Easy-2-Combine - The New Automation System from Rexroth



Company to display its latest products at IMTS, September 6-13 in Chicago, IL, Booth #D-4320

Directly combinable individual components simplify handling tasks with small parts.

Providing customers with modular solutions for common handling processes is the central idea of the new Easy-2-Combine automation system.

Easy-2-Combine is the solution for multi-axis automation tasks with individual components that can be combined in simple, time-saving assembly steps. This means that the most common applications in assembly technology can now be done with standardized interfaces. Centering elements are used for interlocking mounting and connections for sensors and the air supply are provided at several positions throughout the system, making complicated and expensive connection kits unnecessary. Rexroth has Easy-2-Combine components that can perform linear movements, pneumatically driven rotation movements, as well as gripper functions. Many components feature easily adjusted end position settings, thus drastically reducing final commissioning time. Connection kits to flexibly assemble additional components will also remain in the Rexroth program. As a result of all this, the Easy-2-Combine system is already equipped for expansion. Rexroth's goal is to integrate additional components and sizes in the system Easy-2-Combine for increased handling technology solutions.
