Dr. Andreas Külschbach CEO

In order to be able to continue using the existing infrastructure and system technology at the customer, we combine our entire repertoire in a targeted manner for a light and resource-saving handling solution. A reduced gripper weight also makes a decisive contribution when planning energy-efficient new systems. This fully corresponds to our consistent approach in terms of sustainability.
