Innovative, economically dynamic - More flexibility with the 7th axis!

In times when direct cooperation between humans and robots is becoming more and more important and robots work directly with humans without a protective fence, can extend the working range of collaborating robots without much effort. By extending the range, it is possible to assign several operations to one robot - a much faster and more economical solution. With the Cobot-Track from the company Winkel, cobots from all brands and a payload of up to 35 kg can be implemented and moved with, so that the solutions can be created quite flexibly for each customer. In order to ensure maximum safety, explicit attention was paid to eliminating danger points when designing these axes. As an additional safety feature, the unit was equipped with sensors so that the axis stops immediately in the case of contact with a person.

Regardless of whether it is a cobot or an industrial robot, the 7th axis brings robotics and linear technology together and creates an automation process that is forward-looking and opens up new efficiency potential. 
As the market leader in linear and handling technology, Winkel GmbH stands for flexible, individual linear axis applications and is expanding its portfolio for lighter applications with the cobot tracks. 
As a leading supplier of heavy-duty systems, Winkel also offers linear axes for large robots with payloads of up to 10 t, both floor-guided and gantry-guided.
