The FMS is a flexible assembly system with workpiece carriers, which are transported on accumulating roller chains, special belts or chains. Standardised modules for exact positioning, lifting or rotating enable very quick implementation of complete assembly lines.
Numerous installations for renowned automotive industry suppliers have been proving the reliability and economic efficiency of this transport systems for years. The patented deflection technique reduces the control costs for the entire plant to a minimum.
