The pillars are equipment installed on specific metal racks suitable for loading and unloading the parts through robot.
The specific metal racks are essential means for the transport, handling and storage of car components of every kind.
Product used for the line-side and on truck handling of specific sheets in steel or aluminium in the phase prior to the moulding.
The policy of cost reduction that is more and more felt and applied by the Clients brings to the need to design products with the aim to obtain efficiencies on handling line-side racks.
The working life of a rack is around 6/7 years that is the average duration of production of a car.
The production of specific racks in plastic material has been introduced into our range of products.

Study and virtual simulation
Starting from the 3D model of the component, supplied by the Client, with our CAD systems we are able to carry out feasibility analysis, virtual simulations of ergonomics and capacity in order to optimise the highest number of parts to contain, handle or transport inside the rack so that to guarantee the aesthetical and functional quality.
Project
After the first phase of study and simulation, we carry out the whole 3D design of the rack by making the starting concept a constructive model carried out by following the technical specifications and the requests of the Client.
Drawing
With the definitive 3D model, finally, we carry out the constructive 2D tables that will be used for the realization of the prototypes, where we have the possibility to test the proposed solutions, thanks to the help of our 3D printers reproducing exactly the various drawn supports and components.
Construction of prototype racks
At the end of the phase of designing of the rack and before proceeding with the series productions, the prototype is constructed with the aim to test and validate the technical solutions developed during the engineering process.
Pre-series and Series
After the approval of the prototype, we can proceed with the production of the pre-series and series racks that will be used for the transport of the car components for which they have been designed and carried out.
3D Measurement
Most of the racks we produce are destined to totally automatized car plants. To guarantee the required precision and the relative tolerances allowing the robots to handle the components, we measure all the racks with our 3D measuring machines with 6-axis arm.
