Die gripper cranes for automotive industry

  • | Engineered for excellence

     

    In the press shops of the automotive industry, more than a million car body parts of various shapes and sizes for multiple models are produced every day. Due to this high variance press die set needs to be changed frequently requiring shorter press-cycles. Hence the slinging of the press dies with conventional slinging equipment such as chains or ropes is being replaced with die grippers enabling fast, compact, and multi-level storage of the pressing dies.

    Konecranes Die gripper cranes is custom designed for die handling application in automotive industry. Die gripper crane is available with trolley equipped with coupled winches, intelligent sensor technology, advanced smart features, precise positioning system helping in high-performance, efficient, and safe transport of press dies.
