Area gantries or gantry robots offer a variety of user benefits in different areas:
Large-area machining: area gantries enable the machining of large workpieces or materials because they have a larger work area. This is especially useful in woodworking, metalworking or cutting sheet materials such as plastics or aluminum.
High precision: Surface gantries provide precise movement and positioning along a surface. This enables accurate machining of workpieces and the achievement of high quality standards. Examples include precision engraving, laser cutting or surface finishing.
Flexibility in workpiece positioning: Surface gantries offer flexibility in positioning workpieces. They can move, rotate or tilt workpieces along the surface for optimal machining or assembly. This is especially beneficial for complex workflows or machining multi-sided workpieces.
Scalability: Area gantries can be scaled according to requirements. They can be adapted to the specific requirements of a use case, be it a smaller work surface for compact applications or a larger surface for more extensive projects.
