Of the benefits Driverless shuttles for transport routes in the pet food industry

TRAPO enables multiple space benefits through the use of shuttle fleets – by eliminating rigid conveyor lines. As standard, the TRAPO Transport Shuttle (TTS series) transports loads up to 2.000 kg within the production area, higher loads on request. In addition, there is the possibility of adding customer-specific superstructures, such as lifting function, conveyor systems or robots.

TRAPO competence: Safely storing and retrieving pet food in the (high-bay) warehouse

At the high-bay warehouse, one or more TRAPO Warehouse Shuttles (TWS series) accept animal food containers as required. The TWS accelerates at 1.5 m/s² and completes the cycle of extending, gripping and retracting in a maximum of three seconds. The rack system has a modular design and can be flexibly expanded. Consequently, performance can be significantly increased at any time by adding additional TWS and additive lifting devices.

Efficient loading and unloading: One system serves several loading bays

Safe is safe: The TRAPO Loading System (TLS 3600) is a driverless, compact transport system with a lifting unit that can always load three pallets of feed into a truck in parallel – replacing accident-prone forklift traffic. At the ramp, it corrects its position automatically. This continuous, autonomous loading process saves time and distance. The TLS can be moved – and reliably serves several loading hatches.

TRAPO optimizes conveyor line

From individual elements to complete conveyor systems: we optimize the flow of materials – taking into account the special requirements of animal feed production. TRAPO GmbH wrote the first chapter of its success story with conveyor technology. Today, rigid, proven components are just as much a part of the product range as mobile conveyor lines. Made in Germany – the entire portfolio of conveyor systems is manufactured at the headquarters in Gescher-Hochmoor – also in stainless steel on request.

Smart robotics for “colleague” robot

Sometimes two hands are not enough for a task in the pet food industry – in that case, cobots with individual robot grippers lighten the load. The design of the interaction between man and machine is firmly anchored in TRAPO GmbH’s mission statement: to humanize workplaces and achieve production processes of consistently high quality. Cobots provide support as stationary jointed-arm robots, can be moved on rails or achieve maximum mobility – when placed on a shuttle.
