Food service automation

Retail technologies

From the selection of the ingredients to the preparation and serving of food and drinks - with Kitchen Automation (Food Service Automation) all these activities can be carried out by machines. Room linear robots remove ingredients from the shelf, and cooking robots process them. Barista robots brew and serve fresh coffee. And delta robots fix a burger with pick & place.

The rotating, pivoting and linear movements in all these processes are guaranteed with our cost-effective, maintenance-free bearings, gearboxes and low-cost robotic components.

At train stations, airports, in break rooms and increasingly in self-service stores that are open 24 hours a day, vending machines are becoming increasingly popular. There are numerous models, but many of the requirements for the moving parts are the same. Lead screws and nuts, linear rails, plain bearings, gears or cable guides should primarily work reliably, with the least possible maintenance and low costs. This is where our motion plastics come into play.

Whether for raising and lowering the display for facial recognition, swinging back and forth or retracting and extending the barrier, these lubrication-free and maintenance-free products ensure trouble-free movement in automated access control systems: 

► Harnessed readychain e-chains and drylin e-drive technology for display movement
► igubal pillow block bearings for barriers that swing back and forth
► igubal rod ends for retracting and extending barriers
