The solution needed to adapt flexibly to different packaging units while reliably protecting sensitive surfaces. <\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.6″ text_font=”Source Sans Regular – BKLS||||||||” text_font_size=”16px” header_2_font=”Source Sans Bold – BKLS||||||||” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” global_colors_info=”{}”]

Our solution<\/h2>\n

BKLS developed modular gripper technology for use in automated robot cells. The grippers enable precise picking and placing of bottles and cans into cartons or trays. <\/p>\n

Thanks to the standardized BKLS interface, different gripper tools can be integrated flexibly and adapted to various product requirements. Special surface finishes such as rubber coatings also ensure particularly gentle gripping of sensitive products. <\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_number_counter title=”automated product handling” number=”100″ counter_color=”#2ea3f2″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ title_font=”Source Sans Semi Bold – BKLS||||||||” title_text_color=”gcid-7fa51e00-1a91-4b64-a46a-95719d404fa7″ title_font_size=”20px” number_font=”Source Sans Semi Bold – BKLS||||||||” number_text_color=”gcid-3621c07e-b5a1-4b56-9820-3675ce8dd891″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-3621c07e-b5a1-4b56-9820-3675ce8dd891%22:%91%22number_text_color%22%93,%22gcid-7fa51e00-1a91-4b64-a46a-95719d404fa7%22:%91%22title_text_color%22%93}”][\/et_pb_number_counter][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_number_counter title=”reduced manual handling effort” number=”30″ counter_color=”#2ea3f2″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ title_font=”Source Sans Semi Bold – BKLS||||||||” title_text_color=”gcid-7fa51e00-1a91-4b64-a46a-95719d404fa7″ title_font_size=”20px” number_font=”Source Sans Semi Bold – BKLS||||||||” number_text_color=”gcid-3621c07e-b5a1-4b56-9820-3675ce8dd891″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-3621c07e-b5a1-4b56-9820-3675ce8dd891%22:%91%22number_text_color%22%93,%22gcid-7fa51e00-1a91-4b64-a46a-95719d404fa7%22:%91%22title_text_color%22%93}”][\/et_pb_number_counter][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_number_counter title=”more efficient packaging processes” number=”40″ counter_color=”#2ea3f2″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ title_font=”Source Sans Semi Bold – BKLS||||||||” title_text_color=”gcid-7fa51e00-1a91-4b64-a46a-95719d404fa7″ title_font_size=”20px” number_font=”Source Sans Semi Bold – BKLS||||||||” number_text_color=”gcid-3621c07e-b5a1-4b56-9820-3675ce8dd891″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-3621c07e-b5a1-4b56-9820-3675ce8dd891%22:%91%22number_text_color%22%93,%22gcid-7fa51e00-1a91-4b64-a46a-95719d404fa7%22:%91%22title_text_color%22%93}”][\/et_pb_number_counter][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ background_color=”#f7f7f7″ background_color_gradient_direction=”330deg” border_radii=”on|30px|30px|30px|30px” box_shadow_style=”preset1″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.6″ background_color=”gcid-3621c07e-b5a1-4b56-9820-3675ce8dd891″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” custom_margin=”0px||||false|false” custom_padding=”0px|10px|50px|10px|false|false” border_radii=”on|30px|30px|30px|30px” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-3621c07e-b5a1-4b56-9820-3675ce8dd891%22:%91%22background_color%22%93}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”10%|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.6″ text_font=”Source Sans Bold – BKLS||||||||” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” global_colors_info=”{}”]
