maximum possibilities:

The World-Class System based on the LEAN principle
A main characteristic of a conventional product range is a large number of parts: The more possibilities on offer, the higher the number of individual parts. The Robotunits world-class product range based on the principle of LEAN works differently. The number of parts is deliberately kept small, yet the number of possible solutions is remarkably high.

To achieve this goal, Robotunits focuses on research and development of multifunctional components that are utilized throughout the entire Modular Automation System. As a result, our customers find their way around our product range easily and the ordering system works quickly and simply Additionally, our efficient product line reduces the storage costs for our customers to a minimum.

More with less

Our Modular Automation System helps you to achieve more with less effort. The small number of individual parts and components make the system fast and easy applicable.
This helps to avoid mistakes and implement ideas more effectively. Implementation and logistics are simplified, which shortens the entire production processboosting productivity, cutting costs and increasing profits.

The universal 14 mm standard t-slot of our Extrusion Technology

One solution for all requirements

The Robotunits Extrusion Technology forms the heart of the Modular Automation System and is crucial to the success of your automation projects. Our aluminum extrusions impress with their high torsional and resistance torques and low weight. With the uniform  14 mm t-slot in all Robotunits extrusions, we guarantee seamless compatibility throughout the entire modular system. This opens up a wealth of possibilities for our customers’ individual applications.

The play-free Fastening Technology

Positive fit, play-free and vibration-safe

No drilling, no milling! This guarantees quick and easy assembly. Our unique Fastening Technology plays a decisive role here. It offers strength comparable to welding technology, with an impressive tensile force of up to 4 tons – all achieved with just a single connection. In short: maximum strength at an attractive price. Our Fastening Technology is also characterized by its low overall height and enables unlimited reusability.

No drilling. No milling.

Simple, fast and secure connection.

With just a few simple steps and a single tool per extrusion series, our Robotunits extrusions can be connected positively, play-free and vibration-safe. Additionally, for precise positioning or any adjustments made later, the connection can be easily loosened and re-fastened at any time.

The pre-tensioned uniform 14 mm extrusion t-slot in combination with the expansion wedges guarantee a vibration-safe connection across the entire 50mm extrusion series.

Vibration-safe connection

for maximum process reliability

Our vibration-safe solution with solid construction in 50mm series offers considerable advantages: It ensures that structures not only hold up reliably after pre-assembly during transportation, but also in daily operation . Thanks to the low connector height, the design remains compact and efficient, which also contributes to stability.

Powerful and reliable

Strength comparable to a welded connection

The powerful Extrusion and Fastening Technology from Robotunits is characterized by screwed connections on both sides, which are achieved with only one component . This solid connection between the aluminum extrusion and fastener is achieved using 2, 4 or 8 drop-in nuts and screws, depending on the type of connection, and achieves impressive breaking forces of up to 150 kN (PIL 5020, flat). As a result, the system offers exceptional stability and resilience, ideal for demanding industrial applications.

This view shows the maximum breaking force of the fastener load in the example PIL 5020 (flat) as a connection with 8 drop-in nuts and screws and PIL 5050 as a connection with 2 drop-in nuts and screws.

Flexible, made-to-measure positioning and fastening

e.g. with the 40/50 corner bracket

Simply thinking around the corner: with our ingeniously simple 40/50 corner bracket, extrusions in 40 and 50mm series, as well as non-system surfaces, can be connected at a 90° angle.

Extrusion series 40 and 50 can be combined

All in all - everything with everything.

The right extrusion for every application: Depending on the requirements in terms of space, appearance and the required load capacity, our 40 or 50 mm series extrusions can be used as solutions from our Modular Automation System. These series can also be easily combined using multifunctional corner brackets and other accessories.
