High-precision and Ultra-fast High-end Systems
With the latest generation of press removal systems ROBOWORKER has once again increased the precision, speed, functionalities and flexibility of the robot system with the new RL 35/4.
RHA automation systems are designed for lateral removal from powder presses, have a modular design and are equipped with magazine systems as a standard. Other tray handling systems such as transport trolleys or double belt systems can also be integrated on request.
The RHA is designed for use on electric and hydraulic presses.
Basic Machine
- Mineral cast column construction with 4-axis linear robot system RL 35/4, optional addition of 5th/6th axes in gripper
- Robot systems with direct measurement systems at X, Y and Z1 axes

Highly Flexible and Efficient Automation Systems
The RAG automation systems for the lateral unloading of presses are an ideal solution when a large number of sinter trays must be stored and automatically processed. With an extensive range of accessories, the systems can be optimally adapted to the respective requirements.
RAG systems have a modular design and can be equipped with magazine systems, transport trolleys or transport and magazine trolleys. The tray storage in the magazine trolley enables high autonomy times and makes this variant of the RAG particularly interesting for use in the iron powder sector, where the sinter trays can only be filled with a few parts.
The RAG is designed for use on electric and hydraulic presses.

Gripping technology for any precision part
ROBOWORKER has a wide range of grippers for removing sensitive components from the press, deburring, weighing and palletizing them.
Our product range consists of motor-driven
- vacuum/suction grippers
- hole grippers
- parallel grippers
with additional functions such as rotating, turning or tilting.
Depending on the application, double, twofold or manifold grippers are available. All ROBOWORKER grippers have interfaces for suction pieces, part specific suction plates, silicone pieces (balloons), jaws and special insets.
Gripping functions rotating – turning – tilting

Special Grippers
Demanding gripping processes and additional modules for quality assurance before palletizing (e.g. deburring, weighing...) often require special gripper solutions. The following are some examples from our special gripper range.
Multi-Axis Gripper
- For parts that have to be put into special positions
- Rotating – turning – tilting: movements comparable to a 6-axis robot but easier to teach-in and operate
Double Grippers
- For combining two gripping modes
Twofold and Manifold Grippers
- For simultaneous gripping of several parts
Intelligent Cleaning of Press Punches
Regardless of whether the press punches are to be cleaned frequently or only occasionally, ROBOWORKER has the right cleaning solution for both requirements.
The powder residues are brushed off or additionally blown off by compressed air nozzles in the punch cleaner.
The ROBOWORKER cleaning program module allows the user to use product-specific cleaning programs and to parameterize them via the software interface. There are various options for creating a cleaning program - automatically or manually.
Flange-Mounted Punch Cleaner
- At the gripper
- For frequent cleaning processes
Separate Punch Cleaner
- For occasional cleaning processes
- Automatic change between gripper and punch cleaner via gripper station
Brush options
- Cup brushes
- Porcupine brushes
- Paint brushes
- etc.
