MAGNETIC LEVITATION ASSEMBLY MACHINES

The future is here

We welcome the new family of latest generation Gefit assembly machines, equipped with intelligent movement systems with magnetic levitation technology, which opens up a world of new floating possibilities: no limit to the freedom of independent movement and without any mechanical friction along the route, which also makes them very quiet. By eliminating any physical contact with guides or supports, maintenance interventions and any problems related to wear and cleaning are drastically reduced.

The absence of contact does not require lubricating the sliding parts and makes this system particularly suitable for the production of components in a clean room.

Flexibility and dynamism are the two watchwords; the integration with robotic gripping and positioning components extremely simplifies the transport system and the assembly phases

The magnetic shuttles for transporting the components to be assembled appear to “float” on the segments with a fluid and fast movement through the machine (they can reach a speed of 2 m/s, with very rapid acceleration and deceleration times).

The Gefit team of developers and engineers is constantly engaged in research to make the most of the potential of these magnetic levitation systems, also from the point of view of optimal use of space, with the aim of designing and building increasingly compact machines and smaller dimensions and overall dimensions.

Another advantage is being able to easily change the shuttles depending on the products, different in design and size and to configure alternative routes dynamically. The new platform therefore allows it to be reconfigured with a minimum investment, so as to satisfy the multiple needs of its customers, with the constant aim of containing costs and improving quality.

The properties of magnetic levitation technology enable high-precision, fast and wear-free movement.

The advanced technology of the platform allows for accurate dynamic simulation of all project phases already in the pre-project phase, minimizing response times and enabling efficient project development.

This full electrical platform allows accurate virtual commissioning of the entire work cycle to be conducted in a predictive manner, thus allowing Gefit staff to accurately define the multiple assembly phases, albeit in a virtual domain.
