The challenge

Textile bobbins are heavy and operators load/unload them dozens of times a day. Fatigue is high and the risk of musculoskeletal disorders is real.

02

The solution

  • SCARA articulated arms with free horizontal movement.
  • Automatic load balancing during loading/unloading — negligible residual effort for the operator.
  • Two versions: fully pneumatic controller for standard cases, or smart electronic Control Box that auto-balances variable loads (empty ↔ full).
  • Continuous speed and position monitoring, automatic lock on anomalies.
  • Slides on overhead rails along the entire creel. Customizable for weight and length.
