The future of collaboration: Our cobot cells with HRC technology

In modern manufacturing, flexibility is no longer a luxury, but a real competitive advantage. As specialists for the technology of tomorrow, we take your production to the next level with intelligent cobot cells that rely on genuine human-robot collaboration (HRC).

What does HRC mean for your production?

Forget bulky safety fences and rigid barriers. Our HRC solutions enable humans and machines to share the same workspace. The robot becomes your employee’s “third arm”: it takes over tiring, repetitive, or ergonomically taxing tasks, while the human retains process control.

We do not build off-the-shelf standard systems. We develop technologies that fit exactly into your workflow. Our cobot cells are characterised by:

  • Maximum safety: Through integrated sensors, force-torque monitoring, and rounded surfaces, our cells meet the highest safety standards.
  • Space savings: Since safety fences are largely eliminated, our cells can be integrated even into the tightest production environments.
  • Intuitive operation: Thanks to simple teach-in and user-friendly interfaces, your employees can operate the cell themselves after a short briefing.
  • Versatility: Whether assembly, adhesive applications, quality inspection, or pick-and-place – we adapt the gripper and software precisely to your component.

Your advantage: Efficiency without barriers

With our HRC cells, you optimise your cycle times and simultaneously relieve your specialist staff. You are not just investing in a machine, but in a hybrid work system that pays for itself quickly and grows with your requirements.

“We bring the robot out of the cage – directly to the side of your experts.”

Intelligent intralogistics: Our AMRs for your competitive edge

In modern manufacturing, downtime is the greatest enemy of efficiency. While stationary systems form the heart of your production, our Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR) are the nervous system that flexibly connects everything.

As experts, we do not simply integrate AMRs as a “means of transport”, but as fully-fledged, intelligent actors in your value creation process.

Why an AMR revolutionises logistics in your production

In contrast to classic automated guided vehicles (AGVs), our AMRs do not require rails, magnetic strips, or structural changes to your hall. They orient themselves completely independently thanks to state-of-the-art sensors and SLAM technology (Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping).

  • Maximum flexibility: If your layout changes, the AMR learns the new path in minutes.
  • Safety first: Thanks to laser scanners and AI-supported obstacle detection, our robots work safely hand-in-hand with your employees.
  • Seamless integration: We connect the AMR directly to your existing MES or ERP systems.

Our expertise: More than just “standard”

An off-the-shelf AMR rarely solves the specific challenges of special-purpose machine engineering. This is exactly where we come in:

  • Individual superstructures: Whether lifting modules, conveyor belts, cobot arms, or specialised gripping systems – we design the right superstructure for your product.
  • Process automation: We automate the loading and unloading of your special-purpose machines directly via the AMR.
  • Fleet management: We coordinate multiple robots so that they act as a harmonious team and proactively avoid bottlenecks.

Pick-and-place solutions: Precision in every movement

In modern production, time is the most valuable resource. Our bespoke pick-and-place systems are the heart of efficient automation. We develop systems that do not just move components, but place them with the highest repeatability and speed exactly where they are needed.

Intelligent handling for complex processes

Whether the smallest electronic components, sensitive food products, or heavy mechanical components, we understand that every product places individual demands on gripping and positioning technology. Our solutions range from classic linear axes to highly flexible delta or articulated-arm robots.

What distinguishes our pick-and-place systems:

  • Low cycle times: Optimised movement sequences for maximum throughput.
  • Gentle handling: Vacuum, magnetic, or mechanical grippers, exactly matched to your workpieces.
  • Sensor & vision integration: Intelligent camera systems recognise the position and quality of parts in real time (“bin picking”).
  • Seamless integration: Our modules fit perfectly into your existing production lines or as a stand-alone solution.

Your advantage: Efficiency to the point

By automating your pick-and-place operations, you reduce error rates, relieve your staff of monotonous tasks, and significantly increase overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).

“We bring movement to your production – precise, fast, and absolutely process-reliable.”

Bin Picking: Precision in chaos – The intelligent reach into the bin

In modern production, efficiency is the key. But while many processes are already highly automated, one task remained a manual challenge for a long time: removing unsorted components from a container.

As a technology enabler, we solve this problem with state-of-the-art bin-picking systems.
We give robots the ability not only to grip, but to “see” and “think”.

Why bin picking is revolutionising production

In the past, components had to be painstakingly separated or delivered in special trays. This cost time, space, and money. Our bin-picking solutions eliminate this intermediate step:

  • Maximum flexibility: Your components can be delivered as bulk material or in boxes; we take care of the rest.
  • Round-the-clock operation: Our systems work constantly, precisely, and without fatigue.
  • Space optimisation: Less space required for feeding technology means more room for your value creation.

Our technology: The interplay of eyes and mind

A successful “reach into the bin” is far more than a mechanical movement. We integrate high-end components into a turnkey unit:

  • 3D vision sensors: High-resolution camera systems capture the position of every single part in space, no matter how complex the geometry.
  • Intelligent software: Our algorithms calculate collision-free paths in milliseconds and prioritise the most accessible object.
  • Adaptive gripping technology: Whether magnetic, vacuum, or mechanical grippers – we develop the right tool for your specific workpiece.


Every component is different. That’s why we don’t offer off-the-shelf solutions. We analyse your requirements, conduct feasibility studies, and integrate bin picking seamlessly into your existing process chain, from feeding to downstream processing.

Bring order to your logistics. We show you how autonomous your production can really be.

Gripping technology reimagined: Bespoke End-of-Arm Tooling solutions

Precision from the printer, performance on the robot.

In modern automation, flexibility is no longer a luxury, but a prerequisite. We combine decades of engineering know-how with the limitless possibilities of additive manufacturing. The result? Gripping systems for robots and cobots that are exactly as individual as your workpieces.

Why 3D-printed grippers are the better choice

Conventional grippers made of aluminium or steel are often heavy, bulky, and expensive to produce as one-offs. Our 3D printing solutions offer you decisive advantages:

  • Weight optimisation: Through lightweight structures, we massively reduce the mass on the robot arm. This protects the drives, increases speed, and enables the use of smaller (and cheaper) robots or cobots.
  • Functional integration: We print air channels for vacuum grippers or mounts for sensors directly into the housing. No annoying hoses, no unnecessary sources of error.
  • Shape accuracy (form-fit): We scan your component and print the exact matching “fingerprint”. Even highly complex or sensitive geometries are gripped securely and without damage.
  • Rapid prototyping & spare parts: We implement design changes within hours. A replacement gripper is printed overnight – without long lead times for milled parts.

Our expertise for your application

Whether a classic industrial robot or a collaborative cobot – we develop the interface between machine and product.

Feature

Your Benefit

Material variety

From food-safe plastics to carbon-fibre-reinforced materials for maximum rigidity.

Bionic design

We use organic shapes that could not be produced with classic processes to optimise force flows.

Plug & Play

Our grippers arrive ready for assembly, including matching flanges and integrated pneumatics/electronics.

“A gripper should adapt to the workpiece, not the other way around. With 3D printing, we eliminate the compromises of conventional mechanical engineering.”

Palletising: Precision, speed, and flexibility for your logistics

Palletising is the backbone of every production and often a bottleneck.
Harrandt Automation develops bespoke solutions that automate your end-of-line processes. Whether heavy loads in continuous operation or flexible handling in tight spaces: we bring the right robot technology into your hall.

Why automate?

Manual palletising is time-consuming and physically taxing. Our automated systems offer you:

  • Constant cycle times: No drop in performance, even in 3-shift operation.
  • Ergonomics: Protect the health of your employees from heavy lifting tasks.
  • Precision: Perfectly aligned stacking patterns for maximum transport safety.

Industrial robots vs. cobots – which is right for you?

Depending on the requirements, we rely on two different approaches:

Classic robotic palletising (High-speed & heavy-load)

For high throughput and heavy payloads, industrial robot arms are the first choice. In a secured cell, they work at maximum speed and achieve a packing density that is hardly achievable manually.

  • Ideal for: Sacks, heavy boxes, beverage crates, and high cycle rates.
  • Advantage: Maximum output and robustness.


Palletising with cobots (Flexible & space-saving)

Collaborative robots (cobots) are the modern answer to changing requirements and limited space. They work hand-in-hand with your staff without bulky safety fences.

  • Ideal for: Smaller batches, changing locations, and operations with little floor space.
  • Advantage: Simple programming, fast integration, and low space requirements.

Our expertise as your technology enabler

We don’t just deliver the robot. We deliver the solution.

  • Individual gripper technology: We design vacuum, fork, or clamp grippers that are exactly matched to your product.
  • Seamless integration: Connection to your existing conveyor technology and ERP systems.
  • Intelligent software: Simple user interfaces with which your team can create new packing patterns themselves in minutes.

Make your logistics future-proof. Together, we will find out whether a powerhouse or a flexible team player should optimise your palletising.
