Trays for Automotation and Production

Automotive assembly lines are fully automated production lines on which vehicles are assembled step by step. This process comprises several stages, such as bodywork, paint finishing, engine assembly and final assembly. Deep-drawn trays play an important role here, as they transport components safely and in an organised manner. They ensure a clean and orderly feed of parts into the various assembly stages, which increases the efficiency and quality of the assembly. 

Thermoformed trays with ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) protection are used to protect sensitive electronic components from electrostatic discharge. Plastic thermoformed trays for electronic assembly lines enable the safe transport and handling of circuit boards and components throughout the entire production process. They are crucial for protecting sensitive parts from mechanical damage and electrostatic discharge. Their targeted use minimises production downtime and increases the efficiency of the assembly lines.

Thermoformed trays for CNC lathes are an essential component of the production process, as they optimise the handling and transport of workpieces. They ensure that the parts are ready in the correct order and position for further machining, which reduces production times and increases the overall efficiency of CNC machining processes. Furthermore, plastic deep-drawn trays help to ensure quality standards by protecting workpieces from damage and contamination.

Thermoformed trays for CNC milling machines provide a secure and organised means of transporting the workpieces to be machined. Before the machining process begins, the workpieces are placed into the specially designed plastic deep-drawn trays. These are designed to hold the workpieces firmly in place and protect them from damage and contamination. Their structured layout enables the workpieces to be quickly and easily identified and removed for the machining process.

Laser cutting machines are high-precision machining tools that use laser beams to make fine, accurate cuts in various materials such as metal, plastic and other materials. Before the cutting process begins, the parts to be machined are placed in deep-drawn trays. These are designed to hold the workpieces securely in place and ensure they remain correctly positioned throughout the cutting process. 

A key advantage of robot-assisted welding systems is their ability to produce consistently high-quality welds, regardless of the complexity or number of repetitions involved in the task. The precision of the robots makes it possible to carry out even difficult and demanding welding tasks that would be difficult or impossible to perform manually. This is particularly important in the automotive industry, where the safety and reliability of welded joints are of the utmost importance. Here too, deep-drawn trays are used to store, transport and position the parts. 

The robot arms can reach into the plastic thermoformed trays and place the components into the welding fixture. Thermoformed trays for welding robots are specially designed to hold the components securely and stably, so that the robot arms can pick them up and position them without any difficulty. The use of thermoformed trays significantly speeds up the entire process, as the parts are organised and readily available. 

The systems are capable of handling various types and sizes of screws and tightening them precisely within a predefined torque range. Deep-drawn trays for automated screwdriving systems serve as a secure and organised means of transporting screws and components before they are fed into the assembly stations. They enable the efficient supply of the required screws and help to reduce losses or errors during the assembly process.

Machines that apply adhesives and sealants with precision, for example in the manufacture of domestic appliances and automotive parts. Deep-drawn trays provide a stable platform on which the parts can be securely positioned whilst the adhesive or sealant is applied precisely and evenly. 

Adhesive and sealing systems apply adhesives and sealants with precision and are used in the manufacture of domestic appliances and automotive components. Deep-drawn trays for adhesive and sealing systems ensure that the parts to be processed are fed into the system securely and in an orderly manner.

Thermoformed trays for automated test systems are used to securely hold products or components during the test process and to position them in a defined orientation. This facilitates the automation of test procedures by stabilising the components and holding them in a specified orientation.

Plastic thermoformed trays, which are specifically designed for optical inspection systems with bespoke inserts, play a crucial role. They are used to hold components securely and reliably during the inspection process. They ensure the precise positioning of the parts to be inspected, enabling an accurate and reliable analysis of surface quality and dimensional accuracy.

Ultrasonic cleaning machines are sophisticated devices that use ultrasonic waves to thoroughly clean components by effectively removing contaminants from complex surfaces and internal structures. Deep-drawn plastic trays for ultrasonic cleaning machines aid the cleaning process.
