Roll Handling

Optimize roll handling in your packaging and production machinery through automated material supply and eliminate manual intervention.

Mobile manipulators reliably handle the transport and replacement of all types of industrial rolls around the clock. This helps you avoid downtime and sustainably increase the efficiency of your production line.

The Problem

Strenuous Handling of Rolls and Reels

In many production processes, roll handling is still done manually. Switching between large and small rolls ties up valuable staff and often places a physical strain on your employees.

These burdensome tasks lead to bottlenecks, production interruptions, and inefficient processes.

The Solution

Autonomous Role Reversal

Automate your roll handling with mobile robots and intelligent ERT solutions. mobERTs handle autonomous transport as well as the delivery and transfer of rolls to machines.

ERTmiral® As a central fleet management system, it coordinates material flows, prioritizes orders, and ensures seamless integration with existing IT systems. When combined with automated transfer stations, this results in a stable material flow.
