Turnkey and integrated handling systems

HEITEC develops turnkey and integrated solutions from digital engineering to automation.

By standardising our automation concepts and taking your individual requirements into account, HEITEC is able to configure customer and application-specific solutions that optimally meet the technical requirements on the one hand and are also economically attractive on the other. Our handling systems not only increase your quality but also your productivity by reducing downtimes. This is a particularly important aspect for small and medium-sized companies on their way to automated production.

  • Compact robot cell for automated deburring

    The compact deburring cell enables the automated deburring of complex workpieces. This enables our customers to increase their productivity, minimise costs and reduce the workload of their employees, despite the ever-increasing quality requirements. The integrated rotary set-up station enables loading during machining - either manually or in combination with an additional robot. The entire deburring process is mapped virtually in CAD/CAM software - so you can test new components with customised tools at any time, including collision checks.

  • Multiflex modular automation system

    The Multiflex combines workpiece and pallet handling of up to two HELLER machining centres compactly in one robot cell. The cell consists of a basic module and can be expanded according to customer-specific requirements. From grippers, pallet racks and cleaning systems to a set-up station, the Multiflex can be flexibly configured. The cell enables parallel multi-lot production on up to two processing machines, thus maximising efficiency. New components can be virtually commissioned on the digital twin.

Precise & universal: our deburring tool

Our compact robot cell deburrs your workpieces automatically.

    Production start from zero to one hundred with HeiDetect Wheel Robot

    Production start from zero to one hundred - In August 2020, four of the fully automatic HeiDetect Wheel Robot wheel testing systems from HEITEC PTS were to be put into operation at the BORBET Group's plant in Thuringia. The four wheel testing systems were to be 100% ready for production after the production break for the start of the foundry in Thuringia. The usual start-up time was not planned - from zero to one hundred was the motto! In addition, the entire production at BORBET in Thuringia was to be converted to 100% traceability of the wheel data across the entire value chain using DMC labelling.
